Kickboxer Thinks Fight Is Over On A Knockdown So He Straight Up Leaves The Ring - Comes Back, Finishes It For Good

Former GLORY Welterweight Champion Cedric Doumbe just beat the absolute fuck out of Harut Grigorian to regain the kickboxing championship he’s yearned for since having it slip through his fingers in August of 2017 via a split decision loss to Murthel Groenhart, and his performance tonight at GLORY 64 was so dominant…that he almost got himself disqualified in the midst of it!

After knocking Grigorian down a second time in round two – even after this devastating flooring of the champ…

…Doumbe decided the fight was over and done with, albeit the referee not agreeing – so he just left. Walked right outta the squared circle to celebrate his title win with the fans in attendance, completely oblivious to the fact that he wasn’t done fighting!

Generally, a stunt like this could get you disqualified, but Doumbe luckily got off scot-free (although he received a warranted mouthful from the commentary team, straight up calling him an idiot, which was hilarious), and the Cameroonian finished the fight shortly afterwards, cementing his win with both himself, and the referee this time around.

Pretty hilarious clip for a Saturday evening. Hope y’all are enjoying the weekend.

UFC has a pretty decent card on ESPN+ tonight (prelims on right now) headlined by Derrick “The Black Beast” Lewis vs Junior Dos Santos – 8pm Main Card start time – that I’ll be covering on the blog if you’re interested in that sorta thing.

P.S. In fairness to Cedric…this mothafucka was out exactly when he thought he was:
