greatest fight of all time?

[mirko>anyone]

Gaethje vs Palomino was a good one yea. Chandler vs Alvarez was great too.

Alvarez has equally, if not more, exciting fights with Kawajiri and Joachim Hansen from years ago in DREAM. This guy has some legendary fights.

 

[Sansnom]

Robbie vs Rory 2

So overrated.

 

[TerrorTimmy]

So overrated.

Absolutely one of the greatest fights of all time. Fuck off with your bullshit.

 

[90 50]

James Irvin VS Houston Alexander

The look on Rogans face when “Houston Alexander is for real” got swept away from his lips for eternity , was a classic.

On a serious note,
Scott Smith Vs Pete Sell.

Two friends forced to Bang and Bang they did.

Scott Smith’s crippling stomach shot Ko will ring for an eternity.

Leban has provided for the Just bleed gods, perhaps more than any other.

To pick just one of his fights would be hard to do

They are not biased to the UFC

 

[BigNasty]

All great ones. Though I feel
McGregor Mendes
McGregor Diaz 2
McGregor Aldo
McGregor Poirer
McGregor Holloway
Deserve to be mentioned aswell. Truly amazing fights.

McGregor Alvarez?

 

[Joe Myers]

Sakuraba / Newton
Fedor / Cro Cop
Shogun / Lil Nog 1

 

[Pingu]

for me it might be hendo / shogun 1. that fight had me jumping around the room.

I still can't believe that fifth round was not a 10-8. Should have been a draw but decision dan struck again.

 

[humdizzle]

still khabib vs McGregor for me.

war of ideologies. conor cheating to try and win with herb dean not doing anything. throwing dollies. east vs west.

 

[ChinaMMABlog]

Robbie vs Rory 2

this.

 

[kalabula]

All great ones. Though I feel
McGregor Mendes
McGregor Diaz 2
McGregor Aldo
McGregor Poirer
McGregor Holloway
Deserve to be mentioned aswell. Truly amazing fights.

Sarcasm, I assume? Conor has been in some great fights, in all honesty.

 

[NicholasJBasile]

Edgar vs Maynard 2 is the greatest, but Gathje vs Anyone is pretty great. I'd watch that guy fight a cold.

Bonus points for calling it "Edgar/Maynard 2". To this day, most people I come across thought that was their first fight.

 

[IDGETKTFO]

So overrated.

 

[cooks1]

Hughes Trigg 2 all day

 

[IDGETKTFO]

Motherfokers that fight was good first 4 rounds and a great 5fth
But nowhere near greatest fight stop it foking noobs
Shogun Hendo 1 yep now that’s a fight for the ages

 

[swarrrm]

Aldo vs Mendes 2

 

[Your Salad]

Hughes Trigg 2 all day

Came to say this. Never had a fight give me goosebumps like this one.

 

[VAfan]

I still can't believe that fifth round was not a 10-8. Should have been a draw but decision dan struck again.

i think it was because shogun was so gassed himself, all he could do was sit on top of him. if he had been more active in mount, it would have been a slam dunk 10-8 (or even 10-7).

 

[KBE6EKCTAH_CCP]

still khabib vs McGregor for me.

war of ideologies. conor cheating to try and win with herb dean not doing anything. throwing dollies. east vs west.

or man against man?
