Is this the world's fastest knockout? MMA rookie hits the deck after ONE SECOND Mar 18, 2014 15:58 By Liam Prenderville

Welterweight Mike Garret connected perfectly with a kick after 1.13 seconds in London on Friday night to leave his opponent grounded and seeing stars

Getting off to a good start is everything in sport but MMA star Sam Heron obviously didn't read the manual.

After a lengthy build-up to his welterweight bout with Mike Garret, the 21-year-old was knocked out after just ONE SECOND.

Favourite Garret connected with a kick to devastating effect, leaving his opponent on the deck in the fastest-ever knockout - trouncing the previous five-second record.

Heron was still struggling to get his bearings back as he received treatment from medics, before shaking his head as the victor was announced.

In fairness to the battered and bruised fighter, he appeared considerably slighter than his rival pre-bout but nobody would have expected the outcome.

Something tells us he will be spending some time in the gym after this. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/other-sports/mma/fastest-knockout-video-sam-heron-3256226#ixzz2wS7fSFSi
