The head kick knockout. There might not be a more popular highlight in all of MMA.
One of the best in history came courtesy of Gabriel Gonzaga, who gave Mirko Filipovic a taste of his own medicine at UFC 70 in 2007. “Napao” put “Cro Cop” to sleep with a massive kick to the head – the move Filipovic was known for.
On Saturday, the two rematch just short of eight years later. Will the result be the same? Or will Filipovic (30-11-2 MMA, 4-6 UFC) get some revenge against Gonzaga (16-9 MMA, 11-8 UFC) in the UFC Fight Night 64 main event?
Don’t miss Saturday’s event, which takes place at Tauron Arena in Krakow, Poland. But before that, check out Joe Rogan in the video above. The longtime UFC analyst breaks down his top eight head kick knockouts in history.
