Wanderlei Silva smiled during Vicious Stomp Ko
Silva scored knockouts in 27 of his 35 wins, so there is a lot of competition for his best Ko.
However, the victory of the 48-year-old on Kundo is undoubtedly the most violent of his 51-Vecht MMA career.
The Japanese hunter was beaten by Silva's right hand during the first round of their famous fight on Pride Final Conflict 2004.
Kundo never got the chance to recover while his opponent smelled blood and went headhunting.
Silva chased 'Sora' around the ring until he dropped him with a sneaky left hook. As soon as Kundo hit the ground, it only got worse when the MMA icon started to stamp on his head mercilessly until he lost consciousness.
The UFC has just legalized Ellebogen, but football kicks will almost never be allowed in the Octagon again.
Unfortunately Kundo ate a few extra stairs against the head when he was cold. In the end, the referee managed to subtract Silva, who grinned from ear to ear after making his opponent immobile on the canvas.
More than two decades after their fight, fans are still blown away by Silva's ruthless Ko from Kundo.
They keep expressing their shock every time a clip of the frightening finish goes viral on social media.
Joe Rogan informs Podcast -Gast on Wanderlei Silva
Last year Joe Rogan sat down for a three-hour conversation with Podcaster, Youtuber and club promoter, Chris Williamson, who received a non-realized training about Wanderlei Silva.
'Do you ever see Wanderlei Silva fights? Asked the UFC commentator. “His nickname was” The Ax Murderer. “
Rogan added: “When he was a young man, he was an animal. He was so scary.
“And he had a cool tattoo on the back of his head. He was an animal, guy.
“He becomes a champion in pride, but he was on people. Here he is against Guy Mezger, who is a very good hunter, and Wanderlei has just overwhelmed him with heads, knees and everything.
“Monster! He was a monster in his prime. He had to get his face reconstructed because his nose was so flat that he couldn't breathe out at all.
“So they took a large piece of cartilage from his rib and reconstructed his face, and he had a totally new face. They made it big, he got a big nose so that he could really breathe. Yes, he looked like another person.
“After the operation he showed up one day and I thought:” What's the matter? “”
