Video | Roland Dunlap scores KO of the year contender with violent slam finish at LFA 104

Roland Dunlap returned to the cage for the first time in over two years this evening at LFA 104 for a middleweight bout with Obinwa Ikebunna.

The contest resulted in ‘knockout of the year’ contender finish, as in the opening round Dunlap (2-0 MMA) managed to pick up and slam Ikebunna (2-2 MMA) down to the canvas, sending him into a state of unconsciousness. The brutal Rampage Jackson-like slam was followed by a series of seemingly unnecessary elbows until the referee finally got in there to stop the fight.
