Media Top 30 UFC headkick KOs in history

[Dirty Frank]

Enjoy, shermanos!
(there's a fucking 5-minute ad after No. 26, though. Fucking ITP)

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Gonzaga / Crocop

/Thread

 

[MichiganMMA1978]

 

[rear naked ankle pick]

Not KO but my favorite is Condit vs GSP

 

[Get To Da Choppa]

Enjoy, shermanos!
(there's a fucking 5-minuted after No. 26, though. Fucking ITP)

This would've been on top of the list but Maycee Barber showed mercy. The kick caused a vacuum when it hit the air

 

[Johnnny]

Gonzaga / Crocop

 

[Crazy Librarian]

Hopefully Poatan will be added to the list after he land a headkick ko on Izzy in their next bout.

 

[jitzmonkey]

Always a fan of the 'walk off', or when they wait to see if their opponent is still viable or if the ref is gonna jump in "off."

 

[Fioretti]

Spider over Vitor > all

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Did I see this and forget it, or did they omit it?

 

[IndyCovaHart]

Petey vs. Coleman is the pioneer.

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Not KO but my favorite is Condit vs GSP

If we're counting not KO's, it's incredibly hard to outdo the amazement that was Showtime. Anyone but Bendo, and it would have been. That shit practically started its own life cycle

 

[NicholasJBasile]

Kinda tough to rank these sort of things due to subjective criteria... is it based on the significance of the fight and/or the moment? Is it based on the skill required? Is it based on how brutal it was?

For me, my short list (in no specific order) is probably Leon Edwards over Kamaru Usman, Pete Williams over Mark Coleman, Lando Vanata over John Makdessi, Shaun Jordan over Derrick Lewis, and Yves Edwards over Josh Thomson.

 

[LindyBrah]

How did they forget FKL vs Gregor Gillespie? Easily a top five all time headkick KO

 

[jm5000]

Cool vid, FKL's finish of Gillespie should def be on there though

[Post 2 Decision]

Barboza vs Etim #1

 

[Natural Order]

Vicious bodykick!

 

[mb23100]

Holm Rousey will always be #1. Even my mom asked me about it the next day lol.

 

[Natural Order]

Shame that Barboza/Etim wasn't #1. And where is Markham/Farber?
