This is a fight Danny O’Connor might want to forget…if he can remember it, that is.
He took a brutal, brain-rattling right hand just 41 seconds into the first round.
Literally a minute earlier his corner probably told him just to take it easy, feel his opponent Gabriel Bracero out, find his range and get through the first stanza unscathed.
But Bracero had other ideas. The 24-2 fighter caught O’Connor with the sweetest of shots, which looks to have put his lights out as soon as it made contact with his face. He hit the deck hard, but luckily he was not seriously hurt.
You won’t see many better knock-outs than that this year.
Except this one, maybe, where the guy gets punched out of the ring into the crowd.
