Brazilian boxer Pedro da Silva Conceição delivered one of the most devastating moments of the year during the MVP Prospects 14 fight card in Orlando, Florida. His brutal second-round finish of Cuban opponent Renny Viamonte has left fans and pundits stunned, with many already labeling it the “knockout of the year.”
The fight, part of Jake Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions showcase streamed on DAZN, saw Conceição time a perfectly executed overhand right in round two. As Viamonte dropped his guard expecting a body shot, Conceição unleashed the punch with full power, snapping his rival’s head back and sending him crashing unconscious to the canvas. Referee Alicia Collins immediately stopped the fight as ringside commentators reacted in shock, calling it one of the scariest knockouts in recent memory.

The clip quickly went viral. Jake Paul himself shared the footage on social media with the caption: “KO of the year?!”Major boxing outlets echoed the sentiment, with Ring Magazine calling it “insane” and Boxing Kingdom declaring simply: “That is the KO of the year.” Most Valuable Promotions also hyped the finish, writing: “KO OF THE YEAR OMG.”
After the fight, an emotional Conceição revealed that the knockout was the result of a carefully prepared strategy. His corner noticed Viamonte dropping his hands for body shots, so they instructed him to aim high—and the plan paid off in spectacular fashion. Conceição, who has been away from his family for two years chasing his boxing dream, described the victory as a gift and expressed hope for a promotional contract and bonus to continue his career under MVP.
