Favorite MMA submission

[Dertysandal]

Maia triangling chael was impressive

 

[VanMMA]

Rousimar Palhares fights

Shinya Aoki vs Mizuto Hirota

If the evil genius of this submission wasn't enough to sell you on it, the agony of Borg's face has to be. Kid fought so hard too.

He lasted longer than he had any right to last. He was just fighting a better martial artist. Anyone who doesn't respect borg for the way he went out can fuck off imo

My favorite Maia sub was vs magny... total master class IMO

 

[Ares Black]

Any specific fights I should watch?

He's got so many, Id have to do some research. Here's a HL.

 

[Luvhawky]

Zombie twister.

It's a wrestler's guillotine, fucking Eddie bravo...

 

[Sunken]

chin to the eye

Abdominal stretch bro.

 

[Helden]

Zombie vs Garcia II.

Man I've seen this finish in random gifs before but it doesn't do it the justice it deserves. Watching the whole fight is great and the way he finished him after getting in position with only 20seconds left in the round... WOWZA

 

[Mad Dollar]

Silva vs Sonnen = GOAT SUB.

 

[YOLOGOGOPLATA]

Silva vs Sonnen = GOAT SUB.

Only because of the circumstances surrounding it. There have been better IMO, but this was about as clutch as you can get - not hating

 

[Mad Dollar]

Silva vs Sonnen = GOAT SUB.

Also watch: Lesnar vs Carwin, Kampmann vs Alves, Sonnen vs Shogun, and basically all Frank Mirs and Paul Sass subs are awesome, if you haven't seen them yet..!

 

[Magx951]

too lazy to find a gif but the way he took the back was sweet

Haven't seen sonnen/shogun. Will watch! Thanks bubba
Lesnar/carwin is one of my fav fights ever

For the most part, in mma you only have to be able to defend a few submissions. With that thought, some of my favorite - I believe it was a Korean guy, hit a twister, really liked that. Ken Shamrock's kneebar on Bas(?) was very nice. Fast, smooth ( can I say graceful?) transition. MM slamming a guy and hitting the armbar before they hit the ground. And lastly, a flying Heel hook hit on Anderson Silva.

Agreed kid fought with more heart than most fighters in the orginization. Hope he improves and earns another shot some day.

Other than MM's armbar suplex, Olivera's calf slicer was one of the most painful submissions I've ever seen. I'd rather be knocked out than be trapped on either of those subs.

At such a youthful age he can improve until MM's career starts to decline. I think he has a great shot at a title it may just not be for 2-3 years (when he'd still be 28 I believe)
