Chris Barnett delivered one of the craziest knockouts in recent times. Barnett met Gian Villante in a heavyweight clash in the UFC 268 prelims. Villante was fighting in his last fight and got stopped by an amazing spinning wheel kick in the second round.

The fight started slowly, as both men were trying to find their range. Villante looked the more comfortable fighter in the first round. However, as he did not land much damage, it made Barnett more comfortable.

After the break, ‘Beastboy’ landed a beautiful spinning wheel kick to send Villante crashing to the mat. Barnett landed some strong ground and pound after the kick, which led to the stoppage of the fight.

This was Barnett‘s first win in the UFC. ‘Huggy Bear’ looked hyped and ready for the fight from the start. He danced his way to the octagon and looked more than confident.
