Muay Thai: A viral knockout

Just like in mixed martial arts, in muay thai we can witness great knockouts, as it naturally involves strikes combined with limbs (arms and legs). Now, a fight in this discipline has gone viral on Facebook.

In a muay thai event in Thailand, Siam Petchnapachai defeated Chor Rungsanchai with a brutal flying kick. The impressive knockout not only surprised the spectators, but also the users on Facebook, who made the video go viral.

As the third round of the match began, Petchnapachai showcased his kicking technique and went all out for a 'flying kick'. The strike landed directly on his opponent's face, causing him to collapse and unable to get back up.

Immediately, the referee stopped the fight and called for medical attention for Rungsanchai. On Facebook, thousands of users compared Petchnapachai's kick to Liu Kang's from the Mortal Kombat saga.
