VINE: Superman punch of Hisaki Kato leads to one of the cleanest knockouts you’ll ever see

Out before he hit the mat

A strike so amazing that they named it after a superhero.

Hisaki Kato landed a picture-perfect Superman punch on the chin of pro kickboxer Joe Schilling on the main card of Bellator 139 last night.

Schilling stiffened before he hit the canvas and his unconsciousness was confirmed by an unnecessary second punch from the 5-1 Japanese fighter.

The knockout was one of the highlights of an event that was headlined by former UFC heavyweight contender Cheick Kongo.
