PUBLICITY:

A brutal knockout with a kick is something that fans will almost always be excited about, unless it happens in a boxing match. That's exactly what happened in the duel between ONE Championship prospect Idris Abdurashitov and Iranian national boxer Bagher Faraji at an event held last Sunday (20) at the Western Boxing Gym in Phuket, Thailand.

Pressured by a series of blows from his opponent, Abdurashitov surprised everyone by delivering a brutal high kick to Faraji's face, who, for obvious reasons, was not expecting such a move and ended up brutally knocked out. Immediately after the knockout, Abdurashitov turned his back and walked back to his corner while the referee of the fight signaled the immediate disqualification of the athlete.

However, anyone who thinks that Abdurashitov's impulsive action caused some kind of regret in the Russian is mistaken. After the fight, the athlete used social media to publish the video of the knockout and brag about what happened.

“So I debuted in professional boxing and I was already disqualified forever. That leg kick I threw like a machine gun,” wrote the Russian in the caption of the post.

Idris Abdurashito is 21 years old and has a professional record of four wins in four MMA fights, all by knockout. The Russian recently made his ONE Championship debut with a victory over Kazakbai Tilenov.
