The SOUND of this thing, folks! In the final fight of the preliminary card at UFC Fight Night in Moscow, Magomed Ankalaev just tossed up the ultimate exclamation point. In the final minute of the last of three rounds against Dalcha Lungiambula in light heavyweight action, Ankalaev squared up and delivered a violent, jarring head kick that practically removed his opponent from this earth.
HE KICKED HIS CHIN INTO ORBIT! ?

That one doesn't have to be seen to believed as much as it has to be heard. The 205-pound division has itself a proper beast in Ankalaev. SHEESH.

Yeah, can't make this stuff up.
It's hard to think of a better way to send this event into the main card than with such rapturous, overflowing violence. Let us say a prayer to the fight gods-- and for the devastated, defenestrated, discombobulated Dalcha Lungiambula. May you never, ever recall this moment for as long as you may live, sir!
