His performance against Lawler back at 47 was amazing for a BJJ black belt who was never really known for his hands. Literally shocked the world.

Fabricio Werdum

 

[Sonny Qc]

Werdum by far.
He fkcng owned Hunt with striking.

Matt Serra

Dan Henderson,
Before the birth of the H-Bomb
He was known on Sherdog as decision Dan...

Henery Cejudo.

I remember watching the Wilson Reis fight I couldn't believe the progress Cejudo made from fight to fight. Coming off a pair of back to back losses he came out and stood in the pocket throwing combos, and precise powerful varied strikes. Even his stance just seemed beter because he was suddenly comfortable on his feet.



2 years after getting TKOed by Mighty Mouse in the first, he stood in front of him for 25 minutes and won the striking in the championship rounds.

He went on to TKO Dillashaw, Moraes, and Cruz.

Not bad for a wrestler.

 

[HHJ]

Werdum by far.
He fkcng owned Hunt with striking.

Well He was getting outstruck for the most part but boy he came in clutch with that flying knee. He outsmarted Hunt with that one.

EPO situation aside, Dillashaw used to just be a straight up wrestler then all of a sudden he dominates Barao on the feet and becomes champion; I was completely shocked

 

[13Seconds]

TJ Dillashaw. His leveling up in striking came outta nowhere too. There's pre Barao version TJ and post Barao version TJ

 

[Necrocrawler]

Jose Aldo.
Rousey (yeah, we all mock her but still... her tko victories are still an achievement)
Werdum
