Just watching UFC 100 greatest fights and it got to number 18, Chuck vs Tito 1, and I got to thinking 'I think that is my favourite finish EVER in the UFC.'
it's at 1:02 of this video:
What is your favourite UFC finish ever?
EDIT:Honourable mention to Scott smith vs Pete Sell
Or Evans vs Machida. The way he just flopped over after getting kicked in the head was awesome.
A more recent one that I loved would be Nogueira vs Brendan Schaub. I think I liked that one more because of everything leading up to it than the knockout itself. Nog had been looking lackluster in his last few fights, and Schaub was coming off a win over another PRIDE legend in Cro Cop. I was fully expecting this fight to go the same way. All that coupled with the fight being in front of a great Brazil crowd made it an amazing moment.
Going old school here My favorite MMA finish has to be Ken shamrock vs matt Hume. In the end of the fight Ken literallypicked upmatt and fliped him the got the kamura victory
In the ufc I love watching the bisping vs hendo ko but if I am thinking about the right fight I may have to go frank vs jerky horn I think he pulled off a cool knee bar.
A couple for me that I don't think I saw:
Liddell-Couture II and III
Rothwell-Schaub
Aldo-Swanson
Condit-Stun Gun
MacDonald-Torres
Condit-Hary-Condit got there a spilt sooner than Dan
A. Silva-Forrest Anderson clowned him before finishing him with ease.
Think of more will post later.
It was like...what ever landed was going to be amazing, Thompson's spinning backfist or Edwards Kick. Would of made for a sensational double knockout :laugh:
Barboza/Etim was epic obviously.
Machida/Couture
Silva/Belfort (Even though I am a MASSIVE Belfort fan)
Maia/Sonnen
Maia/Herman
Nick Diaz/Gomi (It being overturned was BS)
Big Nog/Schuab (Not because it was epic, but because it felt so good to see)
Evans/Salmon
Liddell/Babalu
Lesnar beating Mir because I knew it was the biggest event in UFC history and being a Brock fan and hating Mir, that was rewarding to see. Another was Bones finishing off Shogun to win the title.
For fighters that I am not a fan of though, Silva's KO of Belfort has to take the cake.
Machida/Couture
Barboza/Etim
Varner/Barboza
Thompson/Stittgen
Oliviera's calf slicer
Zombie's twister
McKenzie's guillotine
Mir's Kimura on Nog
Silva front kick and griffin knockout
Edgar/Maynard
Dos Santos/ Velasquez
Struve/ Herman
Royce/Shamrock
Diaz/ Pellegrino
(soon to come)
Magalhaes finishes Pokrajac
Swanson/Oliviera should end spectacularly
Diaz subbing Henderson
the first fight was also great.... too bad the third one was duller than watching yellow paint dry.
