I love a quality submission Fedor-Werdum has a huge significance and Silva Sonnen was crazy so I think both deserve high rankings due to that.

Agree with diaz/gomi, shonan and I'd also put in the Diego Brandao one from the ultimate fighter finale weird choice I know but still was a complete momentum shift and the way he did it was beautiful

Anderson Silva vs Ryo Shonan :happy

 

Well, looks like all of the subs that initially came to mind are already mentioned except for one.

Sakuraba vs Galesic :good

Can't believe the referee didn't stop it. How many more clear head strikes would he have allowed if the tables hadn't been turned?

Great comeback after receiving so much punishment :good

 

The only reason I can up with for that fight not being stopped is that the ref realized Sakuraba was threatening with a submission the entire time. Almost the equivalent to a fighter occasionally firing a shot back in boxing, when being overwhelmed against the ropes.

There is a Sakuraba highlight out there that ends with this fight, and it brought tears to my eyes the first couple times I watched it.

 

Oh ****, I can't believe no one has mentioned this submission. I thought of it when I saw the thread, but could have sworn I saw it mentioned already. Maybe the Shogun/Randleman pic fooled me.

Sakuraba was hit with about a dozen unanswered, flush headshots from 1.14 to 1.26. I couldn't believe it wasn't stopped. Just my opinion :good
