Run, Forrest Griffin, run!

Why didn’t he just side-step out of the way? He would have saved himself from presumably having to get his jaw wired shut.

There’s something extremely entertaining about a man running at full sprint towards his opponent and delivering a devastating haymaker that knocks him out cold. Wait, no, let me start again. Everything about this clip is massively entertaining. If this were a cartoon, the losing fighter would have little birds circling around his dome after eating that huge shot.

Still though, as impressive as the knockout is, why didn’t he just move out of the way? Hindsight’s always 20/20, Is suppose.
