Ignacio Bahamondes burst onto the radar with one of the most replayed knockouts in recent UFC memory: a spinning wheel kick that flattened Roosevelt Roberts in the dying seconds of their 2021 bout. The Chilean's length and creative striking made him an instant fan favorite.
Since then he's grown into a genuinely dangerous lightweight, mixing flashy finishes with grinding wins, including a notable victory over fellow long man Jalin Turner. At 17-6 he's still climbing, and the better names like Rafael Fiziev have shown him where the level is.
What keeps Bahamondes must-watch is simple: he actually throws and lands the spectacular stuff. Every fight carries the threat of a viral finish, which is exactly why fans circle his name on a card.
Why fans love Bahamondes
Length, creativity and a real spinning-kick knockout on his record. He fights to entertain.
