Barboza's finish was just beautiful to watch: http://youtu.be/pVmLZgZ1Ld4

(apologies for poor video, YouTube keeps taking all the good ones off)

It definitely was, and I'm sure my sensei will be thrilled since he loves using that kick in sparring . Here's a page that has a good video on it that has both normal speed and super-slow-motion: http://deadspin.com/5876227/edson-barbozas-roadhouse+style-face+kick-knockout-is-even-better-when-slowed-down-500

I really liked the combination he used right before the spinning hook kick, too.

nice vid Wastelander Really does show Etim stiff as a board when he gets hit. Don't usually make any special effort to watch the UFC but if there's gonna be more of striking like this..

Any time Barboza, Njokuani, Machida or Siver fight you should probably be watching if you like to see good striking!
