Upset of the year! The undefeated boxer was winning the fight, but sensationally got knocked out with a heavy headbutt into the ring. Video

American lightweight Ashton Sylv (11-1, 9 KOs) sensationally lost a brutal knockout to Canadian Lucas Bahda (17-0, 15 KOs). The fight at the Amalie Arena in Tampa (USA) ended early.

The 20-year-old and super-talented Sylv seized the initiative from the first minutes, completely breaking down his opponent's defense. Bakhti lost all five rounds on points without a chance, showing nothing in the attack.

Sylv worked with combinations, used great angles of attack and moved quickly on his feet, leaving his opponent no chance.

The sensational denouement came in the 6th round. Ashton was so excited that he made a single mistake that cost him the victory. Having missed two consecutive crosses, the boxer fell unconscious head first into the ring.

In the comments, fans were impressed with the outcome, calling the situation the upset of the year and the best knockout of the last 12 months.
