Worst damage from leg kicks ever? Worse than Faber/Aldo

[SnowInformer]

Damn! He gave Nate a nice thigh tattoo with those kicks

 

[Taric]

Remember when legs kicks were considered weak and everyone criticized Aldo for doing no damage to Faber, until the pics of his leg were put out?

Jesus, cowboy was throwing all his weight/momentum into each of those kicks lol

Miles Jury came into that fight 15-0 and talking smack about Cerrone. He left that fight 15-1 and moved down to FW to fight Charles Oliveira 12 months later. He lost that one (13 months ago) by guillotine choke in the 1st and hasn't fought since.

Moral. Those were some brutal fuck you kicks. lol

Antoni Hardonk had some nice leg kicks. I remember him getting the finish on a card many years ago. I can't find a video but hopefully it is on this highlights video.



Edit: There are some good leg kicks on that highlight... but the editing on it is just ridiculous.

It all makes sense than. Watching those kicks after knowing this makes it even more enjoyable

I know it is Kickboxing/K1 but the low kick god must be Ernesto Hoost. Never seen kicks so sharp by anyone else than Hoost.

Find it fair to mention this legend.

Dat UFC LHW division could use Thiago Silva right now

Dat USADA wouldn't let that become a reality

cowboy is one of the guys that gets praised for his kicks but his kicks suck.

ask anyone who know ssomething about striking and they will tell you that his technique is bad. he throws them alot and has decent/good timing, but his kicks are not good.

Ouch! he won't be walking for weeks. I also thought Thaigo Silva was a very good fighter, its a shame that he had so many problems and issues outside of the octagon, thats why they cut him. He was a bad-ass striker and could beat a lot of the top 10 LHW's in UFC imo, not Jones and Cormier and the like, but many of the others he can. He seems like a very intense guy.

This. He was one of my favorites when he was still in the UFC. The whole situation outside the octagon was so strange. Especially with the UFC conducting it's own investigation, clearing him, signing him again and then cut him before he could fight again. That probably messed with Thiago a lot. No fights in 2014, 2 brutal losses in 2015, so it's nice to see him on a 3 fight winstreak now. (Albeit not against very impressive opponents.) I don't think we'll ever see him in the UFC again, and he's already 34.

Still one of the most intimidating fighters in MMA in general imo. He just has that look that he's having so much fun hurting you.

His kicks are terrible roflmfao!!!
Yeah they're just awful, terrible technique!
Have you seen his awful kickboxing record?
Cowboy couldn't kick his way out of a paper bag.
Anyone who knows anything about it will tell you!

 

[Buff]

I know theyre oblique kicks.
Poor old Miguel Torres for me.

Although Rampage probably thinks it was him.

 

[MuyThaiElbows]

Shogun vs Rampage.

Yeah son.

 

[NaughtyBoy]

Rizzo on Randy... He barely could stand on his feet at the final round. He personally said that after that he couldn't walk for a month I believe. The bizarre thing was that he won the fight... He doesn't even believe that as well.

Cro cop fractured Yoshidas femur but marcos ruas was the first one I remember who really owned the tactic.

his kickboxing record means NOTHING

he is a bad kicker. he has never competed at a high level in kickboxing or muay thai. americans and their kickboxing.....come on man, you are being silly right now.

 

[Concrete Whale]

If you can't check kicks don't step into the octagon.

There's no excuse for it.

 

[HaikenEdge]

Didn't Edson Barboza finish 3 people with leg kicks?

 

[Andre Xiong]

Thiago Silva went 25 minutes? and got a W. Rather much he be in UFC than many many other names and performers.
