The 2018 Heavies Awards - Fight of the Year
What a year 2018 was for MMA fights! There have been some amazing fights this year and as always it's hard to pick just a few to vote on, but I've done my best to narrow them down into a decent list with the help of various sources. If I've missed any, let me know.. I also had more GIFs but the limits 20 per post, so I've had to remove a few.
Anyway, these are in no particular order.
Voting will be open for 5 days from the opening of this thread, so get your votes in before the 14th.
Thanks for voting!
