Very interesting list I was thrown off here.

These were all fights he would have seen as a regular fan.

Not any Bellator fight he would have been commentating and Iā€™m surprised.

I for sure thought Jared Hess vs Hector Lombard for the inaugural Bellator MW title would have been on the list.

So he does mention Wand and Cro Cop hereā€¦

He mentions how Silva was never the same after this beating and headkick KO but failed to mention that even Silva wife admitted that after this fight Wand was never the same.

Cain vs JDS is what i came here to say.

Love both fighters and seeing JDS get beat like that for so long was rough.

The guy was unreal in those first few fights in the UFC; truly a terrifying knockout artist.

I would say Joe Warren vs Pat Curran.
But, Warren won like 5 or 6 in a row after.
Iā€™m surprised Warren even remembered his own name after that beatdown.

Iā€™ll never forget that fight.

YELLING at the TV at that short stocky ref whatā€™s his name?

He just watched as Joe got decimated.

Those were the days tho.

Scott Smith - Cung Le 1 deserves a mentionā€¦

ā€œMiracle in San Joseā€

ā€œThe Comeback Kidā€ Scott Smith got it done but did the undefeated Sanshou world champion Cung Le absolutely batter him before defeat.

Wow.

These days 10 times out of 10 that fight gets stopped unlike it did for Scott Smith. . . Tho he got the victory.

Insane shots he took.

Renan Barao seemed like a completely different fighter after Dillashaw beat him for the title.

Same with Miguel Torres and Brian Bowles.
