here me out...

Everyone has a button. Hunt's chin has been hyped to hell because he's taken some big stuff--Mirko's kick being the most famous--but the simple fact is no one ever hit that button.

People are trying make it out like Melvin actually hit him HARDER than anyone ever has, which is why he went down.

Hit him harder than Mirko's kick?.....even while falling backwards towards the ropes?

No...

this wasn't a matter of power nearly as much as accuracy. I'm sure it had some nice power behind it but this was all about hitting the right spot.

and for THAT I give Melvin credit. But I'm not going to be fooled into believing it was because he hit Hunt harder than anyone has ever hit him like most sherdoggers have somehow fooled themselves into believing.

edit: god how did i forget crocop!
We have a comedian here!

Tell me good jokes!






...Please?

Everyone has a button. Hunt's chin has been hyped to hell because he's taken some big stuff--Mirko's kick being the most famous--but the simple fact is no one ever hit that button.
Le Banner, Sefo, Graham, Hoost, Cro Cop and Leko never found the button. Though Cro Cop and Le Banner knocked him down nicely for example.

If this was K-1 do you think Mark would have answered the count?

My vote goes to A. Silva.

Liddell from a few years ago was entertaining. Gotta love the backpedaling knockouts.
