ONE Championship prospect Idris Abdurashitov scored a vicious head kick knockout over the weekend but there was only one problem — he did it in a boxing match.
The unbelievable footage that surfaced from the weekend shows Abdurashitov engaged in a boxing match with Bagher Faraji, an Iranian boxer with a 1-3 record overall, when the head kick is delivered to end the fight.

It was a wild exchange with Abdurashitov uncorking the head kick at the end of the sequence and Faraji immediately crumbling to the canvas after.
Abdurashitov was disqualified for his actions, but that didn’t stop him from posting the clip on his Instagram page to highlight the knockout.

The abysmal decision to throw the head kick adds a rather significant black mark on what was starting out as a promising résumé in MMA for Abdurashitov after he went 4-0 to start his career, including a stoppage in in his ONE Championship debut in September.
