Mine is definitely Sakuraba vs. Smirnovas, shit was unreal.

 

[Medical Marijuana Man]

Nogueira vs Crocop

Best comeback and interim title Fight

Best comeback and interim title Fight

Loved that fight, it's quite underrated around here.

 

[TheRuthlessOne]

Mir vs Big Nog 2
Hughes vs Trigg 2

 

[Akabignasty]

Loved that fight, it's quite underrated around here.

Agreed

A few others that didn't make the list:

Scott Smith vs. Cung Le I
John Howard vs. Dennis Hallman
Wilson Gouveia vs. Jason Lambert
Roger Huerta vs. Clay Guida
Uriah Hall vs. Gegard Mousasi

 

[PorkPiePusher]

A lot of great fights on the list, but only one had me jumping multiple times to my feet and sitting down within the span of just a few seconds - Congo/Barry

Also my 10 y.o. self giggled at "come + from behind + finish"

 

[Summoning]

I'm a simple MMA fan, I see Sakuraba I press like

 

[IMSAYIN]

Sell vs Smith was completely OVER. The funniest, and freakiest ending EVER in my opinion. I was all...

Fuck... That's gotta hurt. Moving in for the kill... BOOM. LOL... It doesn't get any crazier, or more unexpected than that. Name any other fight where the KO winner immediately crumpled to the mat ready to dieded.

A fight with a sub artist is never over. So, late subs are nothing. Even after being dominated for 14, or 24 minutes.

But, that Smith vs Sell shit, was wild.

 

[Gio]

The correct answer is Silva/Sonnen 1. It was movie-like.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

1. Brock Lesnar vs. Shane Carwin, mainly becaise I was at that event UFC 116, amazing night, been to 6 UFC shows and that was the best atmosphere ever

 

[chunglii]

Minotauro vs Bob Sapp, but I didn't see it live.

Kongo and Anderson might be tied for favorite comeback victory I saw live. The arena for Kongo-Barry went absolutely apeshit and I was flabbergasted.

 

[SavageAngel]

Really hard to vote, so many good options. I always thought Minotauro vs Crocop for the Pride interim belt was the best comeback, but I just can't get past the ideia that Anderson was getting pummeled for 5 rounds and he submitted chael with like 1 minute left, that has to be the greatest comeback ever.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Matt Brown vs Erick Silva. What a dog fight.

 

[daltonames]

What about lawler/manheof? ultimate one punch comeback.

You were watching too much porn at 10.

 

[tenniswhiz]

Why no Rockhold/Weidman?

Weidman was dominating the scorecards until the spinning kick.

 

[HUGHPHUG]

Mine is definitely Sakuraba vs. Smirnovas, shit was unreal.

Totally agree, I mean, Sakuraba died at least twice during that fight. It was horrific

I was very close to tears when he came back to win, to this day never screamed so loud during a fight

 

[KONE]

Mir/Nog 2

 

[Taric]

Nog/Sapp is the fight that got me into MMA.
