Regardless of how successful they were, who displayed sambo techniques the best?

I always wondered if there was a UFC fighter who may not have succeeded in the UFC but at the very least, he show cased great sambo techniques.
 
SAMBO is merely a sport rule set, are you talking about Judo throws?
nice try trying to sound smart. you failed. Sambo is judo, wrestling, striking + more. As a matter of fact, Sambo moves more resemble Japanese Judo pre 2010 when it was allowed leg grabs and leg takedowns. Since 2010 Olympic Judo (under IJF) bans anything "LEGS".
 
How does your statement contradict mine?
your statement sounded like Sambo = Judo and vice versa. Judo has some usless BS throws. Sambo kinda eliminated those and applies more finish via submissions. I do judo and i am loving it. Sambo just added more stuff from different martial arts such as wrestling (sambo has double leg TD, suplexes, etc). Judo doesn't allow suplexes, hand, leg grabbing (Gi only).

Sambo grappling is like a combination of Wrestling (all 3 forms) and Judo so it's hard to say which techniques are specific to Sambo.
But for some beautiful and versatile slams obviously Khabib & Islam have some great ones as well as prime Karo Parysian
 
Thing of beauty for sure

Great call!
Forgot how late that stoppage was
To add to the brutality, I recall Khabilov being asked after the fight whether he knew Pichel was out (or that he landed on his head, I don't remember exactly), but his answer was "My job is to throw him, how he lands is his business".

Haha that's the best thing he could've said there

Is English your second language? Because it doesn’t really imply that
no, English is my native language and the only unfortunately. you weren't wrong. you were just not clear about your statement. that's all. Happy 4th if you are celebrating!
 
is it Islam on both gifs? the second is sleek Uchi Mata. I never saw it used in the cage. the first one looks like Sasae to me, but could be Ashi Barai also. Good stuff. thanks for posting
First is Islam vs Arman Tsarukyan, second is Islam vs Nick Lentz
