Josh Emmet's one was most devastating shot of this year. Makhachev's setup was though the best. He went from low mid to high in matter of minutes. He literally adjusted from Oliviera to Volk in 9 days. Champion for a reason.

those illegal hits to the back of the head? yeah, “crazy” Islam walks around 200lbs and Volk ended fight 1 on top beating him… most success from a fighter. this is why he shouldn’t of taken a last min fight, plus Islam needs 2 days to recover because he’s bigger than guys that fight at 170lbs let alone 155!!!

Even the unranked '55ers brought spectacular violence. Diego Ferreira with that monstrous overhand on Michael Johnson, Drakkar Klose with the first slam finish since I think 2020. BSD finishing all three of his fights this year. Elves Brener had a wild KO and a war with Guram. Matt Frevola, Bobby Green,Drew Dober. Lightweight was carnage top to bottom this year.

Islam and Adesanya's knock out of Volkanovski and Peireira, respectively, are coin toss for me. Imagine the pressure these two was carrying during fight night; Islam's desire to erase all the controversy in the first fight and having to face the same guy who had nothing to lose on days notice, while Adesanya was on the verge of losing to his arch rival for the 4th time. Both guys came through it and beat their rivals in spectacular fashion.

O’Malley stopping aljo moving backwards was serious elite stuff. Not a lot of people can pull that off. He went forward to backward and ambushed with pinpoint accuracy. Not a fan but he an excellent talent

@@AustinSauce3 In those cases I think I’d look at who ko’d them. Benoit St Denis (great young prospect), Edson Barboza (absolute legend), and Ismael Bonfim (good young prospect). The UFC has a reason to promote these guys. Now look at Josh Emmett. He’s never been a star and he’s 38 years old in a young man’s division…lost his last 2/3. He’s not going to be fighting for a title. Not much reason to promote him

I drove down from Toronto to Boston for the O'Malley fight. I've only experienced that type of atmosphere once before in my life and it was when Edwin Encarnacion hit the walkoff homer in the wildcard game. It will be a lifelong memory - thanks Boston crowd! What a great year, looking forward to some more great moments next year.
