Chris Leben submits Akiyamo, after beating Aaron Simpson 14 days prior to ufc 116, during the Ultimate Fighter Finale. Leben was at one point unconscious on his feet, before snapping out of it, to pummel Akiyama. He eventually triangled Akiytama in the closing seconds of round 3 in what will most likely be remembered as the best fight Mike has ever seen.
The Stephan Bonnar fight. Every time Bonnar fights, it's like watching the guy from "The Pursuit of Happiness" search for a job.
Lesnar v Carwin. Wow. Best heavyweight fight in...maybe ever. I'm a converted Lesnar fan. For the first time in his career, we saw Lesnar out-powered, as Carwin dominated Lesnar in the first round. It looked as if the ref was going to stop the fight in the first round as Carwin sat on top of Lesnar and landed hard punch after hard punch to the skull. But Lesnar took the beating, regrouped between rounds, and came out smiling in the second. He took Carwin to the ground, mounted him, and just as it appeared it was going to be Lesnar hammer fist to the face time, Lesnar sunk in an arm triangle choke, jumped into side control and submitted Carwin. It was incredible.
