Nick Diaz would be a deffinate maybe for me, other than that it would be BJ Penn and Joachim Hansen.

Seen the fight? It's really not as impressive as people are going on about. Definitely isn't worthy of saying this guy would destroy Anderson (referring to a thread in the contenders)

Here's a play by play of the fight:

Hunt RUSHES in and while backing up/falling backwards toward the ropes, Melvin throws a left and a right, left doesn't do anything but as soon as the right hits, Hunt collapes.

It wasn't a evans/liddell situation.

More like Kimbo/Seth, in regards to the punch didn't even look like a ko punch but Hunt just collapsed anyway.

I file this fight in the same category as Alexander/Irvin. It's just a quick ko that seems more like an accident, even Melvin looked surprised Hunt went down from that.

But judging from these forums (I'm guessing a lot of people havn't seen the fight) you'd think this was a Anderson/Leben situation in which Melvin just rocked and walked through Hunt.

that's just not how it happened.

I respectfully disagree. Punches were thrown with the intention of landing. Who was the last person to knock out Hunt? I can answer that------NOONE.
