Jorge Masvidal knocks out Ben Askren in five seconds at UFC 239

On July 6, 2019, Jorge Masvidal scored the fastest knockout in UFC history at UFC 239 held at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Masvidal launched a flying knee at Ben Askren just five seconds into the fight, stunning the crowd and ending Askren's undefeated streak of 19-0. Following the knockout, Askren's UFC career was short-lived, fighting only once more before departing the sport. Masvidal, who earned the BMF title during a successful year, has since faced challenges, losing four consecutive matches and shifting his focus to boxing and other ventures.
