It's actually a pretty awesome way to end a match. Basically the idea is that you kick an opponent in the leg so hard that it breaks, and the fighter can no longer continue.

While punching someone in the face is always satisfying, what about kicking them in the legs? Undisputed 3 introduces leg kick TKOs, which sounds dumb until you actually accomplish it. It's this dynamic style of play that had me screaming at my screen, be it in exhilaration or absolute rage it was all fantastic. All of the sudden you are in trouble and scrambling. It doesn't matter how well you have performed up to that heart breaking moment where you get caught with an unlucky kick to the face. Knock outs can come from any direction, at anytime, which keeps the player on his toes through every second of every round. It took more than a little while for me to get used to, but the feeling of slipping under an incoming jab, and then countering with a crushing right hook was almost pure bliss. Also included is a new 'Sway' mechanic which allows players to bob and weave around an opponent’s strikes while waiting for the perfect moment to counter. Kicks and knees to the legs and body actually serve a purpose in initiating and defending against take-downs. This opens up the ability to create new and interesting combos to pummel one’s opponent with. It's wildly more responsive with a much wider variety of strikes to choose from. I cannot stress how much better the stand up game is in UFC: Undisputed 3, as opposed to its predecessors.
