8. Eddie Wineland vs. Ken Stone
WEC 53
Dec. 16, 2010 | Glendale, Ariz.


The final World Extreme Cagefighting event was headlined and highlighted by the sensational five-round matchup between Anthony Pettis and Benson Henderson. The “Showtime Kick” received all the attention -- and deservedly so -- but WEC 53 was also the site of a hellacious knockout that brought back memories of Quinton Jackson-Ricardo Arona in Pride Fighting Championships.

Stone kept Wineland at bay with a series of inside leg kicks, only to have the former WEC champion denied his takedown advances. Stone instead jumped guard, but Wineland refused to go to the canvas and instead walked him over to the cage. The American Top Team rep lost his attempted guillotine, and as soon as Wineland’s head popped free, he slammed Stone as hard as he could onto his back, knocking him senseless 2:11 into round one.
