Bellator 57 Welterweight tournament championship fight between Ben Saunders and Douglas Lima.
Keep those hands up and chin tucked.
Sweettt..liver punch,Bas Rutten must be proud!
snuck that one right in there. out goes the light. sry Ben you were on a roll too.
Ohh!!
Damn, I think that was actually in the solar plexus. I got kicked there once and it dropped me instantly.
Damn, I thought it was on the chin until I read the comment thread and re-watched it a couple times. Sweet body shot, it probably was the solar plexus.
NOOOOO Killlaa B!
I train across the street from ATT Orlando. Right when Ben Saunders came to Orlando from Coconut Creek, I got to chat with him at the gas station for like 10 minutes. No fooling, one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met. That’s why it sucks to see him get KO’d like that. Lima seems to be a class act as well.
Get this guy in the UFC!! Homeboy is crushing everyone in his path!
That was Def on the Chin!
chin
Watching from both angles, it looks like it was a solar plexus shot, but the image gets really blurred and could have been a lower shot (liver). I don’t think it was liver. If anyone has it on the big screen, please check and post here.
Anyway, sweet shot. I feel bad for Saunders as he was on a nice roll, but Lima is a powerhouse.

And thanks again for posting, Bruno!
If you look at the replay of it it was a liver punch NICE!!!
gif shows it, meaty party of the hand between the thumb and index slams into Saunders right eye brow, was not on the chin… or liver…
Liver punch!? You guys know where the liver is right? That shot landed on the chin gentlemen.
Definitely hit him on the chin, his whole head shook right after the shot. It may have grazed his chest at the end though.
Liver shot…? Human anatomy… how does it work?
It definately hit the face before making any contact with the body, if it did at all
Uhhh is right. The slow motion gif shows that the hand actually hits the face before going down to the body. It’s just that it hit him with the wrong part of the hand. Well, if it did the job, who cares if it’s the right or wrong part of the hand, right?
