I want to put together 3 hours of the fights for 2012. All orgs qualify. I'm eventually going to skim through all of the UFC, BFC, Invicta FC, TPF and SF events to put together a list but you guys can save me some time I'll add fights to this posts as you guys suggest them. 1. Chan Sung Jung vs Dustin Poirier 16:07 2. Jamie Varner vs Joe Lauzon 12:44 3. Jim Miller vs Joe Lauzon 15:00 4. Jon Fitch vs Erik Silva 15:00 5. Roland Delorme vs Nick Denis 4:59 6. Miesha Tate vs Julie Kedzie 13:28 7. Lloyd Woodard vs Patricky Freire 6:46 8. Ronda Rousey vs Miesha Tate 4:27 9. John Lineker vs Louis Gaudinot 9:54 10. John Albert vs. Ivan Menjivar 3:45 11. John Albert vs. Scott Jorgensen 4:59 12. Nate Marquardt vs Tyron Woodley 16:39 13. Sarah Kaufman vs Alexis Davis 15:00 (We're at like 140 minutes out of 180) I feel like we're forgetting some good Bellator fights.
Off the top of my head, and maybe because this fight just happened, but Miller vs. J-Lo was really good. Probably not the best of 2012, but a darn good match IMO.
Lauzon vs Varner KZ vs Poirer Fitch vs Silva Miesha Tate vs Julie Kedzie Roland Delorme vs Nick Denis
Lauzon-Varner Lauzon-Miller Bendo-Nate Jake-Diego Bendo-Edgar 1 Marquardt-Woodley Woodward-Patricky I didn't enjoy KZ-Poirer as much as everyone else seemed to.
Barboza vs. Etim Dustin P. vs. J. Brookins KZ VS. Dustin Jim Miller vs. Joe Lauzon Rousey vs. Tate GSP vs. Condit Nate Diaz vs. Donald Cerrone Anthony Pettis vs. Joe Lauzon Cain Velasquez vs. Big Foot DC vs. Josh Barnett Alverez vs. Chandler Chris Weidman vs. Mark Munoz
KZ-Poirer Lauzon-Varner Lauzon-Miller Lineker-Gaudinot Ellenberger-Sanchez Marquardt-Woodley Henderson-Edgar(1st fight) Fitch-Silva I think that's most of them
Everyone has such great fights listed, any of those could work. The worst fight? Nothing can undo the 25 minutes of torture that was Evans Davis
If I was to put a list together it would look like this Kz vs Porier Lauzon vs Varner Gsp vs Condit Edgar vs Bendo 1 Kampmann vs Ellenberger Shogun vs Vera McCall vs MM 1 Aldo vs Mendes Lauzon vs Miller Silva vs Bonnar Fitch vs Silva A few more but that's off the top of the dome
If you want to look at the UFC's FOTN bonuses from this year: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UFC_bonus_award_recipients Scroll down to or ctl+f UFC 142 for all the 2012 events.
What about Brian Rogers vs Vitor Vianna/Andreas Spang? Or Bryan Baker vs Karl Amoussou? And I feel like we are forgetting some Russian fighters exciting fights.
