@@JuHoCH Your gameplan could be working but you could still be losing rounds and losing the fight. He was murdering Izzy's legs but was still down atleast 3-1
the volkanovski performance is actually so underrated. Yea it was a very close fight but for him to turn the tide after being down 2 rounds to None is actually insane against a guy that weaponizes pace like Max
Damnnn I don’t remember volk vs max):):): volk vs Ortega was insannnnne. Ima have to go back and watch the max fight…. I usually sit in the car with a blunt and watch the fights on my phone. All cut up on RUclips😂😂 Must have fell asleep early that day or something😂
When CM Punk in the 6th round landed a beautifully executed Flying Triangle choke spinning double knee on the cranium of Jon “black mr.clean” Jones and then proceeded to body slam joe rogan through the announcers table before he could do his typical joe rogan reaction and then did the worlds first backflip ever!!! Now that was truly the greatest come back of all time bro. He was down 9 rounds and a press conference going into the fifth and managed to pull that hail mary move off!!! Only the second in UFC history!! God bless em! Rip! LLP🕊️ #missed #luvyoupunk #gayforpunk #cmpunk #fuckjonjones #FDR2024 #truestorynotlying
The Leon-Usman upset was crazy. Me and my friends were all really far apart, so one of us streamed the fight and we all watched it together on discord. 15 seconds before the ko, one of my friends said “alright Usman whooped his ass I’m going to bed” and he left the chat. Seconds later Usman got flatlined and we all went nuts, and I mean hands on head, pacing around yelling. My friend was pissed when we face timed him, and needless to say, that was the last time he tuned out of a fight before it was officially over.
Anderson vs Chael was nuts. Definitely my favorite. Honorable mentions go to Frankie Edgar vs Gray Maynard 2, Derrick Lewis vs Volkov, Mighty Mouse literal last second finish, Jon Jones Rd5 vs Alexander Gustafson, Pat Barry v Cheick Kongo etc. there's so many.
Depends🤔 When it comes to how the people expected it to play out pre-fight Not really, Kamaru was the favorite for sure but there were a solid amount of people who gave Leon a solid chance But when it comes to how it played out mid fight 100%☝🏿 It was something that nobody saw coming Usman was dominating so much that people thought that Leon just gave up at some point🤷🏿♂️ That was probably the biggest comeback in UFC history
@@STiergoofballAgreed bro, I remember thinking in the middle of the fourth round "Yeah this is it for Leon. Usman's Taken way too much of a lead. Soon, Usman's gonna have two wins over Leon too. Extending his reign of dominance". By the fifth I was damn near checked out and barely paying attention since I knew kamaru was gonna win. But, I was still pondering something. I had an iota of an inclination that Leon might ko him since kamaru's thinking this fight is as good as won. Then it happened, it was 9am where I lived. I remember screaming so loud that I woke up my brother. I was losing my mind while at the same time having a smile on my face because of what I just witnessed. I even shed a few tears that day which I'm not ashamed to admit. Awesome day and one of my top 2 most memorable moments as a UFC fan.
So many great moments in Leon’s win. That pep talk before round 5, the head kick, “P4P headshot dead.” The first KO I just had to walk away and process for a second.
Glad to see Volk getting some love for his performance in the second Max fight, I've often felt like that's the greatest championship rally of all time (being down 2-0 and then coming back to win all 3 rounds to clarify what I mean specifically)
It may not be top 5 but i think Lawler starching Niko Price in his retirement fight was pretty clutch, especially seeings how you said Lawler was washed up and was going to get Ko'ed.
Na, there’s a saying in combat sports; every great champion has one last one great fight in him. That was Robbie’s swan song. It’s hard to call it clutch when he knocked him out in like 30 seconds, you know? But I love Robbie, that performance and him walking out to Last of The Mohicans theme was absolutely goosebump inducing.
Anderson Silva 5th round triangle and Jiri 5th round choke are two of the big ones. Alex with that fifth round left hook on Izzy and Leon’s 5th round head kick on Usman are two of the most clutch striking performances. I think Matt Hughes recovering from the low blow and follow up offense from Trigg to submit him in the same round is really dope, I don’t know if others would consider that to be “clutch” though. Maurice Smith outlasting Mark Coleman was super clutch and impressive because of how huge of an upset it was, and then shifting to his partner in crime Frank Shamrock’s win over Tito was brilliant game planning and super gritty and clutch. Sakuraba outlasting Royce and TKOing him after 90 minutes was clutch and gritty. It’s hard to differentiate clutch wins from gritty wins in mma, I feel like there is a lot of overlap there. Oh! Miesha Tate over Holly Holm if I were to choose one ladies fight for my list it would definitely be that one, you don’t get much more clutch than that. Plus Miesha has the best booty in the history of the sport.
I’m from England. Stayed up basically all night to watch the leon fight. Got to about 2 minutes before the end and gave up, convinced leon came up short. I was so disappointed. Woke up in the morning and saw everything on RUclips. Mind blown. Got to be one of my biggest regrets😂
Sonnen vs silva is literally Strickland vs izzy but the bad ending version the dominant champ vs the huge underdog that people think are getting the shot because of their "promos" they go in the fight dominant for 5 round but unlike chaeel Strickland didn't get finished in round 5
I remeber watching Leon vs Usman 2 on call with my good friend. He and I both noticed Leon setting up the headlick in the 5th and he said "Hes setting up the left foot headlick, he keeps going for the leg and body hes about to throw it high" and less than a minute later Leon Smoked Usman and i didnt even realize he hit him until Usman was already on his back. Wild shit
It took Stipe 5 rounds to figure out that DC has a hard time with body shots and Jon attacked DC’s body from the first round of the first fight on. That’s the difference between the two and that’s why Jones wins, fight iq.
7:45 "people wernt fucking with volk that much." Dude when volk beat max the first time, and after that second max fight, people despised him. To see him be a massive fam favorite after the islam fight is such a change.
Izzy Alex 5th round should be on this list. The shockwave of damage on Izzy’s face was insane coming against a guy who never was in a 5 round fight in mma.
That Volkanovski performance should not be on this list it was just another close fight between two high level guys, there’s so many of those in the UFC. Bro just has to find any and all opportunities to glaze Volk 😂
Lucas, you’re aware that no fighter goes into a fight at 100% and honestly, I don’t see many fighters getting great sleep before a title fight. I could be wrong, but this “melatonin gate” theory that u tried to push to make the Alex come back even more impressive, was stupid and bad
This is the first video of yours I've watched so I'm just going to assume your new around here but you seem to have made a mistake. You said chael sonnen was submitted by anderson silva and lost the fight when chael simply chose to drop the round because he knew he was up 4-0. I'm sure you're more of just a casual fan but as long as you know from now on it's all good.
Silva Sonnen is by far the most clutch. greatest of all time with the longest win streak ever getting battered for 5 rounds then pulls a sub out of no where
To me Leon didn't looked defeated he looked disappointed in himself. You could argue its the same but you see his face change when he has that fire lit up from underneath him. The human mind is a strange thing.
Problem is that being down 4 rounds and making a KO in the 5th isn't necessarily a clutch if you were setting it up the whole fight. Similarly losing most rounds but it being a tactical fight and then winning a war in the 5th isn't a turn around if it was always coming. Such as Pereira v Adesanya 1, it's a joke when Adesanya fanboys say Israel was "winning the fight". Adesanya was not winning the fight, he was standing infront of an oncoming train.
No intelligent person would willingly drop 4 rounds and then hope to god they can get it in that final round when you’re at your lost damaged and fatigued. Bad take
This may be a 'casual' pick but I really think the McGregor-Aldo KO is the most clutch of all time, I don't think there's been a fighter in history who put as much pressure on himself than McGregor did for that fight
Leon’s headkick is to this day the least expected thing I’ve ever seen in a fight and will always be the most clutch imo
Most definitely, watched it live and couldn’t fathom it for several minutes
Watched it live was happy atm but Leon is not active lmao
herb dean also helped Leon out
It’s like a scene in a movie
@PharoSMG no way we watched the same fight??? usman grabbed the cage and didn’t get called multiple times and Leon did once and got called
@@damianchase4230both, he stood them up in round 5
5th round pereira going full terminator on a point fighting izzy was clutch af
Was going to comment the same thing, but you worded it even funnier than I could have. First fight that came to mind
Kinda disagree, pereira set up the finish the whole 4 previous rounds, I believe that was the game plan all along
@@JuHoCH Your gameplan could be working but you could still be losing rounds and losing the fight. He was murdering Izzy's legs but was still down atleast 3-1

Exactly watching it live i thought max won. But after multiple rewatches i thought Volk won 3 4 5.

I usually sit in the car with a blunt and watch the fights on my phone. All cut up on RUclips😂😂
Must have fell asleep early that day or something😂
@@COD_is_a_sinthere are three max-volk fights…
Paul Craig submitting Ankalaev with literally 1 second left was crazy too.
and Ankalaev still gets pissed every time he thinks about how stupid he was. His only loss... lol

This happened to me literally a minute before the ko I ordered my uber
Bro literally left the room when the climax happened
The pleasures of life ! To see such art
I was in a bar and walked off with everyone behind me jumping on the table screaming
That’s hilarious
Same here, I was talking crazy shit, and looked right up and saw Usman get dropped. It was almost poetic because the timing was perfect.
The leon kick is the most clutch moment of all time
That or Yair vs TKZ

100%☝🏿

Strickland adesanya takes the cake
It remains the only time I was absolutely stunned at what happened in a fight ending sequence 😂 it was just so quick
Yair Rodriguez Vs Kz is the BEST non title fight Clutch in history
Yair is a cool dude but I’ll hate that mf forever for that KZ had that fight 😤
I feel like yair vs TKZ should be on hear cause it was literally a last second KO
was only lasr second coz zombie pulled a max
@@thirtysums gotta be honest clue to what you are referring to bro
I love this kind of content from you man, great work as always!
this dude is one of the best content creators
The Silva triangle on chael is still the biggest comeback I've seen
I love this videos you make
man these videos talking about ufc history are so much better than the ones where you share your opinions
Man you always uploading at the best times I stg. Keep it comin!
Can you do a video about fighters who have the style to beat their division’s champion, even if you don’t think they’ll win?
Great video idea👍🏽
Matt Serra beating GSP could be here too. He was never going to get another opportunity like that, and was fighting the best ever. What a moment
i was there live for the leon edwards kick, one of the best moments of my life

Still can't believe Silva pulled that shit off in the last couple minutes.

And that's why Leon Edwards has the most aesthetic physique
Actually, chael let Anderson win. Because we all know he's undefeated and undisputed so he just thought he would let someone else win for once
If the rule « only title fights » wasn’t included Id automatically think about Darren Elkins vs Mirsad Bektic
Can you pick makhachev so olives can win
I miss the good old days when Lucas did live streams
@@UF01-RI know, he went on vacation with our money
That’s why Leon edwards has the most aesthetic physique
Barboza is his last fight was nuts
Where is Jiri vs Glover that last second sub was insanely clutch
I was looking to see if anyone said this!
To be honest Leon's win in his first defense against Usman was more impressive because he beat him without a last minute fluke head kick
he set that up. not a fluke.
This is about clutch moments. So there is no reason to mention the third fight
sonen vs spider silva
This was a good video, nice editing
Pereira vs the gynobender was clutch asf
I think that TKZ vs Rodriguez deserces a mention
You should do a follow up to this called Most Clutch Fighters In UFC History and then explain to everyone why it's Gerald Meerschaert😂
Moreno vs Kai 2 is severly underrated
This man is rocking the real life Beavis from Beavis and Butthead hairdo
Herb Dean was even shook 😂 12:08

Well that’s why Izzy will never be the middleweight goat.
Happy to see Silva Sonnen here but ppl forget about the mendes mcgregor fight

Izzy Alex 5th round should be on this list. The shockwave of damage on Izzy’s face was insane coming against a guy who never was in a 5 round fight in mma.
Don't forget about Lewis vs Volkov!
I was in the process of turning the fight off for Leon when he won, I felt shocked cotton
I don’t know what to do with myself anymore
Volk surviving the subs against Ortega is pretty clutch
how does this man find a way to put volk in every single video
Also stipe had to overcome...finger touch of blindness...
In chaels defense he thought tapping meant he lost the round 😂
This is why Leon Edwards has the most functional and aesthetic physique of all time
That Volkanovski performance should not be on this list it was just another close fight between two high level guys, there’s so many of those in the UFC. Bro just has to find any and all opportunities to glaze Volk 😂
peirera vs izzy 1 would be another one for me
This man hasn’t watched any old mma
How’s Frank Mir vs Nourgeira (Arm Bar) not on here?
Alex pereira and jiri were pretty clutch last year. Their fights were competitive tho
Bedtime mma sleeps you in a fight
I don’t know what to do with myself anymore I just want to be able to
Guess I'm part of Volk's family then cause I was rooting for him against Max in the rematch

It's not really a comeback though it happened immediately. It's definitely an all time great KO no doubt though.
Where is Chris Barnett vs Jake collier?
What about Pereira Adesanya 1?
Lewis vs Volkov…..Lewis was losing 14:56 of that fight 😅 clutch KO
