VINE: Underdog Matt Dwyer knocks out William Macario with perfect Superman punch

That's rare

Darragh Murphy

There are some striking techniques that are pretty to watch but seldom finish fights. And we always thought that the Superman punch was one of them.

But Matt Dwyer shut us right up.

The Canadian welterweight project sent his opponent William Macario faceplanting into the mat after landing this stunning Superman punch to the Brazilian’s temple.

Dwyer (8-2) was one of the bigger underdogs on the card of UFC Fight Night 61 in Brazil but oddsmakers don’t take strikes like this into account.
