Fans are left in awe as an ex-boxing champion scores a rare KO on his BACK while competing in MMA

EX-BOXING champion Krzysztof Glowacki scored a stunning knockout from his BACK to win his MMA debut.

Glowacki formerly held the WBO cruiserweight title and in 2016 was beaten by pound-for-pound star Oleksandr Usyk.

The Pole was last seen in the ring against Britain’s Richard Riakporhe, losing in January.

His next fight would be a shock switch to the cage under Polish promotion KSW.

And Glowacki, 36, won it with a rare KO after he was laid on his back on the floor with opponent Patryk Tolkaczewski reining down punches.

But the boxer out of nowhere landed a left hand which caught Tolkaczewski on the chin.

He was out for the count before Glowacki could land any ground and pound with the referee jumping in just in time.

Fans were left awestruck at the way Glowacki managed to land the KO shot from his back.

One said: “How has he got that much power down on his back like that. Epic shot.”

Another added: “This honestly might be the first time I’ve ever seen this.”

One wrote: “Most insane KO I’ve seen in a long time. Wow.”

Another posted: “A KO while being fully mounted is insane and rare as f***.”

On the same night, heavyweight boxer Artur Szpilka – once KO’d by Deontay Wilder – stopped strongman-turned MMA star Mariusz Pudzianowski.
