One of the quickest knockouts in BKFC history took place Saturday.
Dillon Winemiller needed only seven seconds to send a stiffened Matthew Maestas crashing to the canvas at BKFC 41. The bout took place as part of the prelims, which took place at 1STBANK Center in Broomfield, Colo., near Denver.
Referee Dan Miragliotta brought the fighters together for the start of the bout. Winemiller immediately moved forward and, with a right hand, stunned Maestas, who staggered backward. Maestas crashed into the ropes and swiftly met a brutal Winemiller combination before he hit the canvas and Miragliotta stepped in.
