Kickboxer face-plants opponent with humongous KO

Belgian kickboxer Marat Grigorian has produced one of the biggest knockouts of 2016, flooring his opponent with a brutal head kick.

Taking on Coulibaly Djime at Glory 30, Grigorian finished the fight in truly spectacular fashion.

With Djime pressed against the ropes, the Frenchman ducked a Grigorain punch but left his head wide open for the kick.

He took a slow-motion nose dive straight into the canvas, the referee immediately calling the contest off.

"Oh man, he caught him flush. Right... head... kick knockout. Marat Grigorian just put Djime in airplane mode."

Classic stuff.

It certainly has been the year of the knockout:
