Todd Duffee vs. Tim Hague – 7 Seconds
The fastest finish in the history of UFC’s heavyweight division belongs to Todd Duffee, who knocked Tim Hague out in August 2009 just seven seconds into the match. This was Duffee’s debut fight in the UFC after winning his previous five fights via knockout from different MMA organizations.
Todd Duffee was super eager to make a lasting impression for his maiden UFC match as he rejected touch gloves from Tim Hague in the pre-match. This hunger led Duffee to record the fastest knockout in the division’s history by landing a stiff left punch that knocked down Hague, then Duffee finished it off with eight ground-and-pound punches to pick up the win.
