Name a Move - and the Fighter that does it best

[Skarsgard]

GSP tapped to an armbar before he tapped to strikes, so he's even better at that -- you should give him credit for being the best at that too. Or did you just not know he tapped to Hughes in the first fight?

Beats me why he gets so much more trash talk for tapping to strikes than the armbar, given that any doctor will tell you that strikes are way more dangerous than armbars (that is why several national medical associations want to ban boxing and MMA, but none want to ban judo or BJJ -- arm bars simply aren't considered medically dangerous, head strikes are).

Honestly, it was a beautiful counter to GSP's kimura.

Eye Pokes: Jones, Ponzinibbio is a close second

Head butts: Justin Gaethje

 

[HHJ]

tbh i dislike when guys can do things great due to being built better for them than others

Just stand back up - Derrick Lewis
Get KTFO - James Vick

Vick or Rockhold? That is the question.

3 piece and a soda - Street Jesus

 

[spinup]

Vick or Rockhold? That is the question.

Yeah, tough one. I'll still give it to Vick, because he's really only good at that.

LOL you're killing my insides.

 

[Frode Falch]

Distance control - Amanda Nunes

 

[HHJ]

 

[Hassan Mouzine]

Demetrious Johnson: Supplex to arm bar

thi has got to be one of the most unique and excellent displays of technique and speed

not fast enought? never be on time to follow the sequence.
not technikal enough? from supplex to armbar straight has to be perfect, no room for technikal error

amazing

Title says it all.

Here are three examples from some of the GOATs:

1. The Jab - GSP

2. Hand Trap - Fedor

3. Spinning Back Elbow - Bones

Diving punch: Lyoto Machida

Crane Kick: Lyoto Machida

[HHJ]

Franklin hit a similar fake on Quarry. I'm surprised we don't see fakes like these more often.

Leaping kicks - Remy Bonjasky

 

[tekkenfan]

[Ether13]

Derrick Lewis — fuck BJJ

 

[Safton]

Demetrious Johnson: Supplex to arm bar

To this day one of the most impressive moves ever pulled off in the Octagon IMO.

Stunner - Stone Cold Steve Austin

 

[Liverkick-king56]

*All fighters in prime*

RDA/Barboza - Switchkick to the body

Mousasi/Masvidal - Jab (Arguable between a ton of fighters who has the best jab but their jabs are the most pleasing to the eye IMO)

JDS - Uppercut

Matt Brown - Everything Thai clinch

Renan Barao - TDD (TJ was deep and had him rocked and couldn't get him down)

Woodley - Overhand right

Lorenz Larkin - Teep/Pushkick (I can't think of anybody else who uses it more or casually floors people with push kicks in MMA)

Cejudo - Single leg takedowns (The trips and takedowns he hit MM with were a thing of art. DC is a close second but he uses more strength and less finesse than Cejudo.)



Thiago Silva - Post fight celebration (Throat slash is gangster)
