Dunno. I guess I'm just not as impressed by this as everyone else is.
Sure, it's a flashy move. But if it had not connected at all, everyone would be laughing at Pettis and calling it an "amateur" move.
Everyone would be saying that shit like this doesn't belong in MMA and that fighters should be focusing on tight boxing skills and wrestling instead of flashy moves.
But... because it landed and knocked Bendo down, it's the best move in MMA ever recorded.
I guess I'm just an asshole that way. It was cool he was able to pull it off, sure, but "the greatest move ever"? I don't see it.
Personally, I think Aoki's mounted gogoplata finish of Nagata was more impressive. I mean, he finished the fight using a gogo from the mount.
