I went to a casino outside of cincinnati called Belltara to watch my roomates little brother (he's 19) fight.

It was fucking awesome. In the first round he took a few punches to the face, one of which stunned him and brought him to one knee. Luckily the ref didn't call the fight (they called some of the other fights a little more premature than what I see on TV) and the other guy was slow to take advantage of him being stunned.

THe other guy was the better striker, but the end of the first round and the next round the wrestling skills of my roomates brother (his whole family of 6 brothers all are good wrestlers) started to kick in. The other guy had a stockier frame but he couldn't handle him on the ground. My roomates little brother got on his back, threw two punches and quickly choked him out.

It was pretty cool to watch. The rest of the fights were pretty good too.....one was done in like 10 seconds...an asian guy knee'd this white dude right in the face and knocked him on his ass. IT was kind of funny because the white dude charged like an idiot without even feeling his opponent out.

My friend Shane fights on an amateur circuit around here. He's pretty good, too, he's gotten some title shots and even held the title for a while. I saw him fight a few times. He's a good striker and a decent ground fighter, so he wins most of his fights by knockout.

I've seen a few one-hit knockouts, too. My favorite one was one time when a match started, and one of the fighters just ran across the ring, jumped and kneed the other guy in the face. One hit, fight was over.
