The fight didn&#8217;t make it out of the first round, ending violently at 4:09. The cause of the stoppage was a vicious knee from Sheridan&#8217;s Thai clinch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The size difference was apparent from the beginning of the fight, and it was a big problem for Vake (7-3). Sheridan was able to use his reach advantage to land strikes, including the big one. Vake attempted to reach for Sheridan&#8217;s legs, but got caught in a Thai clinch. Sheridan detonated a knee on his face, knocking out the mouthpiece and Vake, causing him to ragdoll to the canvas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Check out the highlight moment below (<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/PFLMMA\/status\/2091281795023040889?s=20\" data-t-l=\":b|z|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\" rel=\"nofollow\">via X<\/a>):<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"gnt_em_cp_cw_i\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" data-gl-src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/1787514904_156_79732437007-91-2748166.jpeg\" data-gl- decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Aug. 22, 2026, 6:06 p.m. ET Eoin Sheridan delivered one of the best knockouts of the year in&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":379210,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[31,132552,151060,151061,32269,343,59179,3644,307,132554,300,8664,135,137,136,34],"class_list":["post-379209","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tampa","tag-accessfree","tag-sourcemma-junkie","tag-sstssportspfl","tag-sstsnpfl","tag-tagboxing","tag-taglocal-affiliate-arts-entertainment","tag-tagmartial-arts","tag-tagonline-video","tag-tagoverall-negative","tag-tagpfl","tag-tagsports-news","tag-tagtampa","tag-tampa","tag-tampa-headlines","tag-tampa-news","tag-typestory"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/379209","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=379209"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/379209\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/379210"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=379209"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=379209"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=379209"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
