Ludwig to now officially hold the record for fastest KO in UFC history

 At UFC 140, Chan Sung Jung tied the 'official fastest KO in UFC history' with his 0:07 second KO of Mark Hominick. The knockout tied that previous 'official record' of Todd Duffe's of Tim Hague at UFC 102. But most hard core fans credit Duane 'Bang' Ludwig with the actual fastest KO in UFC history in his 2006 win over Jonathan Goulet, but the official time keeper marked the time 0:11 seconds, the time at which referee Mario Yamasaki intervened, although the KO had happend at the 0:04 second mark.
Rampant internet discussion aside, Duane Ludwig officially petitioned the Nevada State Athletic Commission to review the bout to determine the actual time for the end of the bout.
Today, the UFC President Dana White tweeted that indeed the record would now belong to Ludwig:
@DUANEBANGCOM @ufc and for x mas you have the fastest KO in UFC history and it will be changed ASAP
