Higest level mma fights ever?

Based on what?

Who is Colby Covington's signature win? Nearby decisions over RDA and Maia in the twilight of his career? RDA is a .500 welterweight, now back at lightweight. Masvidal coming off back to back losses? Woodley coming off back to back losses one fight from retirement?

Colby hasn't fought any of his peers. He is one of the least proven ranked welterweights in the division.


Maia fight wasnt close at all.

Current top 5 Belal barely edged an even older Maia.
 
Mighty Mouse vs Dodson 2 was entertaining

I wish I had watched more Dodson fights. He's incredibly explosive even past his prime in a division of fast fighters. I recently watched him blitz through his opponents in BKFC and Rizin.
 
Jones v Cormier seems a reasonable answer, I also thought of Sandhagen v Yan, both showed great skills in that one.

Ya he's explosive as hell. Their first fight was great also. He damn near took Johnson's head off a few times in the beginning similar to Maynard vs Edgar but the second I felt the second one was like a dbz fight speed was insane.
 
Rockhold vs weidman
Yan vs sandhagen
Benson vs Pettis
Jones vs DC
Dillashaw vs Cruz

Dillashaw vs Cruz absolutely but soured because I felt Dillashaw won. Sandhagen vs Yan was fantastic, so was Moraes vs Cejudo despite Moraes flaws he was world class. Jones vs DC 1 and Benson vs Pettis 1 are some of the absolute first fights that come to mind.
 
Colby Covington hasn't fought any of his peers and we have no real reason to believe he beats them. He went to reasonably close decisions with Maia and RDA. There isn't anything in his body of work that puts him on a high enough level to even be in the discussion.
How the fuck was fight with Maia close decision?Maia almost died there
RDA lost 4-1 again not close decision
 
Gamrot vs Tsarukyan was a great fight, excellent skill sets wherever the fight went, insane cardio and toughness by both
There are many but a couple of recent ones both involve Gamrot. I thought his fights vs Tsarukyan and Dariush were both very high level and super competitive.
