Media Alex Caceres KO Julian Erosa GIFS

[Prince Nephilim]

Reminds me of a knockout Vinnie Magelhaes (sp?) got in M-1.

Reminds me of Carlos Condit’s sneaky head kick

Someone posted Carlos' kick to GSP on page 1 of this thread. It's a thing of beauty!

 

[Number 8]

Nasty kick Erosa could barely stand

Early stoppage

 

[Ghostoftheville]

Why are they so eager to force guys to stand up and walk when they're clearly not ready.

He refused to stay down. Herb kept trying to get him to stay down, but I think his corner let themselves get talked into it

I started following the UFC because of TUF 12 GSP vs Koscheck. Alex Caceres will always have a special place in my heart.

WOOOOO FUG YEAHH!!!

 

[Th3Sav4ge]

Sick combo. You'd have to have elite level reflexes to dodge that

he didnt pull the trigger after alex whiffed the over hand. could have thrown a straight, or over hand. alex must have read he was gonna pull out/slip. threw a punch hard enough the opponent has to defend or react. then anticipated the reaction

 

[Fioretti]

I almost thought early stoppage until he tried to get up.

 

[tkotom]

Herb Dean content to let the guy die lol

 

[TheNinja]

Thanks @KazDibiase !! You the man.

Slick kick by Alex!!

 

[FlyingDeathKick]

I remember (like so many other fighters) he said he was going to retire when he hit 30. Glad he didn't because his 30s have been his best years so far.

So they can get to the mic for their why-did-you-lose-do-you-even-know-you-lost interview.

Shades of Condit's almost fight ending kick against GSP.

NBK and GSP for life!

I'd say Condit's kick is easier, after looking at Caceras's stance and body movement.
Condit's upper body and leg are aligned, so to speak, while Caceras's body was already pointing to his right (from inertion of the punch), and the torso had to be twisted way more than Condit (I'd argue there is no twist in Condit's case).
This is far harder to do, imho, than what Condit did.

Over a year ago, I had an argument on this forum with somebody that was claiming that Bruce Leeroy wasn't "UFC caliber"... can you believe that?

 

[Brother Numsi]

Slick shit brotha

No, different combo, more like Leon one on Usman.

 

[DebtCollectorMMA]

What an awkward kick, couldnt have seen that shit coming

 

[Talibankocken]

It’d be sick to see him really get in a groove after 10 years, like Olivera did.

Oliveira was weird as shit to someone like me who had a 7-8 year hiatus from following MMA lol. When I first heard his name in title talks it was a real "Wait a minute... The Do Bronx guy? Really? Dafuq?" moment.

Rediscovering Ryan Bader after the same time period was equally, if not even more (due to higher age), weird haha. Two guys who never really were shit but always crumbled badly against top competition.

Nope. Flat on his back eating unanswered shots and his arm was limp when he tried to flip over and get up after the stoppage. He was done.
