    But we got a chance to see another when Rico Ramos scored a sweet come from behind KO over Akifumu Shimoda.

    Check it out...

    In a year that's produced its fair share of spectacular KO's, this certainly deserves to be in the discussion.:deal

    The Ramos KO was gorgeous.

    The way he reset just an inch or two on launch and turned it over... The mechanics... The extension... The impact... ****ing artwork.

    Indeed. It was very nicely set up by the one two that immediately preceded it, and what makes it even more impressive was that it was done against a fighter who had been troubling him up to that point, and showed solid technique in his own right.

    And, let the record show that Shimoda is a tough hombre to even make an attempt to rise.

    Good stuff.
