It drives cornermen mad to see their fighters trying to strike from the bottom rather than attempt to improve position.

But we don't think Rami Hamed's coaches will be too bothered considering that the Lebanese fighter has the kind of knockout power that defies gravity. Hamed upped his professional record to 2-0 by generating surprising power from his back that saw an uppercut sneak through and connect with the chin of opponent Walid Akrouh, knocking him out cold. A grazing shot to the cheek forced the already unconscious Moroccan to his back before Hamed finished up with some ground-and-pound exclamation points. The spectacular finish took place at a Desert Force event in Jordan last week and it's truly something to behold.
