Hi fellow MMA fans, i have gone over all the UFC events in 2016 and tried to compile the 10 best fights that year - was curious to know which one the majority thinks was the best one -

1. Dominick Cruz vs Cody Garbrandt - Bantamweight Championship - UFC 207
2. Cub Swanson vs Doo Ho Choi - UFC 206
3. Tyron Woodley vs Stephen Thompson - Welterweight Championship - UFC 205
4. Conor McGregor vs Nate Diaz II - UFC 202
5. Tony Ferguson vs Lando Vannata - UFC Fight Night 91
6. Joanna Jedrzejczyk vs Claudia Gadhela II - Women's Strawweight Championship - Ultimate Fighter 23 Finale
7. Marco Polo Reyes vs Dong Hyun Kim - UFC 199
8. Michael Bisping vs Anderson Silva - UFC Fight Night 84
9. Robbie Lawler vs Carlos Condit - Welterweight Championship - UFC 195
10. Other

Other notable mentions -
- Francisco Trinaldo vs Yancy Medeiros - UFC 198
- Steve Bosse vs Sean O'Connell - UFC Fight Night 89
- Tony Ferguson vs Rafael Dos Anjos - UFC Fight Night 98
- Dan Henderson vs Hector Lombard - UFC 198
- Dominick Cruz vs TJ Dillashaw - Bantamweight Championship - UFC Fight Night 81

My pick - Cub Swanson vs Doo Ho Choi - lets just say this is the one fight which has evoked the most emotion out of me since Melendez vs Sanchez. Hell of a fight!

What are your picks? And do mention any other notable good fights worth checking out if i have missed them..
 
Diaz vs Conor 2 easily, for as much hype as the fight had it even surpassed expectations and it was thrilling. The middle rounds of Condit vs Lawler weren't good while every round of Conor vs Nate had momentum swings and a story.
 
CUB and choi by a mile..
but really no one think that max holloway and lamas was worth a mention.?
 
I've enjoyed a lot this year. Conor Diaz 2, probably gets my vote.
 
I enjoyed Lawler vs Condit.

That definitely had a lot of stuff going on.

Where is Khabib vs Johnson ? That ground and pound rape was impressive. Ah wait Muslim.
 
Condit vs Lawler on pure in-cage story.

But with absolutely all things considered... Diaz vs McGregor 2.


Fantastic year for fights though.
 
tough one... I like all the fights menioned here.

I think i have to go with Cub v Choi here
 
Crazy that bisping-Silva was this yr. seems so long ago
 
Dominick Cruz vs Cody Garbrandt

Choi vs Swanson was mindless brawling and embarrassing to watch
 
Where is Khabib vs Johnson ? That ground and pound rape was impressive. Ah wait Muslim.
One of the best performances of the year does not equal fight of the year, lol. Accusing bigotry is pathetic.
