Okay, so I’ve been a huge UFC fan for years, and I’m always looking for crazy stats and records. I got curious about the fastest knockout ever, like, who holds that record? How fast was it? So, I decided to spend my time to dig into it, and I’m going to walk you through what I did.
My Research Process
First, I just do a search. I wanted to see the official record and get the basic information down. I typed in “fastest knockout in UFC” and boom, the answer was right there.
Then, I spent sometime to watch video to confirm it:
- I watched the fight. No point in knowing the record without seeing it, right? The video was crazy short!
- I looked for different angles. Sometimes, the broadcast view misses stuff, so I wanted to see if there were fan recordings or alternate angles.
- I paid attention to the official time. I double-checked the time announced in the video against what I’d found on search page.
My Notes and Things to Find
I started taking notes, I wanted to remember this:
- Who: Name of the fighters involved.
- When: Date and event name.
- How: The type of strike that caused the knockout (punch, kick, knee, etc.).
- Time: I wanted the exact time, down to the second.
Confirming and Double-Checking
After that, I check different webs. I wanted to make absolutely sure I had everything right. There’s a lot of random info out there, and I didn’t want to get anything wrong.
That’s pretty much it! It wasn’t a super complicated process, but it was cool to see how quickly I could find and verify this information. I felt like a little bit of a sports detective, and who knows, maybe this will come in handy for a trivia night someday!
