That Lawler ko may be the definition of a hail mary ko too, Manhoef was destroying him before that. Not just winning or controlling the action, but destroying. You have ignored this user.

He will win the fans and he will win his freedom! I don't get this. If you want to see Manhoef fight strikers only, why do you even want to see him in UFC, or MMA at all? You could just follow his kickboxing career.... You have ignored this user.

"I cannot say now which specifically I consider good. I can say that the best is Melvin Manhoef." - Melvin Manhoef via PVT

lol @ how he talks about himself in the third person.

Melvin is a damn beast though.
Would love to see him in the UFC.

There are elements to his striking that are definitely a class above anyone else in mma, without a doubt.

But he also lacks in certain area's, but in a sense that's almost what defines him.
He's just all poise and looking for the big shots.
And he's had success with it so can't exactly criticize.

Silva

Belfort

Shlemenko

Belcher
Melvin beats everyone on that list not named Anderson striking

Just like he beat Robbie Lawler (who's not nearly as good a striker as anyone on this list)?

Silva

Belfort

Shlemenko

Le

Belcher

He fights at WW now, but we'll go with this list.

MM has 3 TKO/ko losses... 25 KO wins (Some over hard hitting HW's)

Le has 11 fights and he has already been KOed twice, his style is unique, but a better striker than MM? No.

Sclemenko? 2x the fights as MM, and about the same amount of KO wins. But, I can see an arguement here, I don't agree, but I see the arguement.

Belcher? really? Belcher hasn't put away a striker with strikers in 7 years.... TKOed some grapplers, but still.

Belfort and Silva... Sure.
