Watch fighter Justin Watson produce ‘fastest knockout EVER’ with just one punch in Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship
BARE-KNUCKLE boxer Justin Watson produced what’s been described as the “fastest knockout” in combat sports history.
‘The Warmonger’ locked horns with Cole Ferrell on a stacked BKFC 69 card in Atlanta, Georgia early on Saturday morning.
But their featherweight showdown lasted the blink of an eye as Watson took Ferrell out with a single punch.
Waston separated his opponent from consciousness with a hellacious overhand right that you would have missed if you’d blinked.
The stunning KO came in at staggering 2.9 seconds and, understandably, went viral.
One stunned viewer of the knockout wrote on X along with the famous ‘Friday’ meme: “Damn.”
Another said: “[That’s] insane.”
And another said: “Holy s**t.”
One remarked: “Me clocking out of work the first second possible.”
Another chimed in: “You can make the argument that is a 1.30 seconds KO.”

Watson’s incredibly quick night at the office even drew a reaction from BKFC co-owner and UFC superstar Conor McGregor.
The Notorious shared a video of Watson’s wicked shot to his Instagram story and wrote: “The world’s fastest KO! Wow!”
It’s not been verified yet, but Watson’s knockout is a strong contender to be the fastest in combat sports history.
It has, however, been confimed as the quickest in BKFC’s six-year history.
Watson produced a celebration worthy of the KO, performing a cutting-throat gesture before cupping his hands to his ears.
And he was proud as punch of his night’s work.
He told Jais Sports Takes: “It’s exactly what I came to do.
“I knew what I was coming to do and the plan worked.”
