Video: An Ho lands vicious 14-second head-kick knockout, sends opponent airborne at LFA 135

Flyweight An Ho didn’t waste any time picking up his second professional victory, and did so in brutal fashion.

The 21-year-old prospect improved to 2-0 in his young pro career with a devastating head kick knockout of Matt Barro at Friday’s LFA 135 event in Phoenix. The fight began with both competitors trying to find an early advantage. Barro landed a straight punch before moving in on an overhand right attempt. Ho countered with a head kick that sent Barro flying to the canvas and forced the referee to move in immediately to stop it.

It was the second straight first-round KO win for Ho in 2022, with the other coming at LFA 124 in February. After an impressive amateur run that saw Ho go 7-0 with five finishes in a little under three years, the MMA Lab standout stopped Guilherme Crossi with a spinning backfist finish in his pro debut.
