Is Moreira KO the worst soccer kick in mma history?

Change that title to "Most Brutal" in your head before you answer

Real question.

I think it's how measured the whole thing is.
It felt a bit American History X somehow.
Pulver vs. Arai was pretty bad but this Moreira's one is beyond brutal.

probably!!

check out this fight from bellator, it was also pretty brutal, even if it was accidental!

go to the second round with 90 seconds left... ouch

If people want to fight with a soccer kick rule, or under vale tudo rules, fuck it, do what you like. But this is incredibly dangerous and looks awful for the sport. Enjoying watching it is fair enough, but a guilty pleasure imo

Didn't Thiago Santos soccer kick Eric Prindle in the nuts when he was on the floorat Bellator.
I remember that looking pretty nasty as well.

Ouch. And how has Huerta's career gone down the pan so badly? 1-6 since leaving the UFC? Wow.

this!!!!!

shocking! he couldnt defend himself and for a career that really has went south how can he (or anyone that this happens to) expect to have a longjevity in their career. these kinds of kicks aren't skillful just brutal. the fighters health is seriously on the line

[RKing85]

it's up there for sure.

That was nasty.
