Sweep the leg, bitch.
Apparently this kick knocked out Couture's crown.
from SB Nation:
"It looked like he started to throw a front kick with his left leg and kind of jumped into that crane kick thing, which comes purely from karate," said Couture. "It wasn't anything I'd seen in practice ever. I don't think anyone's seen someone do that in an MMA fight."
The kick landed flush on Couture's mouth, dislodging a crown from his bridge.
"I thought it was a punch," said Couture, who described a "flash" knockdown, but no loss of consciousness. "With his front kick, he'll follow up with a punch almost at the same time. We were prepared for that, so I thought I'd missed that [combination]."
