MMA fans were startled by Shara Magomedov's insane double-spinning back fist KO at UFC 308. The Dagestani didn't waste much time to earn his fourth straight victory in the UFC as he flattened his rival in the very first round of the fight.
Magomedov made his UFC debut at UFC 294 in the same arena hosting the UFC 308 tonight. He managed to get his hand raised at his debut with a unanimous decision victory. However, UFC 308 was a lot more eventful for 'Bullet'.
Magomedov began unleashing his unique striking combinations right from the beginning of the second stanza. There were only a few seconds left in the round when he fired a right-spinning back fist defended by his rival, Arman Pertrosyan. But Magomedov recoiled with lightning speed and threw a left-spinning back fist which caught Petrosyan clean on the elbow and shut his lights out.
An X post from @SpinninBackfist highlighted Magomedov's achievement of scoring a double-spinning back fist at UFC 308. Fans flooded the comments section with amazed expressions.
