Best Knee KO of all time?

[Natural Order]

Sandhagen on Frankie was a piece of art.

Wanted to post up Marquardt on Takase from Pancrase but can't find!

I'm certain you've seen this one before though

Oh, yeah, meant MMA specifically.

Wandpage 2

Up there with most brutal but in terms of sheer brutality its mvp koing cyborg. That was the most effective knee ever delivered in a fight.

Idk if masvidal/askren is better a knee. Its a better moment probably

 

[Keithlackney]

Silva vs Sonnen 2 for an honorable mention. That knee to the solar plexus to end the fight was pretty sweet

Also the one he landed on bonnar

 

[AmonTobin]

BJ Penn-Sean Sherk blasting him into the cage, and DJ-Moraes 2 100% avenging his loss were pretty sweet.

 

[DanAndroid]

MVP crushing cyborgs skull was devastating.

 

[Prince Nephilim]

Finally!!!!!

Cant find a gif but Jeremy Stephens fade away flying knee against Dennis Bermudez was a thing of beauty, especially after such a crazy war

 

[MDoza]

This deserves a mention

The blood pouring afterwards was insane

I watched this fight on shrooms and thought I witnessed the first death in the octagon.

Don’t see how masvidal over askren loses this, although there’s been so many epic flying knee kos

 

[IloveTHIS]

GIF or Aldo skillfully pulled out of back control from a badass little wrestler... and in the moment figured out how to absolutely starch him, effortlessly with that knee.

I know what the gif shows. It of course leaves out the cage grab prior to it

 

[MEAN357]

Ortega vs guida comes to mind
Aldo/ Mendes
Irvin/martin
Alves / karo

The set up for aldo vs Mendes really makes it one of the best ever for me. That transition was so fucking smooth, reminds me of Mighty Mouses mid-air arm bar in that sense.

 

[fightfan70]

aldos double flying knee on cub swanson was pretty bad ass

#3



Although #6 vs Kunioku could be even better
Also the flying knee that kicks off the Tekken combo KO vs Gouveia

 

[jitzmonkey]

Anderson Silva KOing Newton in Pride.

It should be mentioned (more) that Askren was out by 0:03 in; and the ref would’ve gotten to them quicker had he not literally been on his heels when the knee landed.

Page was great; but somehow didn’t put Cyborg out which is amazing in and of itself.

Great topic TS!

 

[anachronist]

of course

 

[Westbrick]

Aldo vs Swanson
Moraes vs Aljo

 

[CrocopHKtotheballs]

That must be Joachim Hansen vs Masakazu Imanari back in Pride 2005


Hansen was so closed to putting him a figure 4 lol
Do you have other suggestions?

 

[CrocopHKtotheballs]

My vote goes to Silva rearranging Rich’s nose
