I thought Lawal's was the most badass of all 3 of those... smackdown right hands from guard like a boss.

Lawler basically missed on the knee though.  He grazed him and knocked him down from what I could tell.

He grazed him, but it looked to me like he hurt him with it

I think the replay showed it from a bad angle.  I'm not sure, but I think Lawler's shin nailed him.

I love Robbie Lawlers demeanor. He is so cool, calm and collective. You can tell he loves the sport of MMA.

Robbie Lawler vaulting over Adlan Amagov without touching him is KO of the Year.

Barboza's KO will be hard to beat we may have seen the best KO of the year already.

I remember how everyone thought Edgar/Maynard II would be fight of the year. I had to think about which fight was really FOTY countless times. It's early and anything can happen. I'll be shocked if number one moves at all though.

The only way I see it getting passed is if someone pulls off a Van Damme style jumping spin kick KO.

I don't know, as of right now I think it is the KO of the year, he didn't even have to hit him again.  I think its entirely to early in the year to start discussing this however.  Lets wait until atleast october.
