MMA is very serious athletes competing in a very serious sport, but sometimes things are just funny. Why, because they just are. BleacherReport compiled this list of the Top 20 funniest moments in MMA history (in no particular order), and we’ve highlighted a few here:
Wanderlei Silva wants to do what to Chuck?
Kalib Starnes vs. Nate Quarry
Heath Herring gets kissed, delivers a KO
Run Forrest, Run
Chael Sonnen
Forrest Griffin on Chris Leben
Lesnar Goes Nut at UFC 100
Matt Riddle is an original pranksta
Mark Coleman celebrtes a bit too hard
I am not impressed with your performance
Nick Diaz has harsh words for Ariel Helwani
Randy Couture spanks Tito Ortiz
Diego Sanchez’s drunked ‘Nightmare’
Double KO w/ Shonie Carter
‘Hit him with your groin, Georges’
Mike Goldberg
Nick Diaz gives Frank Shamrock the finger
Joe Rogan vs. a bag of ice
Joe Rogan is a standup comedian, so I usually go into a UFC event expecting him to make me laugh once or twice, but his verbal explosion over a bag of ice being ripped at UFC 109 was one of the best moments of his career.
Dan Henderson destroys Michael Bisping
When these two were coaches opposite each other on The Ultimate Fighter season 9, Bisping did a lot of talking to try and get under Henderson’s skin.
Henderson repeatedly said he would finish things in the Octagon, and he did just that, landing a brutal right hand and giving us one of the most iconic pictures in MMA history.
Ken Shamrock will ‘Beat you into the living death’
Prior to their first of three fights, Ken Shamrock and Tito Ortiz were at a pre-fight press conference when Shamrock gave us one of the best quotes in MMA history, telling Ortiz that if he wasn’t ready he would beat him into the living death.
As funny as the quote is itself, Tito’s insane laughter is what makes the clip one of the best on the web.
Feel to agree, disagree, and add some of the moments you think missed the list.
