Better comeback: Smith vs Sell or Kongo vs Barry?

I couldn't help but think about Scott Smith vs Pete Sell when Sell landed a viscous liver shot on Smith and it seemed like it was all over until Smith landed a right cross outta nowhere. After he landed the punch he fell to the canvas still in agony from the shot Sell landed.



In my opinion a liver shot is much harder to recover from quickly than a head shot. I've been hit by both and the liver shot will basically paralyze you if its landed right. Since people are calling this Kongo comeback one of the best ever what comeback do you think was more impressive, Smith or Kongo?








Gotta be Kongo

Kongo went out like 3 times - that shit was epic.

 But Kongo recovered quickly, Smith fell to the canvas in pain after the fight was stopped. That's gotta count for something right?

They were both epic, but in different ways.

Let's just agree that they're both fantastic in their own way.

As much as I love Sell and Smith...I think it goes to Kongo just cause he was out a few times (it seems) and probably pretty close to being stopped

Kongo

This. I think the difference lies in the fact that Kongo had recovered and then won, and Smith won while he was still (basically) incapacitated.

Kongo claimed the title in spectacular fashion.

Personally i prefer the Smith one. But they are both epic.

 Both amazing.

Smith because that was a damn clean punch KO and still afterwards he was down in pain. A "one last shot" comeback.

My thoughts exactly.

Both amazing.. Arlovski vs sylva was good too.. Phone Post

Monsters Ball - People are silly if they think they can watch a TV and then claim somebody was out 3 times. I think a trained ref that is standing right there can better make that judgement call.

easily.

Sell running after Smith before knockout...is a thing of beauty.

Smith sold it better. It looked like something from the movies.

Kongo was impressive but it didn't have that Hail Mary quality to it.

Unless their "judgment" has them standing up fighters attempting submissions.
