Carlos Condit took away Dong Hyun Kim’s undefeated record in the most sensational way, delivering a flying knee which connected flush before finishing his opponent with strikes.

During a night of incredible finishes, theam Greg Jackson trained fighter left no doubts as to where the Knockout of the Night bonus would be headed.

The winner of last night’s fight was tipped to be thrust in to the middle of the title mix at 170lbs and Condit raised his stock in a big way with his impressive finish.

Kim’s relentless grappling style has made some very credible opponents look bad against him as he grinds out victories. However, Condit was not to be denied.

“The Natural Born Killer” is always an extremely popular fighter given his fan-friendly fighting style, but a stunning knockout like this is sure to put even more steam behind him as he pushes for a title shot against welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre.

Check out the .gif below for the perfectly timed flying knee.
