Watch Justin Watson deliver insane 2-second knockout, fastest finish in BKFC history
Justin Watson might have just set a record that never gets broken.
At BKFC 69 on Friday night, Watson delivered a blistering fast two-second knockout — the fastest in the history of the bare-knuckle promotion — when he blasted Cole Ferrell with a single punch to start and end their fight in rapid-fire fashion.

In a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment, the referee starts the fight, Watson throws an overhand right and Ferrell goes face first down to the canvas.
It doesn’t take the referee long to realize the fight is already over as he waves off the action and Watson begins his celebration.
The stunning two-second knockout tops Uly Diaz, who actually earned a three-second knockout in BKFC back in 2020. That remarkable record seemed like it might stand forever until Watson had something to say about that on Friday.
BKFC co-owner Conor McGregor even celebrated the finish with a message on Instagram stating “the world’s fastest KO! Wow!”
To add even more mystique to Watson’s knockout, he was actually a sizable underdog heading into the fight so he also managed to pull off a considerable upset with the knockout that now goes down in history for BKFC and perhaps all of combat sports.
