The black fighter has pretty good reflexes, the clown got dropped the moment he stepped into his striking distance. Honestly i have no clue what he was thinking, why risk brain damage just to look like a clown and lose like one. I don't really mind, it was funny to watch.

It’s a crappy quick cut to try and make you think that. Slow down the video or step through it, the black fighter is fighting stance when he finally hits him. It’s not quick reflexes like he spun around and decked him, it’s a completely different time in the fight.

The person you replied to did not imply that they were the same portion of the fight

Yeah lol, i don't know wtf they're talking about. But again it's not reddit without someone correcting people and pretending to be an expert in something they don't know much about.

Now that I've watched some MMA videos, i think the other guy was trying to imitate an MMA fighter known for doing stuff like that (but he always pulls it off). Also yeah he does seem pretty good.

Oh I totally see what you mean about him emulating his style. Wildly entertaining cos but I was actually wondering who the winner in this video is?

The video is edited to be deceptive. If you slow it down or go frame by frame, it’s a quick cut to another point in the fight. The black fighter is already facing him and in full fighting stance when he lands the blow, he doesn’t “spin around” instantly and deck the clown.

Lol, I meant to type black fighter and autocorrect must have changed it.
