Who had the better finish at UFC 300?

[Poatan Power]

Max "Blessed" Holloway being up 4 rounds to 1 and letting it all hang out, risking the W for the legacy

Alex "Poatan" Peirera shooing away Herb Dean like a door to door salesman before dispatching Hill with a 1/3 of a second punch (330ms measured). Also worth noting he hit hill with his pinky and ring finger knuckles only lol

You know who I vote for, but in all sincerity I think Alex's knockout was more impressive from a technical standpoint whereas Max was the icing on a great performance cake and the epitome of BMF.

blessings to @KazDibiase for the gifs

My vote goes to Max. Final second of 5th round, putting a bad beating on him, going up in weight against the hardest hitters etc. I take all those into account

Both amazing.

Alex's one was epic too because of how he just waved off the ref and just made him drop like a sack of potatoes

 

[HHJ]

Max


that will be remembered for all time

 

[Fact Checker]

Poatan for sure.


Flawless hook that went through Hills guard and ice cold celebration. Plus it was an actual title fight.

 

[VAfan]

that max KO may go down as #1 all time. only time will tell, but i don't know how you beat that.

 

[L0ki]

Surprised at the results.

Max Justin I thought was a wild shootout where they were both landing and Max just landed better.

On the replay, they were both missing wildly, only one punch landed and it was the one that sealed the deal.

Great fight but Poatan demolishing Hill, who had a good claim as belt holder also, was crazy.

 

[Question]

Max because he was already up on the cards and deciding to risk it all, dude got a buzzer beater too.
That shit is insane.

However Pereira's KO is fucking sick too.

 

[Barteh]

Holloway's KO was way more hyped. Hard to top that.

 

[DatSamboKid]

Max. He moved up a weight class to take on one of the toughest fighters out there. A lot of people thought he didn't stand a chance and expected it to go down like Gaethje vs Ferguson. But in the last 10 seconds, he went all in and knocked Gaethje out cold.

 

[RockyLockridge]

Herb dean with the early stoppage on Hill, Should have let Hill be a warrior for a little while longer.

 

[Roop Holstry]

Without context and just the gifs alone I enjoy the Poatan KO more.

But the Max KO after that war in the last second of the fight absolutely blew my mind. KO of the year so far.

 

[ILove4MinutesHyuna]

TS have you ever heard of the concept the bigger picture? cause if you understood that you wouldnt waste time making this thread.

 

[ipowerslapmywife]

It was expected for Poatan to KO hill. It was shocking that Max knocked out Justin

 

[1s1k]

Max just because of what was realistically a dumb move. He had the fight won and if Justin would have caught him instead can you imagine the fight IQ guys heads blowing off.

Thats the difference between a fighter and an MMA athlete.

 

[AfroBanana]

Max due to the nature of BMF and the risk he took to get the result with literally 1 second on the clock.

Alex shrugged off a groin shot that barely did anything (as he said post fight) to maintain distance control. If it was in his best interest to appear hurt I’m sure he would have.

People think Alex ate a nut shot that hurt him and continued he didn’t (his own words). Still a badass finish, imo I thought this poll would be Jiri vs Max for badass finish. All three were awesome.

The Max KO is immortalized and unbelievably unique. The Alex KO is fairly typical Alex other than the “no let me fight” part.

[bj penn]

Max and it ain't even close. Probably one of, if not the best UFC knockouts of all time.

 

[PinkKangaroo]

Alex, the sequence of him stopping the ref & then KO's him seconds later, badass.

Guy looks like the terminator

 

[JKS]

Max

 

[AmonTobin]

Pereira was like:
“There. Now give me my bonus.”
