14. Edson Barboza vs. Beneil Dariush
If we were making an all-time list, then Edson Barboza’s spinning roundhouse kick over Terry Etim in 2012 would be on here. But the Brazilian is a serial finisher as Dariush found out the hard way. The pair fought back in 2016 in Fortaleza, Brazil, in a lightweight thriller. After two rounds, Barboza pulled off the spectacular yet again.
Dariush threw a jab as a feint before a takedown attempt. However, Barboza saw it coming and timed a switch knee perfectly. His American opponent ran forward into it and probably did more damage to himself than Barboza did. The referee brilliantly threw himself in the way of Barboza because he was ready to unleash the ground-and-pound.
