MMA is such a crazy sport, unlike most others, where ONE mistake can end the competition immediately. Most sports have a time cap and one can make a mistake, but dominate the rest of the game and still win. Here is a few major blunders that cost as fight from possible victory..

-Werdum charging forward hands down VS stipe
-Aldo's failed blitzkreig vs Conor
-Weidman's failed spin vs Luke
-Chael's failed spin vs Anderson
-Brock handing his foot to Mir by stepping into guard
-Nog in full mount pounding mir out, decides to attempt a half ass sub. Herb's constant 'watch back of the head' prob contributed to his decision

What is some more?
 
Fedor jumped Werdums guard not once but two times
 
"You know what? I'm going to let this guy knee me in the head" - Sakuraba against Elvis, despite winning the exchanges at distance and constantly clinching to meet the knee feast.
 
Fedor rushin on Werdum , Bigfoot and Hendo
 
Anderson pretending to be hurt, then actually getting KTFO by Weidman.
 
Arlovski attempting a flying knee from distance against Fedor.
 
Tim Sylvia marching straight toward Fedors bombs instead of fighting at distance.

BONUS - Another Big Tim moment when he bull rushed Ray Mercer, blocking with his chin.
 
- Dumb ass spinning backfist by Sonnen
- Heath Herring allowing Nog up after the kick
- Denis Kang lighting Alan Belcher up, goes for the takedown, gets subbed
- Luiz Azeredo's showboating against short-fused, stone-handed Takanori Gomi (terrible mistake)
- McMann's "flying knee" against Ronda
- Werdum's running face-first into Stipe's fist

Also, not really a mistake but I believe Arona should have been aware of Rampage's penchant for slamming people... and not have gone for a triangle.
