Sitting down to write any best-of list is a no-win situation for the writer. There’s always someone who gets left off, and you hear about it. (Sorry Mac Danzig.) Or there’s someone who shouldn’t be there, and you hear about it. (You’re welcome, Frank Mir.)
But that’s also what makes these lists so great – they always elicit discussion. There’s no right or wrong answers, but all the opinions bring out some great and endless debates, part of what makes sports in general, and mixed martial arts in particular, so fun to talk about.
It’s in that vein that we bring you the best knockouts of 2010, and in a little different style than a typical Top 10 list. Sure, dropping in some fun categories apart from one man’s opinion of the best of the year is a cheap way to list more knockouts – ensuring there are fewer snubs. But despite taking the easy way out, we still hope you’ll enjoy a look back at 25 of the year’s best knockouts. We beseech you: Go easy on the writer. And let the debate begin.
