Mirko "Cro Cop's" left foot was the most feared weapon in MMA for several years. When his left round kick connected to a victim's head, in medical terms the "blunt force trauma" that was imposed on the cranium of said opponent was sufficient to induce unconsciousness in the victim.

In street terms when "Cro Cop's" left round kick connected to an opponents head, his ass was Knocked out.

Same results. Different terminology.
