Most Insane UFC Comeback?

Phil Baroni vs. Amar S. (Can’t remember how to spell his last name)
 
Gsp taking off four years, coming back to a division above fighting there for the first time while unbeknownst to him, fighting a digestive problem and choking unconscious the reigning, defending mw champ. What a career comeback.
 
With the recent hype on sherdog I would say the most insane UFC comeback would be....

Conor vs Porier. Poirier landed a low kick and right hand early and Conor came back to KO him.

;)
 
Brock vs Carwin. Brock spent the ENTIRE fight in the crumpled fetus position with the ref hovering, and at the next round, landed a TD and choke.

Brock vs Mir. Mir was toast before the ref saved him with a standup. Note the same ref has tolerated quite a few strikes to the back of the head. Brock lands like two, and the ref stands them up. Mir gets a perfect sub from the bottom on a heel hook.

Askren vs Robbie - Robbie was seconds from the win. We all know it. Askren is tough as nails and absorbed some real punishment before his win. Impressive performance.

Sonnen vs Anderson - Sonnen dominated with GNP for 4 rounds and about 4 minutes, and under a minute to winning the strap, he's forced to tap.

GSP vs Hughes - GSP was cruising to win his first Welterweight Title and seconds before the big win, forced to tap.

Reem vs Bigfoot - Reem destroyed him entirely and piecemealed him the whole fight. Then, in the final round, he ate a big combination and got finished.

Holm vs Tate - Holm was cruising to a big win and turning Tate into hamburger when Tate got that TD and pulled off a major comeback to finish the woman who finished Holly.

Nunes vs De Randamie - Germaine had a very strong start, put Amanda in trouble fast, and pressed the button. Nunes survived the pressure (ala Brock vs Carwin) and came back for the win.

Honorary PRIDE! moment:
Bob Sapp vs Big Nog - Sapp almost won the biggest fight of his career before getting tapped.

Doesn't get mentioned much now but Boetsch barbarian tossing Okami was wild considering it was in Japan and Okami was dominating the first 2 rounds
