"Taekwondo competitor from the Central African Republic was hospitalized Friday after being knocked out during a preliminary bout.

Bertrand Gbongou Liango was kicked in the left side of the head by Tuncay Caliskan of Austria during their 150-pound (68 kg) bout. He fell face-down to the mat, then lay motionless while being counted out. He was carried off on a stretcher.

Liango, 22, was unconscious but breathing as he was carried off, a venue manager said. He was undergoing tests at Tzanio Hospital. "

I actually superkicked a guy once.
All it did was leave a nasty sneaker mark on his face... but god it was worth it.

And to add insult to injury according to the article he was winning 4-1 in the final round before he got knocked out...

This thread has everything to do with pure pwnage, and not the olympics itself. I'm not interested in the olympics. Only pwnage.

Next guy to create a brand new thread for an Olympic-related topic instead of using the sticky is getting booted until after the Games. Nothing personal.

Just saying.
