What are the most high-level MMA striking matches you've ever seen?

god I'm sick of this opinion. The third was even at best (I gave it to Edgar) and the remaining 2 were Edgar's.

 

aldo vs homonick.
Cro cop vs fedor.
Alistair vs shogun
wanderlei vs chuck

 

if you werent trying to be mean then you wouldnt have said anything

 

I thought for certain you'd pick Diaz - Daley

 

Fella, Belfort threw at the most 5 punches and all of them missed. He did land a leg kick I seem to remember. Just saying :thumbsup

 

those where good strikes they just didnt land but they where still good strikes :yep

 

Go and play ping pong son, or try cross country jogging :hi:

 

Gomi-Azeredo 1 & 2
Cro Cop-Wand 1
Frye-Takayama

 

stephan bonnar vs forrest griffin I was a good one

 

Apart from some obvious choices i quite enjoyed Rampage vs Griffin as a stand up fight , when it was on the feet that is

Penn Florian was also one of them fascinating stand up affairs as was Penn Sherk

Machida Shogun 1 , Liddell Wanderlei , Couture Sylvia , Fedor Cro Cop , Penn St Pierre 1 would be some of the more obvious ones

 

I've always found Penn vs Edgar very interesting because it really was a classic out-fighter (Edgar) vs boxer-puncher (Penn) match, with Penn taking the centre of the ring while Edgar worked on the outside. What lost Penn the match was that he wasn't fast enough to time his punches to catch Edgar coming inside, so couldn't establish that rhythm were he just wears down his opponents before finishing them in the second half of the fight (as he had with Florian and Sanchez). Penn really needed to completely retool his strategy for the second fight, probably leading with his wrestling, but never did.

 

I was just joking :yep




Kawajiri-Melendez 1 was a good one.
