Kongo/Barry squeeked in behind the Seagal duo.

I think Barry would probably win 7/10 fights with Kongo.

I disagree about Barry winning that fight 7/10 times. I think Barry wins the striking in the fight 9/10 times, but 7/10 times Kongo clinches and grapples him.

I don't see it, Barry was owning him until, well you know what, and is Kongo really going to diss his own striking skills and grapple Barry? But it's MMA, who fracking knows?

@yaspaa, Kongo grappled with Browne, Buentello and tried to grapple with Velasquez after rocking him. I'm sure there are other examples from his earlier fights that I don't remember. The UFC likes to convince us that he's a striker, but he's a grappler. He has great striking, but he likes to get on top and land elbows, or clinch up and land knees (to the groin).

I dont know  the  Kongo KO  was  great, it might have been better for me cause i had money on Kongo, but it was a great KO

the kongo one needs to be highly ranked due to how hurt he was and how lopsided the first couple exchanges were, it was such a confusing and intense fight to watch.  It blew my mind.  It doesnt however top the first front kick and jumping front kick kos

If Freire vs. Imada isn't in your Top 5, you haven't seen it.

Kongo vs. Barry was absolutely crazy.

Stout vs. Edwards - Edwards was out for about 5 minutes from that KO.

Silva vs. Belfort - That front kick was just amazing. It seemed like it came out of nowhere.

Alll these are great KOs. The silva vs belfort one was my favorite though.
