Who Currently Has the Best Kicking Game in the UFC?

Cerrone Edson machida and wonderboy come to mind. Yoel is way too good at his kicks for a guy who was a wrestler his whole life. He is so in control of his body that he just makes shit up as he goes along. Hasnt thrown too many of the crazy shit latley though as the competition gets harder.
 
LUKE ROCKHOLD and it's not even close.

Gotta agree here. And even though Aldo had a great low kick, in my mind, a guy who is really great with his legs has everything: low kick, middle kick, high kick, push kick, and a good lead leg too. I love Aldo but he is potential unfulfilled as far as his kicks.

Agree.

I think Cerrone does it all now. His kicks are spectacular.

Rockhold is easily the best kicker above 170 though.
 
They all have the best of everything really.

Edson Barboza - Speed kicks
Luke Rockhold - Body kicks
Alistair Overeem - Knees
Jose Aldo - Leg kicks
Donald Cerrone - Head kicks

Then Wonderboy - Spin kicks

Werdum - Liu Kang kicks.
 
Wonderboy being criminally under-represented here. It's hard to call anyone of the best, because each have some specific skills they are more highly proficient at.
 
My vote of course is for LUKE ROCKHOLD. There is no one like him in the MW division when it comes to kicks (and BJJ, counting Maia as a welterweight).
