There are terrifying finishes, and then there’s what Roland Dunlap did to Obinwa Ikebunna on Friday night at LFA 104.
Late in the first round of their middleweight bout, Dunlap went for a level change and managed to wrap his arms around Ikebunna’s hips. From there, Dunlap lifted Ikebunna off the ground, flipping him upside down and dropping him hard onto the canvas.
The result was a brutal slam knockout at the 4:19 mark. Check this out (via Twitter)

That’s one hell of a finish for just your second professional MMA fight.
Dunlap moved to 2-0, while Ikebunna lost for the second consecutive time and fell to 2-2.
