    I can't possibly include all of your favourites in the poll... please make suggestions for fights I haven't included if you don't see the winner on the list. I tried to avoid fights that were blowouts (St. Pierre/Penn 2, Penn/Sanchez, etc.)

    I voted Quarry vs Credeur. Not a big name fight but man those two guys were just brawling like there was no tomorrow and it was suspenseful too with both guys gettin rocked multiple times.

    ^ Fantastic fight, no doubt, but there was no drama involved.

    Couture vs. Nogueira had it all--a long awaited fight, two superstars, back-and-forth action, near falls, submission attempts... it was a bit more one-sided than I would've liked but still a great watch. FOTY for the UFC for me.

    I went with Franklin vs Silva, Wand abondoning being a patient striker and going for it in the 3rd round did it for me.

    That qualifies as murder of the year.

    I may have to watch Nog-Randy again because I don't remember it as being an above average fight.
