He may only be a Muay Thai fighter, but Steve Walker has singlehandedly got the attention of the entire combat sports world.

Walker produced a highlight reel knockout during his super-cruiserweight title defence at Lion Fight 64 and, well, it's pretty spectacular.

Brian Collette, who was challenging for the 205-pound strap, was sent tumbling into the ropes after copping a tornado kick to the head from Walker.

The reigning champion came out all guns blazing in the first round and landed a flurry of strikes on poor old Collette.

And then, with just 48 seconds gone, Walker decided that enough was enough and ended the fight with a rare tornado kick.

The perfectly-timed kick landed flush on Collette's temple which sent him crashing into the ropes before landing square on the canvas.

Honestly, the move was like something out of an old school video game.

Even the local Kansas crowd roared as Walker wheeled away in celebration.

Unsurprisingly, the knockout instantly went viral online with fight fans across the globe sharing the clip on social media.

Even UFC Fight Pass got on board and shared the video on their channels, simply captioning it: "NO WAAAAY!"
