He first did it at UFC 199 in the closing seconds of his fight against Ricardo Lamas but it’s now become his signature move, especially after Holloway welcomed a violent final exchange with Justin Gaethje in their fight at UFC 300. With one second left on the clock, Holloway delivered a devastating punch that flatlined Gaethje and sent him crashing face-first to the canvas in what has become one of the most viral knockouts in UFC history.
