Josh Emmett KO of Bryce Mitchell - Where do you rank it? (2023)

[Takes Two To Tango]

It's definitely up there for me. Could be the best KO of the year or #2.


The only one I'd rank higher is the Adesanya KO of Poatan.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

TTT

 

[glenn777]

I think the fact it's at featherweight makes it more impressive, that was a heavyweight punch

What other huge knockouts happened this year? Israel vs Alex?

Holy shit that was violent. The convulsions were kinda scary.

The JBGs are most pleased with that one. Hope Bryce is OK!

It was a perfect KO. The set up, the impact, the walkoff, mitchell's hands crossing and the brutal physical reaction.

 

[HatKick]

Nice fold-over, excellent sleep factor. I'd like to see a little more headbounce. Also a bit lacking in head spin and sweat flight, although the convulsions somewhat make up for that. Overall I give it an 8.

As far as importance goes, I would rate is the scale of Alex higher.

However, as far as one-shot impact goes, Emmett's KO is higher.

Izzy actually landed a three-punch combo, so it wasn't a single KO shot.

Emmett's punch was a one-shot, one-kill affair.

 

[Spath]

That was as good a overhand right as any. H-bomb level. Nasty knockout, Mitchell twitching on the ground

Bryce became one with the flat earth!

That's so true.

KO of the Year.. closest we've come to an Octagon death

The only one I'd rank higher is the Adesanya KO of Poatan.

For me it's the best ko bc of how brutal it is and how much I despise Bryce

 

[Edward Henry Greb]

That's so true.

Indeed.

What I meant to say was "Izzy's KO of Alex" (my voice-text didn't work right).

But but it took 2 to 3 shots from Izzy to get Alex down, whereas Emmett just flatlined Mitchell.

Cheers

So what is a 10? Any examples.

 

[Ryoto Machida]

#1 Easily.

Reminded me of Evans vs Liddell.

KO of the Year.. closest we've come to an Octagon death

Besides Masvidal/Askren

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

According to most of you guys it's best thus far.

Huge knockout but Mitchell's physical reaction was like he just laying down for a nap.
