Bareknuckle boxing match in Myanmar ends with brutal spinning backfist KO

The last quarter of 2017 has seen some powerful combat sports knockouts and a finish from Southeast Asia could rank with the best of them.

In Myanmar, a Lethwei (a form of bareknuckle boxing) bout ended in definitive fashion when one fighter landed a wicked spinning backfist that left his opponent flat on the mat.

Great KO. Japan has been doing more of these Lethwei events. Very cool.

Lethwei is frikin nasty, surprising none of these guys end up in ufc
People say they all want the truth, but when they are confronted with a truth that disagrees with them, they balk at it as if it were an unwanted zombie apocalypse come to destroy civilization.

There are a few Lethwei guys in ONE C. I remember seeing a fight between them and it was basically just Lethwei with MMA gloves.
