Fighters who are in fights where its overwhelmingly finish or be finished

[NBKondit**]

Alistair Overeem and Melvin Manhoef are the best examples IMO

Overeem:

50 total fights
88% of the time it ends in a finish

94% of his wins have been by finish. The only ones which werent were against a Werdum who pulled guard most of the fight and Vitor who pulled guard most of the 2nd fight (Reem finished him in the 1st fight).

77% of his losses he gets finished in. There was a no contest with Cro Cop due to a knee to the groin, a decision loss to Lil Nog who finished him the 2nd time, and Yuriy Kochkine winning 2 split decisions over him.

Manhoef:

40 total fights
88% of the time it ends in a finish

93% of his wins are by finish, all by KO or TKO.

91% of his losses he gets finished in. He had one NC due to an accidental injury and 1 draw. The only controversial stoppage was against Misaki altho there was an early cut stoppage.

Matt Brown isn't too far away at 86%. 2 decision wins (how he didn't finish Thompson is beyond me) and 2 decision losses. 9 losses by submission, that's crazy.

 

[Joker Jiujitsu]

I think Pat Barry embodies this. Only one decision in his entire MMA career.

 

[MiniCraque]

Not UFC, but Scott Smith sits at 89%.

 

[OldBoy91]

Gonzaga. Only one fight (against Schaub) has ever gone the distance.

He said it best himself. "I either give the knockout or I recieve the knockout."

I think Pat Barry embodies this. Only one decision in his entire MMA career.

His schedule though is no where near Overeem's or Manhoef though.

I think Pat Barry embodies this. Only one decision in his entire MMA career.

He's fighting Soa Palelei next who has 100%. No decisions in his entire career.

Good one. Still cant believe there wasnt a finish in that Schaub fight.

He loses points for having one of the worst fights ever in his last outing:icon_evil

Because Thompson is a beast.

 

[aquamanpunch]

Alessio Sakara?

 

[Westbrick]

Gonzaga

 

[OldBoy91]

No longer in the UFC (sadly) but Brian Foster has never been to a decision in something like 25 fights. 19-6 iirc.

 

[KNM]

Rafael Cavalcante.

 

[Kratoswand]

Roy Nelson......Either KO guys with one punch or getting outclassed badly for 3 rounds.

 

[The Patient One]

Frank Mir is up there, he either gets finished or finishes people.

The decision loss to DC is the first decision he's had in a long time I think.

His fight with Overeem has to end in a finish, probably in round 1.

 

[OldBoy91]

Good one. Still cant believe there wasnt a finish in that Schaub fight.

Yeah. Ironically I think the quote I posted was taken from just before that fight.

 

[Steveston]

Brendan Schaub.

 

[Ninjarobby]

Joe lauzon

 

[Jimmy Tuna**]

Frank Mir
