On a BKFC: KnuckleMania 5 card filled with violent knockouts, Kaine Tomlinson Jr. took things to a new level against Patrick Sullivan.
Tomlinson Jr. needed just 37 seconds to land a vicious overland left that immediately slept Sullivan on Saturday at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, and it was a worrisome scene.
Sullivan was out cold for an extended period after hitting the mat, but eventually he returned to his feet and left the ring under his own power.
