CRobi21 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I thought he was out too but no I can't argue Kongo wasn't intelligently defending. He looked out several times but sprang up like a rubber ball as soon as he hit the ground. That finish was insane! Yea Its just my bias. I'm a big Barry fan. He never fully finished him off.

CRobi21 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Looking at it, once Kongo got up and backed up against the cage, Barry came in with his hands down. Probably thinking Kongo was still pretty out of it and got caught. Damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artmonkforHOF Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Mitrione vs. Kongomakes sense to me :whoknows: That's not fair to Mitrione, putting him in against a man that is legally un-killable. I guess if Matt took the fight his game plan would have to be KO Kongo at least 3 times, cause the 2 KO's by Barry where not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's certainly a gate keeper fighter. If you can't beat him, do not advance to go and do not collect $200. :pfft: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kongo has 1 TKO loss on his hands to Gilbert Yvel. I don't see Matt winning the fight as he is a KO specialist and from what I saw last night, you cannot knock out Kongo. I'd take that fight all day if I was Kongo, and run like hell if I was Mitrione. I like PeeWee Herman for Matt, and I still can't think of anyone I would want to see Kongo fight yet.

Mir dropped him with a left hook then choked him unconscious with a guillotine. If Mir can drop him with strikes, then Mitrione can too. ---------- Post added June-27th-2011 at 01:32 PM ---------- Beat me to it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great night of fights from top to bottom" KO of the night ? That was the KO of the Century ! Maybe the best KO ever in the UFC, and perhaps the greatest comeback ever in the UFC. What do you all think of the greater comeback : Silva vs Sonnen, or Kongo vs Barry ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his lights did not go out from those Barry punches then no one is going to knock him out. I can see a repeat of the Barry fight if Kongo fights Mitrione or any other heavy hitter, they land one shot on Kongo, see him wobble and let their guard down as they go in for the kill shot and BAM! Kongo finds a wide open chin. I don't see Kongo losing by KO, maybe by a ref stoppage TKO but more likely a submission or decision loss. ---------- Post added June-27th-2011 at 04:08 PM ---------- KO of the night ?That was the KO of the Century ! Maybe the best KO ever in the UFC, and perhaps the greatest comeback ever in the UFC. What do you all think of the greater comeback : Silva vs Sonnen, or Kongo vs Barry ? Silva was more impressive by far. The Kongo comeback was crazy, probably the craziest minute of UFC ever, but Silva was on his back for 4 rounds and fought with a cracked rib all against a dirty fighter. To pull that submission move at that time was the greatest UFC comeback of all time, hands down no questions asked. The only way someone tops Anderson's comeback is if they fight 5 rounds from their back and the guy on top actually causes some serious damage, something Chael was unable to do in 20minutes plus of top position.

Chachie Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Scott Smith and Chris Leben both had comeback KOs that rivaled what Kongo did last night but it sure was fun to watch anyway. The Silva comeback was a sub (so it belongs in another category) and he was never in any danger of being finished by Sonnen that in the fight. He was just behind on points.

The point is that Kong/Mitrione makes sense for both fighters and that if someone like Mir (who's weakness has been his striking) can drop Kongo, then someone like Mitrione (who's a better striker) has a good chance against him.

Phannman66 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 So me and my buddy are on a baseball road trip, and are gonna be away from our usual bar to watch 132.
