“The most powerful bantamweight” - Fans shiver at the sight of Jonathan Haggerty’s savage KO of Felipe Lobo
The heated matchup between Jonathan Haggerty and Felipe Lobo in February 2024 at ONE Fight Night 19 ended in the favor of the former, after he scored a third-round TKO finish against the latter.
Haggerty's winning moment was recently reposted by ONE Championship on Instagram, where the ringside view captured the atomic power that 'The General' carries, as they wrote the video's caption with:
"Absolute CALAMITY 🤯 Can "The General" shut down Superlek on September 6 at ONE 168: Denver in similar fashion? 👊 @jhaggerty_"
The money shot of Haggerty was a right-hand punch that instantly sent Lobo crashing down the mat. Lobo failed to beat the count of referee Olivier Coste, which prompted him to stop the fight via TKO finish.
This one-shot power of the British superstar received high praise from fans, particularly from users @alfie_2907, @syahaziz_, @dansmithsdks, @ali_zabaan, and @tjs_personaltraining, who posted positive messages from their comments:
"Haggerty is the most powerful Bantamweight I've ever seen he can shut lights out but it'll be awesome to Watch no matter what"
"Here comes the boom"
"The General can shut anyone down 💪💪👌👌"
"The General is unstoppable. He will break Superlek down.
"He didn't know what planet 🪐 he was on after that lol"
