Fighters who got hit hard by a strike and didn't get knocked out?

[StraightleftKO]

Here is mine. Cro Cop vs Hunt

Not many fighters can survive a high kick from Cro Cop and not get knocked out.

 

[Gabe]

DC vs. Rumble. Still can't believe that shit.

 

[Tamriel Terror]

DC Vs rumble

 

[KGmma]

Nate vs Conor

 

[Suzpect]

nate vs thompson for sure. That was like getting hit with a baseball bat plus all the punches and nate was still defending.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

I remember Roy Nelson got hit with a perfectly timed powerful uppercut from JDS that would have knocked anyone out and was the same shot that knocked Werdum out, and Roy ate it and staggered back. Amazing chin

[StraightleftKO]

Holy shit. Forgot about that one.

 

[Übermacht]

Bisping eating like 3 H-Bombs in the Hendo rematch.

 

[Magnum1978]

First that comes to mind for me is:

 

[ironball]

People forget what a bad motherfucker Cheick Kongo was in his prime

BONUS

 

[Fedorer13]

Here is mine. Cro Cop vs Hunt

Not many fighters can survive a high kick from Cro Cop and not get knocked out.

Yeah I see that landing on the ground jarred him awake. And he was almost able to stand up again. Very impressive.

 

[Hazuki Ryo]

Condit still not mentioned? His recovery in that last round against Lawler amazes me to this day

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Just the other day, we had several that could have easily ended a fight but didn't because Choi has some kind of chin on him.




Edit: Found another gif that helps.

[ChosenMMA]

Cormier weathering the storm after eating Rumble's bomb of a right hand that's wiped out the rest of the division, unbelievable powers of recovery.

 

[UPAZWITTS]

Lot of good ones here! You could basically look at any Big Country or Lineker fight and wonder how they never get knocked out too.

 

[Cazador]

Condit getting hit clean by Woodley and still managing to stay in the fight.

 

[Schoolboy Q]

This fight was pretty forgettable...but my god, how did Roy even stay standing after that Haymaker.

 

[Otto!]

Remember how Hendricks supposedly only needed one punch to end GSp? GSP took that punch and more, and never folded.
