The 10 greatest moments in MMA history that shocked the world and united fans across the globe

 

There are many epic moments in MMA that I wish I could re-live again. Some of these events may be sad for some people, but in general the events listed united mma fans as a whole, and they are one of the biggest moments in the sports history due to the hype and buzz at the time.

 

My personal top 5 and reasons why I like it

- UFC 229 - Conor vs Khabib - although I do like Conor and find his fighting style entertaining, he did take the trash talking too far and his antics such as throwing a metal dolly at a bus and calling Khabib's father a coward was way too much and was bad for the sports image. Seeing Khabib absolutely destroy him and choke him out was very satisfying, and hopefully it taught him to be humble

 

-Ronda Rousey getting knocked out by Holly Holm - Ronda was way too overhyped, arrogant and thought she was invincible. Glad she got her overrated ass kicked

 

-Conor vs Aldo - 13 seconds. The hype was insane, and the build up as well. Aldo really wanted to kill Mcgregor and rushed in like an idiot. Possibly the most embarrassing defeat in UFC history.

 

-Jon Jones vs DC 2 - Cormier was arrogant as hell and talked about how he is going to rip Jones head off. Full plays some gangster 2pac music for his entrance, puts on a mean face and then gets emasculated, destroyed with head kicks, brutal GNP then cries like a baby on national tv

 

-Amanda Nunes destroying cyborg in less than a minute was badass. She also whooped Ronda in 48 seconds. Truly the GOAT female fighter. If she spoke good english, was good looking and white the UFC would have made her a bigger star than Rousey.

Fedor KO's top 10 Brett Rogers..... and #2 HW in the world behind him, Arlovski, and top 5 Tim Sylvia in 36 seconds. Most Fedor wins.

 

GSP TKO's Serra for revenge.. most of GSP's fights as well I still love to watch over

 

Nick Diaz submits Takanori Gomi

 

Nunes and Holm KO'ing Ronda Rousey

 

Shogun KO's Lyoto Machida for revenge of the robbery earlier

 

Wanderlei Comeback vs Stann and Cung Lee

 

Dan Henderson KO's Bisping and lands flying elbow of death

 

Conor KO's Aldo

 

 

 

 

Frank Shamrock vs Phil Baroni - one of my favourite endings ever, with Shamrock telling Baroni and motioning "your going to sleep" and two seconds later Baroni is on the canvas and gets out to sleep immediately after lmao love it

I think one of if not my favorite moment was when Robbie Lawler won the WW title. All those years watching him , first as a prodigy, then as a journeyman, then as a has been, then disappear off the face of the earth and finally come back all those years later and win all the marbles against Hendricks who at the time was regarded as terrifying. The real MMA rocky story

1. Amanda Nunes VS Cyborg, Cyborg was an absolute machine, looked invincible for so long, that fight was the top of violence human race can produce with their fists.

 

2. Lyoto Machida VS Rashad Evans, Both undefeated, both hype trains, I loved the build up, and the fight itself. Also the first fight I saw of MMA.

 

3. Khabib Nurmagomedov VS Conor Mc Gregor, the building of this fight make me start to hate Conor, and every day the hate was increasing, so I felt great when he taps out.

 

4. Israel Adesanya VS Kevin Gastelum, What an epic fight, I hoped Adesanya to win, even if he is a little cringy, but though Gastelum was going to stop him, was a incredible fight.

 

5. Ben Askren VS Robbie Lawler, felt bad for this fight because I love the two of them, Askren is super entretaining, expecially out of the cage, I love to see his interviews and how he speak, I really want to see more.

Askren is a wet blanket. Might as well go take a nap when he's fighting:)
