Who are the best leg kickers all time?

[akproplayer]

I have Pedro Rizzo, Young Aldo, Thiago Alves & Edson Barboza.
Who am I missing?

Ben Henderson deserves a shout out for being the first calf kicker

Here's a dark horse for you, Jonathan Martinez beat both Adrian Yanes and Cub Swanson with leg kicks.

Was just about to say this amongst active fighters. He fucks dudes up with those inside leg kicks.

 

[Dimbis]

Cm Punk
Gaethje
Barboza
Some guy who used to fight a long time ago named Aldo

In that order

 

[Epsteins Guard]

Mirko Crocop. While it was his headkick that was most famous, it was his leg kicks and body kicks that set it up and made it so effective. Dude just caused major damage to whatever his legs kicks landed on.

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

Poatan is up there. Sneakiest calf kick in history, thrown with straight hips.

 

[PaulieVegas27]

Barboza and Aldo, and not necessarily in that order.

Yes, what he did to Yoshida's legs back in PRIDE...I'm surprised he ever walked the same again.

 

[TheBulge]

Probably James Irvin. Joe Rogan used to compliment his leg kicks often during fights saying "Nice leg kick by Irvin".

 

[Dr. Rose]

Ruas, Ruas, Ruas!

 

[Milenkovic]

Douglas Lima deserves a shout out too

Aldo’s destruction of Faber’s legs was dominant, I watched that fight at my neighbors house and he wanted Faber to win. Aldo stole his drunken dream that night.

Aldo vs Faber was the worst I've seen...Almost went nasty too.

Manhoef vs Lawler is a good one too, even if he lost, he was one kick away from taking Robbie's leg home with him.

I don’t know how Robbie weathered that storm and came back to win, that was ultimate badassery.

Manhoef power was insane, imagine if he had a better chin...

Robbie was getting brutally, and flawlessly destroyed - one hail Mary, and a few fights later he was UFC champ... Crazy.

[Streeter]

Pereria and Gaethje should be on any list there. Pereria has .maybe bestc seen

I was going to say Manhoef too, I don't care how experienced you are, you'd be wary fighting someone like this.

But Aldo and Barboza are obvious ones, ask Dan Hooker about Barboza's leg and body kicks, he smashed the Hangman.

Honorable mention to Fedor fucking up Jeff Monson’s leg and breaking his shin.
