That last shot from the second clip was probably the lightest ground and pound ive ever seen but respect for the guy that he saw his opponent was clearly unconscious and that he controlled his power
WHy can this dude NOT get a break!!??? idk its beyond me,.. the fates HATE this dude.. Please let him fight someone of REAL caliber like Makhachev.. I know you fan boys that are in touch with reality will KNOW this sounds like a terrible Idea.. But I propose to you this.. IF somehow he can beat an opponent like Makhachev? Well THEN.. Then the young man will be taken seriously.. So far he caught a winged champion with bad knees, and a washed up shit talker without any juice to back his big ass mouth.. EVERYONE KNOWS if regular COlby showed up to that fight? He was getting his ass kicked.. SO don't run from Islam.. Embrace it.. IF YOU BELIEVE HE IS AS GOOD AS YOU SAY HE IS!!!
Yair’s finish of Zombie still stuns me to this day because Yair was 1 second away from losing that fight on the cards before he KO’d him with that upward elbow. It was crazy.
Having the will to stay in the game no matter how much it sucks, and to persevere and come out on top is something every human can relate to not just in fighting but in life. Its why we all love the Rocky movies, why we all love a great comeback story. We can all put ourselves in there.
Tim Boetsch' clinch uppercuts on Okami are still my favorite clinch shots of all time. Just a crazy angle, so much torque in Tim's punch, that twist in his core just driving that fist harder and harder as it has a country mile of swinging arc to gain momentum. 'BAM. BAM. BAM.' It's just really fucking cool. MMA is really cool.
Leons corner is the reason he got the win, if he had some yes men on his corner telling him he’s good he would have just waited for the fight to end, best cornering Ive seen in my life
Tbh I don't think the corner played much of a factor since it's not like Leon stood up lazer focused & running Usman down. The kick was pure muscle memory from countless hours in the gym so ya coaches played big role there but the 5th rd pep talk didn't seem to have much effect (imo that is lol)
As much as I wanted Jon to beat Gane and was ridiculously impressed by his performance, when I was watching at 6AM UK time with a bunch of friends who aren't into MMA who were ultimately disappointed by how quickly and uneventfully the fight ended I did wish for moments like this
@@StevekatThomanov it's Blaydes' own fault, diving head first into derrick lewis with no takedown set up, heavyweight is just a garbage division with few technical fighters.
@@StevekatThomanov Honestly him and Spivak are probably the only ones with the wrestling to make it outta the first round or two, Stipe might too but he’s 41 and deep in his career so idk about him.
I think Yair's KO on Zombie is the craziest (non accidental) KO ive ever seen but imo Edwards KO on Usman is the GREATEST KO in UFC history. The circumstances and pressure of that moment mixed with the incredibly perfect technique displayed in that one is just legendary.
It's the way he'd been setting it up for well over a round and nobody but him knew it, either that or he'd seen how Kamaru was reacting to that straight and adapted, either way super impressive
@@wsemenske no it wasn't.... You people crack me up... He literally landed the same shot in other fights, he threw it on purpose and it landed AKA not an accident genius
That Miesha win was magic. I was proper routing for her on the night, after 3 bad defeats to Ronda for the title, to have the grit to come back from a 3 round deficit a snatch that choke against the girl that decapitated Ronda in her last fight basically justified her career. Top quality fight 👌🏽
A hail mary takedown for a hail mary finish only to be absolutely bodied by Nunes in the following fight, no, it wasn't a fight, it was a slaughter, the lioness ate well that night
@@zwergz1122 that doesn’t take away what she accomplished that night. She became a champ which very few fighters achieve . A person like you trying to disparage her name means nothing lol
Elkins finishing Bektic is possibly my favorite finish of all time. Him letting out that roar as his face is completely destroyed gives me chills every time.
I still legitimately think the final shot derrick landed was the last power punch he had, 100% if Volkov just backed up 1 step Lewis was probably done, thank goodness he didn’t though, what a comeback that was to see live, I never have screamed louder.
@@bu11ymaguire i get what you’re saying, but it’s not like he didnt earn his top 5 spot… he was under dog in every fight and still ko’d much more talented fighters like volkov and slept curtis blades. Hard to deny him when he does stuff like that to guys like blades, heavyweight power can always the be equalizer
Imagine being jacked as fuck like Duffee, and get KO’d by fat guy and instead of a leaping fist of doom like Hendo or a fucking lightning strike like Ngannou.. He just boops you on the chin while you sleeping. 💀💀💀 my boy got violated
Edwards corner “pull that shit out of the fire!” Quote is so unbelievably GOATed, easily the most iconic and emotional set of events in the history of the UFC, literally like something out of a movie, a Rocky movie ;)
@@inxm-hs if i remember correctly that was jon anik saying leon isnt the type to just give up in the 5th. so i wouldnt say that it was an insult to leon
Unbelievable Craig tapped Ankalaev faster than Leon KOing Usman with a kick to the head, even though Craig was already half way to the Shadow Realm, from the bottom, with hammers raining down on his face, by Ankalaev. And he tapped him between the 10th and 9th seconds, right after the 10 second warning bell, too!
I think the craziest shit abt the yair KO was that Korean zombie fell for yairs trick. If you pay attention he made TKZ let his guard down with the playful fist bump/ glove touch. As if to say “a few more seconds huh? Let’s put it all on the line” he shrugs at Tkz and you can see Tkz shrug back and think “well alright fuck it 10 seconds🤷🏽♂️” and he storms yair and gets caught with the elbow.
Saying Tate was behind Holm heading into the 5th is a little misleading, though. All three judges gave her a 10-8 Round 2, so she was down 38-37. The worst she could have gotten was a draw, and a win was possible if she had another 10-8 in the fifth (which she very well could have if Holm had avoided the choke).
1:22 Most incredible movie-like punch I have ever seen. If that were in a movie, I would say "No way! Give me a refund right now! There's no way this could possibly happen!"
Everything surrounding that Silva triangle is beyond impossible to believe. Silva being dominated? Impossible. Silva coming out of now where to win after being destroyed for over 20 minutes. No way. Silva quadrupling his already astronomical legacy? How he was already the goat. Just insane
The scene at 3:39 is just hilarious. The single most unfortunate position to get knocked out into by a guy with “THE DAMAGE” tattooed across his chest. 😂
I love the little extra love tap on the second fight lol. Alot of respect there. Wanted to make is visually clear that he was done but didnt want to hurt the guy more than he did already.
I'm a huge Condit fan but that stoppage against Rory was terrible..... 9 seconds left in a fight Rory was winning and he's not even taking hard shots, let him finish the damn fight....
It was nice seeing Tate being able to hold that belt. Crazy thing is Holm didn't even have to take that fight, she just wanted to stay busy. Crazy how things work out.
It's super sad seeing how Roger huerta's career fell apart shortly after that win. He was clearly talented and had the heart and skills. Now he just fights for a paycheque to keep afloat.
@@NinjaDildoShow if you've had to watch your mum struggle to raise you alone it's easy to imagine the joy of that call, he was happy about telling his mum he'd done it and she'd never have to worry about anything again cause they're sorted. Can't imagine what typa person finds that cringe.
@@seldom_bucket yeah, well my mom abandoned me for some dick that was cheating on his wife with her, so him calling his mom reminds me of the one who gave me away.
It was so nice of Chael to let Anderson get the submission just for the comeback story. Truly a class act
Yaaawwwnn
And it's 'trully'
CASUAL ALERT ⚠️ 📢
chael never even got an interim belt !!!!!!!!
I couldn't believe they let him lose the whole round, I thought he's supposed to lose only the round he tapped. Still undefeated and undisputed.

That stop for carlos was beyond premature, the dude junped right up when he called the fight off. Ufc fans today would riot.
Misha basically shitting all over Rhonda with this finnish over Holm was the best thing ever :D
Leon KOing Usman Will forever go down as the greatest comeback win in UFC history
Yair is so fuckin good
Got to say fantastic editing man, I've never seen such a convincing deepfake of Chael losing a fight, almost thought it was real for a moment
😂
It’s funny because Chael has “NEVER” lost a fight 😂
That last shot from the second clip was probably the lightest ground and pound ive ever seen but respect for the guy that he saw his opponent was clearly unconscious and that he controlled his power
I think that hand mightve been broken, look at how he holds it while standing
@@JacViramuerte Yeah it was so messed up I think I remember seeing a nasty x ray or photo of it years back right after this happened.
That could have been a Dan Henderson type power bomb. Big respect to him
Last shot he was out of power .
@@Rocco69Siffredi Yes but you don't need very much power to fall into someone and spike their head into the canvas
Leon’s head kick was absolutely generational. Still get chills watching that back after seeing his coaches telling him that he can still win it.
You gotta pull this shit out the FYE!

That Leon finish over usman was crazy. That was some of the best cornering over all time.
after watching that back, I think one of the under rated parts is being able to see the reaction from Usmans corner.
Yair’s finish of Zombie still stuns me to this day because Yair was 1 second away from losing that fight on the cards before he KO’d him with that upward elbow. It was crazy.
If it happened in a movie I wouldn’t believe it for a second
Greatest KO in UFC history given all the circumstances. Cannot beat it.

Tim Boetsch' clinch uppercuts on Okami are still my favorite clinch shots of all time. Just a crazy angle, so much torque in Tim's punch, that twist in his core just driving that fist harder and harder as it has a country mile of swinging arc to gain momentum.
'BAM. BAM. BAM.'
It's just really fucking cool. MMA is really cool.
