DWCS 74 video: Diyar Nurgozhay blasts Bartosz Szewczyk with violent head kick

All was calm and quiet at the UFC Apex until Diyar Nurgozhay pulled a massive head kick out of his bag of tricks.

In the featured light heavyweight bout Tuesday at Dana White’s Contender Series 74, Kazakhstan’s Nurgozhay (10-0) knocked out Poland’s Bartosz Szewczyk (8-3-1) with a beautiful high kick at 3:32 of Round 2.

The fight was pretty calm without much, if any, significant offense. The repetitive, uneventful rhythm quickly blew to smithereens as Nurgozhay landed the big knockout blow midway through Round 2.

Nurgozhay, 27, maintains a perfect undefeated professional record. He’s a former Eagle FC light heavyweight champion and has eight stoppages in 10 wins.

Szewczyk, 27, had a three-fight winning streak snapped, in defeat.
