What is a "knockout"?

A knockout (KO) occurs in combat sports when one fighter is rendered unconscious or unable to continue the fight after being struck by a powerful punch, kick, or strike. This usually happens when the blow to the head or body is forceful enough to cause a loss of consciousness, leaving the opponent unable to defend themselves. A knockout is one of the most decisive ways to end a fight, and it is often celebrated as a display of skill and power. In many combat sports, a KO results in an immediate victory for the fighter who delivered the strike.
