Cage Warriors 186 witnessed a record-breaking 4-second knockout, but it`s generating debate.
Yannick Bahati achieved the fastest KO in the promotion`s history against Charles Joyner in London. Although the quick finish excited the audience, some observers pointed out controversial actions: Bahati appeared to fake a glove touch and held Joyner`s glove before delivering the knockout blow.
MMA veteran Tom Lawlor commented on the incident, calling it a “chump move” despite being within the rules.
Bahati addressed the criticism on Instagram, stating there was no fake glove touch and that he was simply focused on his game plan and winning for his sons.
Their previous fight at Cage Warriors 181 ended in a split draw.
