Can we stop with the greatest KO of all time stuff

[Gladiator24]

wut?

It was a lucky KO, and those types of kos don’t impress me. I prefer skilful kos like McGregor vs aldo, or masvidal vs askren.

or we can just go, that was a great ending to a good fight, lets not piss our undies about it though

constantly replying to your own thread does not add to the general consensus.

About every two years, the greatest KO of all time will occur and be announced.

If you let these things bother you, you are setting yourself up to be bothered for life.

Let it go bud.

What is an example of a KO you consider better?
Just curious

(But Max’s KO was amazing too)

I'm with the OP. Holloway was in control the vast majority of the fight, and was up on the cards. Same reason I've never thought all that much about DJ vs Borg.

Not even remotely comparable to something like Yair/KZ where Yair needed the finish to win.

This is actually a good topic to discuss because it really depends on how you look at it. We can also flip the narrative that Max' was more impressive because he did not need to do that and actually risked his potential win because he wanted to give Justin a chance.

Probably not the best but its definitely my favourite KO of all time.

- Max was considered a big underdog by most fans

He was like +130 the week of the fight, though he closed like +160. Not remotely a "big underdog".

Caring this much about people being hyped over a KO is embarassing
