The nasty shot forced Sykes to spin around entirely and left him out cold.
And as the commentator even noted, it surely has got to be in contention for the knockout of the year.
The American has certainly made a name for himself with his stunning display – and he was quick to receive praise from the very top afterwards.
He instantly climbed the cage to celebrate after the ref jumped in to stop the fight, and he then spotted Masvidal sat cageside.

And he jumped down to go over and embrace with Gamebred before clambouring back into the cage to get his hand raised officially.
Masvidal will be delighted that his iKON FC promotion is continuing to thrive, but there are still questions surrounding his future in UFC as he prepares for his court date following an alleged altercation with Colby Covington last year.
The fighting star will now at least be allowed to inspect Covington's watch to see if it's real in the latest
The Rolex was allegedly damaged in a street attack by Masvidal in which Covington showed off his chipped tooth and facial injuries after the attack at the Papi Steak restaurant in Miami.
Masvidal and his legal team have raised doubts over whether the watch was real and called it a 'Folex'.
Covington, meanwhile, claims it was worth $95,000 and damaged when he was attacked.
TMZ Sports now report that Masvidal's attorney Bradford Cohen claims a judge has filed a motion to let his team inspect it.
Masvidal allegedly wore a surgical mask and hoodie before sneaking up and attacking his former room-mate.
Police reports revealed Covington had suffered a cracked tooth and other facial injuries, although photos of Masvidal's handiwork have only just seen the light of day.
The images show that Covington's left central incisor was badly chipped and bruising around the welterweight contender's top lip.
Snaps of Covington's injuries came to light as a result of a medical records request from Masvidal's lawyer Cohen.
