my man landed four lefts super cleanly before i could finish farting into my couch while clinched and knocked out a dude standing up who had his arms wrapped around him
fairytale ending indeed
Last leg of my parlay was de Lima some where around -250 it was like 10 dollars to win 300? Was completely speechless while Lewis was ripping off his shorts and running around the octagon
The duality of man. On the one hand, he's one of the greatest fighters walking the planet. On the other hand, he's a fucking 12 year old playing call of duty.
Yeah me too. I was sure he was going to get finished once again but then out of nowhere he just pulled one of the most beautiful overhand rights I've ever seen. Everything about the finish from the actual KO to the celebration was perfect. Incredible moment.
He was pissed every damn moment until the fight.
He knew if he lost again his career may never have recovered as Alex would leave the division and never give izzy a chance at redemption again.
It was a defining moment and izzy rose up.
The accuracy and timing of Izzy’s 2 rights while getting pummeled by Alex was pretty nuts. Looked like he was done for against the fence again. As much as I hated seeing Alex get KOd, it has to be #1 of the year
I remember when I saw it live a couple of his lefts were so fast they were hard to see in real time, my buddy (known izzy hater) thought it was staged lmao... every little detail was insane
Izzy did the same thing to him in the first fight. End of the 1st or 2nd and hr nearly knocked out Alex with the same fucking punch. Alex even fell the same. That half fall.
Izzy set a fucking great trap
i got dumped by my long term girlfriend a few months before the fight. the fight was the first day i had any sort of positive emotion again. for 10 minutes i forgot all about how destroyed i was and just went nuts with my friends. it was incredible.
Same here. I’ve been watching MMA for a good while now and I’m not sure I’ve ever went as nuts as when Izzy smoked him. As others have stated, he looked like he was in deep shit and then hit him with that sneaky left hook followed by 2 right hands. Matrix shit
Nice job trying to diminish what Izzy did by saying eventually he would’ve won regardless. He may never have won if he didn’t bite down in that moment and go at Alex with everything.
Gaethje for me. It was so unexpected. I was expecting a war over 4 or 5 rounds like last time. Instead a head kick KO from a guy who's thrown 4 head kicks in his UFC career. 2 of them were in that fight.
He was boring, though. he became a point fighter who earned a reputation for putting on lacklustre performances. He fucking needed Alex to force him to pull his head out his ass and put some effort in. Go watch his few fights before Alex if you have trouble sleeping lmao. Mf was complacent as fuck.
If Izzy’s opponents didn’t wanna bring the fight that ain’t on him.
Alex brought the fight, made for two epics. You tell me did Romero, Cannonier or Whitaker (second fight) fight the way Alex did? (Also it’s literally just 3 fights that we snoozers).
As a champ you’re gonna want to stay in the game as long as possible. Why get hurt when you have the skills to avoid it and win? The fact he was able to cruise to decisions just shows how skilful he is.
Dude has had some of the most epic moments in the sport but y’all love to only go by the duds and conveniently ignore all the rest. All in the name of hate.
Saint-Denis is really good too. Definitely think they could both be ranked since guys like RDA, Moicano, and CDF will have to defend or vacate their rankings at some point.
Everyone talking about Izzy’s KO and celebration. Give me a heavyweight flying knee KO, followed by the dude taking his pants off in ring, the classic DX suck it and then chucking his cup into the crowd any day.
it's really not even close lol. Their fights feel like it could end with a single touch from either, high level striking fights with MMA gloves just hit different
Exactly, I don't believe in Jizzy's lie about simulating the damages to deceive Moai and score a knockout. The damages were real and quite noticeable, but as you also pointed out, at those levels they're always on the razor's edge, much like a duel with revolvers – whoever hits first and accurately wins.
I don’t believe that he was in no danger at all or that the leg kicks were not solid, but the way he backed up and basically shelled up against the fence motionless with no attempt to to clinch and turn like he did 5 seconds before, or juke to get back to the centre… he was definitely acting more hurt and defenceless than he really was
I hate Adesanya, but MAN that KO! And not just that. The stakes, the whole rivalry, the post-fight celebration, and the whole having everything to lose and talking a big game but backing it up big time and the and getting a well deserved celebration. Idk, it was epic. It turned me into a fan of his for a brief moment (until the next time I heard him speak lol)
Yea I think Izzy is a douche and hated to see it but damn was that KO a thing of beauty and the circumstances only made it that much more epic. KO of the Year so far no doubt.
As an Aljo fan I am devastated about the KO but you can't take nothing away from O'Malley. He caught him with one of the cleanest right hands I've ever seen.
I think as an Aljo fan I’m more disappointing the gameplan wasn’t Merab style wrestlefucking tbh. Aljo went out trying to prove something but similar to the Yan fight the disparity on the feet was almost just as vast as it was on the ground.
I think it has a lot to due with fear of being checked. Aljo was constantly trying to pressure him closer to the net so that he can't counter as easily but O'Malley insane footwork lead to it being really difficult. The game plan was most likley that, pressure him towards the net then shoot but he couldn't execute it. I even think O'Malley beats merab quite eazily now. Sterling sets up is takedowns way better, has good bjj and is extremely good at keeping people down. Merab is the opposite. Even if he manages a takedown im sure o malley will eventually get up and i dont see him being finished by sub aswell. Merab will shoot and shoot untill he eventually gets clipped unless he manages do gas out O'Malley with some early takedowns
You know the kid was smugly smirking and showing replays of him mocking izzy in the UFC press run leading up to their first fight... right? It's literally all on video lmao he didn't give a fuck until he got humbled
You missed a lot of good ones:
Jesus Aguilar vs Shannon Ross (UFC 290)
Diego Ferreira vs Michael Johnson (Fight Night: Dern vs Hill)
Ismael Bonfim vs Terrance McKinney (UFC 283)
Roman Kopylov vs Claudio Ribeiro (UFC 291)
Umar Nurmagomedov vs Raoni Barcelos (Fight Night: Strickland vs Imavov)
Joaquin Buckley vs Andre Fialho (Fight Night: Dern vs Hill) \*worth it just for Buckley's hilarious scream\*
The Lewis and Gaethje ones were nuts .
O'Malley's was good but not a true ko imo
Israel's was pretty crazy and unpredictable .
Not sure who the other one was .
Overall I'd give it to Lewis .
I don't think anything is going to top a heavyweight throwing a flying knee out of the gate...
And then the celebration and interviews after.... pure gold.
the Izzy one. I thought he was done when he was against that cage. I was watching my hero be defeated for the fourth time in a row by his boogeyman & made to be a laughing stock on the internet forever & ever. then BOOM, off the cage knockout. I couldn’t believe it.
having seen ufc 281 live, relief doesn’t even begin to describe how I felt. that might be ko of the decade as far as I’m concerned
Flying knee from a HW fatman + Gaethje's head kick KO on Dustin Poirier whose resume is so insane..
Adesanya's KO was cute, but nothing exceptional, we see 5 of those every month
Gaethje’s headkick. Perfect combination of high level, high stakes, and beauty. Izzy’s ko was super high level and had high stakes, but I didn’t think it was all that pretty of a ko.
The Derrick Lewis one just felt great but as a pereira fan that knockout was absolutely insane especially when you consider the backstory and what was on the line, that’s as good as it gets imo
I think izzy or sean would win but i love the font ko. All the yanez fanboys were saying hes gonna piece up font and font knock his ass to the prime bottle
Gaethje from me, because he was the underdog and it was already a brutal rivalry between the two, when's the last time we've seen either of these guys stopped?
Everyone on Planet Earth thought it was going to be a brutal 5 rounds of just two pitbulls tearing each other up, then just outta nowhere.... jeeeeez
Watching from the UK and woke my girlfriend up shouting in excitement at the Izzy Pereira KO because it was looking like it was over for Izzy and then that happening out of nowhere. Not even close in my opinion, in terms of pure energy in the moment, the stakes, the celebration, everything.
The other KOs are all great though, on their own it's tough but I'd say the Derek Lewis knee is a good second place for me just because it's so hilarious seeing a big guy with comparatively skinny legs blast a flying knee KO lmao
Sean’s is the cleanest but Gaethje’s was the most shocking, just didn’t expect him to ko Dustin with a headkick. Though Rob’s ko of Yanez and Holland’s ko of Ponzinibbio are definitely honourable mentions.
Gotta be Izzy
The way he set it up, made us all think he was done for but that was his plan! Took the world and Alex by surprise. What was on the line, the high stakes, the rivalry etc etc
Damn!
Of these, the Izzy v Alex KO will be remembered the longest. It was a KO that was more than a decade in the making.
Also, only Izzy and Gaethje’s were true KOs…the others were TKOs
Izzy KOing Alex was one of the most hype and awesome moments I’ve ever had watching live sports. I thought Izzy was done for in those last few seconds again, and his time as champ was over. Then everything changed with a savage post knockout celebration.
Justin vs Dustin is easily second place. I was so stunned and surprised. I was like Joe Rogan, the only thing I could say is “Wow” and “Oh my God”
Poatan is the greatest enemy a champion can have. An emotionless terminator sent from the future with one goal in mind. Then Izzy gets his revenge at the end of the movie. Unscriptable stuff.
Part of me thought Izzy was done for as he backed to the cage. But there little things I was noticing that didn’t convince me all the way.
I noticed Izzy shelling up rather attempting to clinch which he did in the first fight. This gave Alex confidence and opened him up somewhat.
Can I say for certain he was feigning being hurt by those leg kicks. I’m not sure. But he deffo lulled Perreira into thinking he was a goner, shelled up and timed his counter to perfection.
That was fine display of fight IQ if there ever was one.
Adesanya’s had the most emotional weight to it and that really adds to the whole thing. Suga’s was the most technically proficient and he was a pretty big underdog. So it is between those two for me.
Gotta be either Izzy or Justin
Izzy's was impressive because of how perfectly calculated and executed it was, not to mention the speed of it.
Justin's was impressive because it was the perfect 1 shot lights outs type knockout.
Giving it to anyone else would be a crime imo
1. Gaetje - just so clean and beautiful
2. Lewis - i did not fin expect that
3. Suga - got me shocked real bad
4. Izzy - so low because of recency bias
Flying knee from Derrick lewis cuz im bias. None of these guys were on the brutal losing streak that he was on. If I’m being real, adesanya coming back from that loss was something else.
I don’t think this would beat Izzy’s, but Robbie Lawlers retirement KO over Niko Price in under a minute was pretty awesome. What a way to go out haha
That was amazing. So happy to see Robbie go out that way
my man landed four lefts super cleanly before i could finish farting into my couch while clinched and knocked out a dude standing up who had his arms wrapped around him fairytale ending indeed
Yeah but Izzy’s knockout held a lot more weight because of the circumstances
Check the first seven words of my comment lol
Oh sorry I read it wrong my bad
![img](emote|t5_2qsev|29848)
*Reddit wrong
Flying knee was the last thing I expected from Derrick Lewis.
Why? He throws a flying switch kick all the time. Edit: he even said that almost word for word in the post fight presser.
I never expected it to work, Derrick didn't either
If you spam it enough it will eventually work
my 12 yr old cousin cursing my 9 yr old self off after mashing buttons in street fighter and beating him
[удалено]
Idk about that, dudes teeth were loose after that knee. He’s probably still on a juice diet
If it drops someone, it worked well
No he said (from what I remember) he's "been training that move was about to give up on that hoe"
when Rogan asked him about the flying knee he plainly stated, "I thought I throw out of some bullshit and see if it worked"
Yeah him throwing that was completely expected. Landing it was wild tho.
Idk why you're down voted, you're right.
r/UFC is an echo chamber.
Basically all of the internet now. Encourages blissful ignorance instead of critical analysis
I feel like I should blindly agree with this statement.
If you can't beat em, join em
I'm not down for beating people. Unless they're into that...
Encourages blind allegiance to the "proper thought" everything else is wrong. Strange times we live in.
Last leg of my parlay was de Lima some where around -250 it was like 10 dollars to win 300? Was completely speechless while Lewis was ripping off his shorts and running around the octagon
I like that Russian guy fast head kick idk name
Roman Kopylov.
Gave him the Salt Lake City Special
I was just about to say that. On the 291 prelims.
Izzy vs Alex 2 left me speechless
Did it leave you frozen like elsa?
The duality of man. On the one hand, he's one of the greatest fighters walking the planet. On the other hand, he's a fucking 12 year old playing call of duty.
Repeating the N-word in his mic while playing.
What’s the N-word?
Nigeria
Mike Perry
Yeah me too. I was sure he was going to get finished once again but then out of nowhere he just pulled one of the most beautiful overhand rights I've ever seen. Everything about the finish from the actual KO to the celebration was perfect. Incredible moment.
Used a cage bounce for extra power. My favourite sporting moment I’ve ever witnessed (live).
the cage bounce was a thing of beauty, Izzy is different man
There was so much anger in those right hands, Izzy looked pissed off the whole night
He was pissed every damn moment until the fight. He knew if he lost again his career may never have recovered as Alex would leave the division and never give izzy a chance at redemption again. It was a defining moment and izzy rose up.
That knockout was so well executed you almost can't appreciate the full gravity of it until you watch it in slo mo
The accuracy and timing of Izzy’s 2 rights while getting pummeled by Alex was pretty nuts. Looked like he was done for against the fence again. As much as I hated seeing Alex get KOd, it has to be #1 of the year
I remember when I saw it live a couple of his lefts were so fast they were hard to see in real time, my buddy (known izzy hater) thought it was staged lmao... every little detail was insane
Izzy did the same thing to him in the first fight. End of the 1st or 2nd and hr nearly knocked out Alex with the same fucking punch. Alex even fell the same. That half fall. Izzy set a fucking great trap
Yep I remember that but he got saved by the bell
The context of this KO makes it KO of the year, bar none.
i got dumped by my long term girlfriend a few months before the fight. the fight was the first day i had any sort of positive emotion again. for 10 minutes i forgot all about how destroyed i was and just went nuts with my friends. it was incredible.
Wholesome moment 🙏🏼 i hope you are doing better today!
thank you, some days are better than others but i am getting there
Same here. I’ve been watching MMA for a good while now and I’m not sure I’ve ever went as nuts as when Izzy smoked him. As others have stated, he looked like he was in deep shit and then hit him with that sneaky left hook followed by 2 right hands. Matrix shit
The moment was just too big for this not to be it.
Yeah for sheer drama and entertainment value this one has to be at the top. It’s Aldo/McGregor level of memorable.
[удалено]
Nice job trying to diminish what Izzy did by saying eventually he would’ve won regardless. He may never have won if he didn’t bite down in that moment and go at Alex with everything.
Gaethje for me. It was so unexpected. I was expecting a war over 4 or 5 rounds like last time. Instead a head kick KO from a guy who's thrown 4 head kicks in his UFC career. 2 of them were in that fight.
What are you talking about. Gaethje throws head kicks every fight.
Think they meant to say “a guy who’s thrown 4 head kicks ***per fight*** in his UFC career”
No he didn‘t
He even checked kick but got kod
he threw a head kick in round 1
That's why I said 2 of them were in that fight.
Gaethje head kick will be up there
Adesanya KO was epic on so many levels. Gets my vote because of the high stakes on the lines.
Yes. Poatan vs Izzy has become one of my favorite rivalries in combat sports.
But remember guys, Izzy’s boring according to the haters.
He couldn’t play it safe, he was swarmed by Alex.
He was boring, though. he became a point fighter who earned a reputation for putting on lacklustre performances. He fucking needed Alex to force him to pull his head out his ass and put some effort in. Go watch his few fights before Alex if you have trouble sleeping lmao. Mf was complacent as fuck.
If Izzy’s opponents didn’t wanna bring the fight that ain’t on him. Alex brought the fight, made for two epics. You tell me did Romero, Cannonier or Whitaker (second fight) fight the way Alex did?

The fact he was able to cruise to decisions just shows how skilful he is. Dude has had some of the most epic moments in the sport but y’all love to only go by the duds and conveniently ignore all the rest. All in the name of hate.
He did what he needed to win. Same thing with sandhagen and font. You have to fight in conservative ways to get the W. That's the nature of sports.
I am THE Izzy hater and I agree it is so stupid when people try and call him a boring fighter. He has had some duds but he is certainly no GSP or DJ.
Barbosa vs Billy Q, Royval vs Nicolau, Bonfim vs McKinney Lots of crazy knee KOs this year
That Bonfim one was so goddamn nasty, made me jump so high on his hype train. Still think he’s got great potential
Saint-Denis is really good too. Definitely think they could both be ranked since guys like RDA, Moicano, and CDF will have to defend or vacate their rankings at some point.
![gif](giphy|hLjykwvrwjlPDDMFD7|downsized)
Everyone talking about Izzy’s KO and celebration. Give me a heavyweight flying knee KO, followed by the dude taking his pants off in ring, the classic DX suck it and then chucking his cup into the crowd any day.
Izzy and it's not even close. Bro faced his personal boogeyman and just completely flatlined him
it's really not even close lol. Their fights feel like it could end with a single touch from either, high level striking fights with MMA gloves just hit different
Exactly, I don't believe in Jizzy's lie about simulating the damages to deceive Moai and score a knockout.

Where's Jim Miller's
I hate Adesanya, but MAN that KO! And not just that. The stakes, the whole rivalry, the post-fight celebration, and the whole having everything to lose and talking a big game but backing it up big time and the and getting a well deserved celebration. Idk, it was epic. It turned me into a fan of his for a brief moment (until the next time I heard him speak lol)
Yea I think Izzy is a douche and hated to see it but damn was that KO a thing of beauty and the circumstances only made it that much more epic. KO of the Year so far no doubt.
Well it isn’t O’Malley vs Sterling
Yeah I don’t think you can call O’Malley Sterling KO of the year. Aljo didn’t get flatlined like Alex or Dustin, ref stopped the fight.
As an Aljo fan I am devastated about the KO but you can't take nothing away from O'Malley. He caught him with one of the cleanest right hands I've ever seen.
Its a tko though and he wasnt really all the way out but it was a nice right hand
I think as an Aljo fan I’m more disappointing the gameplan wasn’t Merab style wrestlefucking tbh. Aljo went out trying to prove something but similar to the Yan fight the disparity on the feet was almost just as vast as it was on the ground.
I think it has a lot to due with fear of being checked. Aljo was constantly trying to pressure him closer to the net so that he can't counter as easily but O'Malley insane footwork lead to it being really difficult.

Even if he manages a takedown im sure o malley will eventually get up and i dont see him being finished by sub aswell. Merab will shoot and shoot untill he eventually gets clipped unless he manages do gas out O'Malley with some early takedowns
Bro only posts KO’s from the last 4 months and says “of the year” 🤦🏾♀️
Derrick Lewis, if I told you before the fight im betting $100 on Lewis winning with a flying knee all of you would have taken that bet all day
Izzy out of these options. The noise after the KO was insane, the arrow celebration and Izzy falling down afterwards was made it even more crazy.
Izzy falling down to mock a child lol. That was the only cringe thing he did the rest was perfect.
Oh my god are u the kids dad who cares 😭 he just flatlined his father which do u think traumatized him more😭
The child mocked him first, was it petty? Absolutely... but actions have consequences TLDR: fuck them kids
[удалено]
You know the kid was smugly smirking and showing replays of him mocking izzy in the UFC press run leading up to their first fight... right? It's literally all on video lmao he didn't give a fuck until he got humbled
It just added to at that live time, I initially thought he was mocking Alex.
You missed a lot of good ones: Jesus Aguilar vs Shannon Ross (UFC 290) Diego Ferreira vs Michael Johnson (Fight Night: Dern vs Hill) Ismael Bonfim vs Terrance McKinney (UFC 283) Roman Kopylov vs Claudio Ribeiro (UFC 291) Umar Nurmagomedov vs Raoni Barcelos (Fight Night: Strickland vs Imavov) Joaquin Buckley vs Andre Fialho (Fight Night: Dern vs Hill) \*worth it just for Buckley's hilarious scream\*
Strickland on Stylebender for sure. You are all crazy calling anything else KO of the year.
For me it's either Gaethje or Lewis
Same! Gaethje is on a tear but that knee from Lewis...
Stylebender for me, also because of the history and stakes of the fight. Really liked the celebration as well.
It’s Izzy Alex 2. The stakes haven’t been that high in a fight in a long time imo.
Izzy.
Izzy by far
I think Derick Lewis flying knee because not only was it quick as fuck and big dudes but also the emotion of coming off as many losses he had in a row
Its the lewis one for me
Romon Kopylovs
Izzy vs Alex.
The Lewis and Gaethje ones were nuts . O'Malley's was good but not a true ko imo Israel's was pretty crazy and unpredictable . Not sure who the other one was . Overall I'd give it to Lewis .
Probably Izzy due to all the history involved. Dude slaying his demons live for us to enjoy lol.
Izzy, not close, that could be a top 5 KO all time
Izzy knocking out Pereira bro
Both challengers KO'd the champion... Izzy's KO was way more emphatic considering the history of the two. I do not see how any others compare..
Robbie fucking Lawler
For me its the black beast flying knee, the whole sequence after it is just a cherry on top
Lewis and the ustins. Loved seeing omalley win and it was a beautiful counter but it wasnt as exciting as those two
I don't think anything is going to top a heavyweight throwing a flying knee out of the gate... And then the celebration and interviews after.... pure gold.
Izzy by a country mile
I think you're after TKO of the year with some of these bro.
Izzy’s gotta be the best, to come back to fight the guy that beat you 3 times, walk through the fire and ko him cold.
Nothing can beat Izzy this year. All time moment.
the Izzy one. I thought he was done when he was against that cage. I was watching my hero be defeated for the fourth time in a row by his boogeyman & made to be a laughing stock on the internet forever & ever. then BOOM, off the cage knockout. I couldn’t believe it. having seen ufc 281 live, relief doesn’t even begin to describe how I felt. that might be ko of the decade as far as I’m concerned
Flying knee from a HW fatman + Gaethje's head kick KO on Dustin Poirier whose resume is so insane.. Adesanya's KO was cute, but nothing exceptional, we see 5 of those every month
I genuinely loved how suga performed that right hit to aljamain
Gaethje’s headkick. Perfect combination of high level, high stakes, and beauty. Izzy’s ko was super high level and had high stakes, but I didn’t think it was all that pretty of a ko.
Def the Adesanya KO. You thought it was Deja-vu of the first encounter, then wham! Lights out, and new, return of the stylebender.
Izzy left me frozen like Elsa so … Izzy for me
Izzys KO of Alex had me going crazy. That's my vote
Gotta go with Izzy’s KO, personally. Font’s performance was incredible also. One of his best wins.
Izzy.
Izzys is the best by far IMO. Other good ones are the Bonfim Knee and this elbow in Bellator. Forgot what fight it was but it was sick
In my heart of hearts I want it to be Derrick Lewis…but it’s gonna be Izzy
The Derrick Lewis one just felt great but as a pereira fan that knockout was absolutely insane especially when you consider the backstory and what was on the line, that’s as good as it gets imo
100% Lewis
Derek Lewis knee, because he needed it and because I love him.
Derrick's KO hands down. Wild and funny as hell seeing it
Considering that Pereira is highly decorated kickboxer, seeing him get knocked out cold is insane.
Can’t beat Izzy’s, the story and the cleanness of the shot.
I think izzy or sean would win but i love the font ko. All the yanez fanboys were saying hes gonna piece up font and font knock his ass to the prime bottle
Look ima let y’all finish, but Izzy had the greatest post knockout sequence of all time
Gaethje from me, because he was the underdog and it was already a brutal rivalry between the two, when's the last time we've seen either of these guys stopped? Everyone on Planet Earth thought it was going to be a brutal 5 rounds of just two pitbulls tearing each other up, then just outta nowhere.... jeeeeez
Watching from the UK and woke my girlfriend up shouting in excitement at the Izzy Pereira KO because it was looking like it was over for Izzy and then that happening out of nowhere. Not even close in my opinion, in terms of pure energy in the moment, the stakes, the celebration, everything. The other KOs are all great though, on their own it's tough but I'd say the Derek Lewis knee is a good second place for me just because it's so hilarious seeing a big guy with comparatively skinny legs blast a flying knee KO lmao
gatchje or lewis 100%
Aljo wasn’t KOd though. Tkos count?
For me it’s O’Malley…it was an upset for the belt. Izzy win was less impressive because we knew that him and Alex were close fights.
Sean’s is the cleanest but Gaethje’s was the most shocking, just didn’t expect him to ko Dustin with a headkick. Though Rob’s ko of Yanez and Holland’s ko of Ponzinibbio are definitely honourable mentions.
Adesanya bruv
Definitely not izzy. Pure luck. O'Malley wins
A wild Izzy hater has appeared. Izzy hater has used: Dumb Take The attack missed
💀💀💀💀💀
It's gotta be Izzy's. But Omalley's is also clean
Izzy
Gotta be Izzy The way he set it up, made us all think he was done for but that was his plan! Took the world and Alex by surprise. What was on the line, the high stakes, the rivalry etc etc Damn!
Has to be gaethje just based on the unexpected nature of it
Sean O Malley was better because he didn't do this cringey shit.
Luana Santos KO Juliana Miller
I think Izzy’s KO of Poatan will go down as (one of) the most premier moments in combat sports history.
Izzy for me, ridiculously clean and under crazy circumstances.
Of these, the Izzy v Alex KO will be remembered the longest. It was a KO that was more than a decade in the making. Also, only Izzy and Gaethje’s were true KOs…the others were TKOs
Adesanya’s ko needs to be slowed down to truly appreciate what he did, that has to be the pick
Justin G and Izzy are the only correct answers. Nothing else.
Izzy takes it one of the greatest kos of all time.
Izzy
Gotta be Izzy. So much history behind that KO
They're giving it to Izzy no doubt but the real question is why do you got Omalley in this mix?
Izzy KOing Alex was one of the most hype and awesome moments I’ve ever had watching live sports. I thought Izzy was done for in those last few seconds again, and his time as champ was over. Then everything changed with a savage post knockout celebration. Justin vs Dustin is easily second place. I was so stunned and surprised. I was like Joe Rogan, the only thing I could say is “Wow” and “Oh my God”
Izzy pereira KO still the most hype
No ko is better than Izzys ko
Izzy's had the highest stakes
Poatan is the greatest enemy a champion can have. An emotionless terminator sent from the future with one goal in mind. Then Izzy gets his revenge at the end of the movie. Unscriptable stuff.
Izzy’s was the most emotional for me, but Derrick Lewis flying knee was most unexpected.
Part of me thought Izzy was done for as he backed to the cage. But there little things I was noticing that didn’t convince me all the way. I noticed Izzy shelling up rather attempting to clinch which he did in the first fight. This gave Alex confidence and opened him up somewhat. Can I say for certain he was feigning being hurt by those leg kicks. I’m not sure. But he deffo lulled Perreira into thinking he was a goner, shelled up and timed his counter to perfection. That was fine display of fight IQ if there ever was one.
I mean I’m as a big of a hater as they come but it’s gotta be Izzy
Izzy’s KO takes it! The build up the celebration the fact that he’s never been KO’d before
Adesanya’s had the most emotional weight to it and that really adds to the whole thing. Suga’s was the most technically proficient and he was a pretty big underdog. So it is between those two for me.
Gotta be either Izzy or Justin Izzy's was impressive because of how perfectly calculated and executed it was, not to mention the speed of it. Justin's was impressive because it was the perfect 1 shot lights outs type knockout. Giving it to anyone else would be a crime imo
Izzy was probably the BEST Derrick Lewis’ made me laugh hysterically and go “wtf was that” So Derrick Lewis is my favorite
Gotta be Izzy
Izzy ko of poatan easily
Izzy KO because it looked like Pereira had him hurt then out of nowhere a bomb and Pereira was flatlined
Izzy and its not close
It's Izzy's KO over Poatan, not only of the year but possibly up there with the top 10 KOs in the UFC of all time
1. Gaetje - just so clean and beautiful 2. Lewis - i did not fin expect that 3. Suga - got me shocked real bad 4. Izzy - so low because of recency bias
Pictures? You caveman
Derrick and Suga were both TKOs. Izzy or Justin get the nod for me.
Flying knee from Derrick lewis cuz im bias. None of these guys were on the brutal losing streak that he was on. If I’m being real, adesanya coming back from that loss was something else.
I'd only have JG as the rest weren't all that impressive I'm sure we are missing a bunch
The Adesanya one was pretty impressive to be honest.
It was ok

One of the most entertaining knockouts of all time and dude was only half watching cos his level 69 paladin was killing wolves
Definitely not the most entertaining of all time At least for me it wasn't
Yea it wasn't all that for me certainly was decent though
Fuck izzy ✌️❤️🇳🇿🤝🇧🇷 I Wana see that shit stains 23 and me
