Sometimes if you blink while watching MMA, you miss something significant in a fight. In this particular case, you would have missed the entire bout.
On the main card of Titan FC 83 at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla., Luis Hernandez needed to land only one strike to finish his welterweight fight against Brian Topp.
Hernandez (3-0 MMA) immediately offered a lightning-quick head kick as the fighters met in the center. It connected cleanly, and Topp (1-5 MMA) crashed to the canvas, ending the fight officially in just one second.

Hernandez, 26, isn’t one to spend a lot of time in the cage.
So far in his young professional career, all of his bouts have ended in the first round, including most of his amateur fights. His first pro fight lasted 65 seconds, while his second went 3:20 into Round 1. But in his third fight, he set the bar so incredibly high, he can only hope to tie the one-second magic again in the future.
