Viral KO Victim Impa Kasanganay Wins $1 Million at PFL Championships, Calls out Francis Ngannou

Impa Kasanganay, the victim of one of the most notorious knockouts in UFC history, is now a millionaire.

In October 2020, Impa Kasanganay suffered a brutal loss via a jump spinning back kick courtesy of Joaquin Buckley. The finish earned Knockout of the Year honors and has been watched tens of millions of times online. The loss would ultimately lead to Kasanganay’s release from the UFC.

On Friday night, all of that was firmly placed in the past as ‘Tshilobo’ earned his fifth-straight win inside the PFL Smart Cage since making his promotional debut as part of the Challenger Series in March.
