Watch: Fighter scores flush spinning back fist KO at Pancrase 286

Feel free to add Yusaku Inoue to the shortlist of Knockout of the Year contenders.

The 28-year-old needed just north of two minutes to record the highlight-reel finish at Pancrase 286 in Tokyo on Saturday, dropping a charging Takashi Umehara with a spinning back first that caught him flush upside the dome.

Inoue would have made the KO even sweeter had he casually walked off knowing his business was done instead of kicking Umehara while he was down.
