Thomas Almeida’s star continued to shine at “UFC Fight Night 77” when he picked up another big win, this time over Anthony Birchak. The knockout is being touted as a late candidate for knockout of the year and with good reason— it was brutal!

Almeida was looking to secure his twentieth victory in a row when he walked into the octagon with Birchak while climbing the ranks of the bantamweight division. Almeida only needed one round to dispose of his opponent and he turned heads in the process with a beautiful flurry of strikes that led to Birchak collapsing on the mat in an extremely uncomfortable position.

Could this be the knockout of the year? If not, who gets your pick? Share your thoughts in the comment section below!
