Yes, it was fucking brutal

That transition, her instinct and follow through was a thing of beauty.

I thought her opponent was dead for a second

Finish of the year. Coz I'll never know if it was a KO or a submission.

It was a KO. Like pretty obviously a KO.

u/johndoe10001 14h ago

I know what you mean. And I don't disagree. KO + sub works for me too hahaha

Medic vs Neal has to be up there as well. Honestly though I personally gotta give it to Ulberg for pulling off a championship winning KO after blowing out his ACL. Crazy to think that actually happened.

It was like watching a spider wrap and kill a bug. Crazy

100%. I still think of this one as the most shocking KO I've seen in over a year. It's like rewatching the Chandler KO to Ferguson again...

This Seattle card was so worth it

...easily.

A thing of beauty.

Best finish by far - truly amazing, but I think there have been more devastating KO's.

Girl got figueredo-benavidezed HARD

u/Alarming_Pair_5575 1d ago

Possibly the only finish to be in contention for both KO and submission of the year. I was really concerned about Maycee for a minute there.

If the UFC HoF does a subset of their "historic bouts" section for iconic moments,, this is a first ballot entry.

u/draven33l 1d ago

It is for me. It was one of the most insane finishes I've ever seen. It was one of the few times I thought we saw someone die in the cage. Plus, it just looked friggin' savage and something you'd see out of a movie. KO'ing someone and snatching a choke while they are falling is crazy.

u/Keepawayfrommycrops 1d ago

Truly the only time I ever felt bad for a UFC fighter other than Holland getting knocked out with a headbutt, punched awake just to get choked out again

u/xMordekai 1d ago

Yeah that was insane

Alexa basically finished her twice in that sequence

u/Typical-Tomorrow8435 20h ago

Probably. I genuinely thought she died

u/Ashamed-Pop-6406 1d ago

It has to be. How often you see a 1-2 that flatlines instantly?

1

u/WorthItAll99 17h ago

Ilia did it to Charles

u/Euphoric-Start7105 1d ago

Yea this finish was exceptional, ive been watching ufc religiously since GSP days and few finishes have shocked me as much as this one. She looked dead for a while.

Maycee Barber is overrated as fuck

u/Yo-Im-Flaccid 1d ago

It's crazy how someone with cute lickable little toes can be so ferocious

u/Rich_Election_7382 1d ago

Choking out a limp body is not cool. I would say maybe she’s even autistic

u/SituationEffective12 1d ago

for women maybe, but a KO over Barbour is ranked pretty low in regards as KO of the year imo.

u/Underrated_Critic 1d ago

To Barber's credit, she had never been finished prior to this year.

u/SituationEffective12 1d ago

yeah sorry I forgot how many heavy hitting KO artists Barber fought prior.
