Shocking! Elijah Smith Floors Toshiomi Kazama Unconscious With Nasty Powerbomb Knockout At UFC Vegas 109; Video

UFC Vegas 109 saw one of the most shocking knockouts in recent memory when Elijah Smith defeated Toshiomi Kazama with a brutal powerbomb-style slam. The fight was part of the prelims, and Kazama had tried to lock in a triangle choke. Smith lifted him high and slammed him to the canvas, knocking him unconscious instantly.

The referee was slow to step in, allowing Smith to land two more punches before stopping the fight, which drew criticism from fans and commentators. Medical staff quickly entered the cage, and Kazama was taken to the hospital. Thankfully, scans showed no serious injuries, and he is expected to recover soon.

For Smith, this win improved his UFC record to 2-0 and his overall MMA record to 9-1. The performance showcased his strength and could push him closer to a spot in the bantamweight rankings.
