If eating blows in style is an art, then Austin Turpin has already mastered it. The heavyweight slapper is a fan favorite on Dana White‘s Power Slap and has worked his way up the ranks. His spectacular wins come with an added flair of trash-talking and animated scenes. Turpin sure knows how to put on a show for the fans, and he turned in another such performance in his latest fight.

Notably, Turpin and former champion Ayjay Hintz squared off in the headliner at the recently concluded Power Slap 4 at the UFC Apex on August 9. The clash between Hintz and the #2-ranked heavyweight delivered fireworks and fast-paced action. The blows unloaded one after another within brief intervals, thrilling fans. But there was one moment that enthralled them most: when Hintz hurled a slap with all his might. What followed next was a typical Turpin reaction.

Afterward, Turpin picked up a spectacular third-round KO victory, dropping Hintz. In the post-fight interview, he announced, “That was my version of Three Little Pigs, you know. That was me teaching him how to count sheep. That’s all it was.”

The iconic moment from the main event attracted the fans’ attention. It also grabbed the eyeballs of Jon Anik and Kendra Lust.

  • “Lol that was like a girl slap”
  • “How that black dude even get on this????”
  • Hintz hasn’t hit hard at all, he’s on 3 straight losses

However, someone suggested Hintz didn’t take a long enough break from his last KO loss. Further, they suggested, “He shouldn’t compete for at least 6 months, so his brain and chin can recoup”. Last, a comment read, “This is a painful game”.

With his latest win against Hintz, Turpin has inched closer to the heavyweight title. It won’t be long before the slap fighter will face the current champion, Ron ‘Wolverine’ Bata.
