Best Old Man Victories?

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

Talking about old veterans who defied expectations of being beaten easily by younger fighters. Some that immediately come to mind:

Jan Blachowicz TKO's Reyes.
Big Nog KO's Schaub
Bisping KO's Rockhold
Couture defeats Sylvia

What are some others?

Romero beating whittaker, costa and adesanya , all 3 in a row.

Best MW ever.

A couple of Glover fights are worth a mention. He straight up destroyed Smith. Could add to them if he beats Santos then Jan. Would be a helluva unexpected title run.

Henderson elbowing Lombard was pretty amazing.

Also Glover brutalizing Anthony Smith

This was the first thing that came to mind. No one expected an old Ortiz with his 98th neck surgery to take out a young and stout wrestler like Masterbader.

Sorry, read it as best beating old man victories LOL

I always thought Couture's win over Gonzaga was his more impressive late-career win. Better opponent and he got the finish.

People forget that Hendo KOing Bisping was also an old man victory.

 

[Dos-Catorce]

Diego over Gall.
Roxanne over whatsherface.
All of Aaron Pico's losses.
