3 may be a little high but Barboza is an amazing kicker.

Hes a fantastic kicker.

Add Antoni Hardonk to that list. He also has 2. Colin Robinson and Sherman Pendergrast. He finished Robinson in 17 seconds with leg kicks. That is unheard of.

If i remember right, Hardonk TKO'd both those guys with ONE kick. That guy had crazy leg kicks. Don't get why Rogan kept saying Barboza was the first to do that.

That's weird. Rogan should know better. I know for a fact that Brandon Vera also did against Mike Patt way before Barboza. Was the first Brandon Vera fight I ever saw.

It says he finished Sherman by KO/TKO Punch.

That 17 second finish by kicks though is unbelievable. Very impressive. I guess its because technically he was the first one in UFC history to do it. I believe I saw the 17 second win via leg kicks but I don't know if I saw the other, I'm sure he destroyed the guy's legs but they ruled it a KO/TKO Via Punch not Leg Kicks.

Vera didn't do it twice and Rogan said Barboza was the first to do it twice.

Juninho could be the best free kick guy ever...i love how players basically take credit for free kick techniques that he's done for years.

@jonny go watch the fight between Hardonk and Pendergarst, if i remember right Hardonk throws a combo, ends it with a leg kick and Sherman fell to the mat.

I'm a huge Rogan fan but if you're using something Joe said to support your argument then well....you don't really have an argument. Joe is knowledgable but often makes himself sound stupid by being incredibly biased so anything he says is far from fact. As far as an encyclopedic knowledge of MMA goes, Jordan Breen over at Sherdog very much knows his **** but he has zero fighting knowledge. Regarding someone who knows his **** and knows fighting, you can't look past Frank Mir. You can try but you will fail.

Also, on Hardonk vs Sherman, I remember watching that fight and Antoni basically knocked him out with a leg kick. Whether he rocked him before hand I can't remember but I do remember Sherman being finished with a vicious leg kick.

Rogan said in Mighty Mouse's last fight that the first time he watched him live was at UFC 126 (i think) when he fought KID, yet he commentated Mouse's fight against Pickett in the WEC. I like Joe, but how the hell does he forget something like that lol
