Do fans overrate finishing ability?

There’s a lot of hype around KO artists and submission finishers, but sometimes decision fighters are more consistent and effective. Do fans overvalue highlight finishes when judging greatness?

Fans definitely overrate flashy finishes. One knockout and suddenly people start calling you “greatest ever”. Meanwhile the calm technical guys that are winning consistently get ignored because they don't create viral clips. Not every victory must look like action movie trailer before it counts.

I think fans often overrate finishing ability. Finishes are exciting and memorable, but consistent winning usually depends on positioning, defense, conditioning, and decision-making.
