BKFC Manchester featured an absolutely brutal knockout.
In a 200-pound matchup on Saturday’s card, Conor Cooke obliterated opponent Stevie Taylor in the first round. After a brief pause in the action, the referee re-started things with less than 30 seconds left in Round 1, where Cooke delivered a nasty right hand on the button of Taylor — which led to Taylor falling to the mat like a tree in the wilderness, and the end of the fight.

Cooke appears to have found a home in the world of bare-knuckle boxing as he improves his BKFC record to 5-1 overall, including four knockouts. Cooke had an up-and-down MMA run, winning just six of 13 pro mixed martial arts bouts between 2010 and 2015, including stoppage losses in four of his past five outings.
Taylor competed in the BKFC ring for the second time after getting a fourth-round finish in his BKFC Prospect Series bout this past June.
