Things you didn't believe that could happen

[Xoleth]

For example, watching Sean Strickland fights, I wouldn't have thought that, after the Cannonier or Imavov fights, he could get, 3 times in a row, Performance of the Night, Performance of the Night, Fight of the Night.

Or, Jan Blachowicz, in his UFC beginnings, losing to Cummins and being 1-4... I wouldn't have guessed he could become a defending champion... or even a top 3 fighter actually.

You?

 

[SeattleFightFan]

1. A Diaz throwing in the towel. And I don't mean this guy....



2. Jacare getting subbed. And he ended his MMA career with the same injury that ended his BJJ career

That Animal Farm and 1984 would no longer be fiction.

 

[Rob-G]

Pride FC going under. I still miss it so much!

The Fedor / Nogueira / Cro Cop era my favorite era in MMA history!

 

[jeskola]

Amir Sadollah doing all he did
Amir Sadollah disappearing
and anything else related to Amir Sadollah

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Strickland beating Izzy definitely ranks up there in recent history.

I thought Adesanya would clown him at range.

 

[jeff7b9]

Chris Weidman snapping his leg exactly the same way he snapped Andersons leg.

 

[don't ask]

Igor beating Telligman.

The other Igor beating Sperry.

Dana's entire career.

Fedor doing to Nog what he did to Nog.

Conor's success.

Jones' entire career.

Francis' boxing match.

Rogan's success.

Overeem failing to get a UFC belt.

I've been a Charles and Sean fan since they debuted and I never thought for a second either of them would ever become champion

Both guys were in the ufc at a young age so I knew it was possible in their prime

We all know you voted for Hillary... Twice!!

 

[ipowerslapmywife]

I didn’t think Tony would go on a losing streak after winning 12 straight

 

[ipowerslapmywife]

Dana slapping the shit out of his wife in public

 

[Rationality]

Dana throwing Anderson Silva under the bus.

Curious SA, why, or how, would you come to that conclusion?

 

[VinceArch]

Never thought someone with as much physical talent as Jon Jones would end up becoming the fuck up he is but here we are.

 

[Chubi]

Jones fighting at HW. I honestly thought he'd be in jail before coming back.

 

[Skarsgard]

1. A Diaz throwing in the towel. And I don't mean this guy....



2. Jacare getting subbed. And he ended his MMA career with the same injury that ended his BJJ career

It was particularly bad because it wasn't even fully locked in. He just had enough of a hold to snap it.

Fedor beating Nog in their first fight. I was on the verge of tears.

We have more of A Brave New World going on blended in there.
