In the world of MMA, there are moves so iconic that they have become the trademark of certain fighters. In this scenario, Tom aspinall, in a video published by 'TNT on UFC', created his own ranking of the most iconic punches in the sport, placing the famous left cross at Alex Poatán in second place, behind only the legendary flying knee of Jorge masvidal.

Even though, in the UFC, Poatan has already achieved four knockouts using his cross, while Masvidal has only one victory with a flying knee, the starring moment by 'Jesus das Ruas' takes the top spot in the rankings, probably because it is the fastest knockout in the organization's history, with just seven seconds over Ben askren.
In addition to Poatan and Masvidal, Aspinall placed himself in third place with his efficient 'jab and straight', responsible for knocking out names like Curtis blaydes e Sergei Pavlovich. Fourth and fifth place went to the spinning kicks of Edson Barboza e Jon Jonesrespectively.
