Moroccan Karate Champion Delivers Brutal Knockout in Orlando Bout

The Moroccan karateka Achraf Ouchen brutally knocked out his rival Elhadji Ndour, who had to be treated after their fight in Orlando, Florida.
It was an intense, spectacular and fiercely contested fight between Achraf Ouchen, gold medalist of the African Games for Morocco, and Elhadji Ndour. Their first fight dates back to 2018 and had been won by Ouchen. From the start of the fight, the violent blows followed one another. In the second round, the Moroccan karateka takes the advantage over his opponent, the Senegalese Elhadji Ndour. He lands a straight right that pushes Ndour back. The latter is hit. The blood flows. Ouchen takes the opportunity to chain the strikes.
The referee finally had to intervene to suspend the fight in front of the eyes of UFC legends Georges St-Pierre and Bas Rutten, reports The Sun. The medical staff treated the Senegalese Ndour and helped him get up, a few minutes after being knocked out.
"It showed how much heart they both have. They endured incredible pain in this fight. They both hit each other with a lot of force, a lot of force. It was a tough fight for both guys," said St-Pierre. "I was the winner of our first fight, I came here this time; new person, new fighting style, new strike. I promised to give you a great show and I hope I did. I promised and I’m super excited about that," commented Achraf Ouchen.
