There's another one of those "Unknown" knockouts. WHat the fuck, simulator??? Honestly, get a replay machine or something. A Beta machine will suffice, though at this point a blu ray player might be cheaper.
Also, this was on that fine line between maybe it was a flash KO and maybe it was not. I think we'll go with yes, it was a flash KO, cause there was still a good chunk of health left there, even if it was deep yellowish-orange at the time (it goes green, yellow, orange, red, dead).
