Pretty crazy, I must have been hanging on Shogun’s nuts for dear life, and bullshit it wasn’t an upset. Mauricio Rua was the king of 205.
I disagree. He lost to Machida (arguably) and Griffin before. He beat Chuck and Coleman who were already on their way out. Jones was the hot big thing at 205 at the time and I expected him to walk through Shogun as well. His size advantage was enormous.
- Serra vs GSP was a huge upset, but I couldn't appreciate it at the time as I just started watching.
- Griffin vs Jackson was a surprise.
- Bisping vs Rockhold is still one of my favourite KOs of all time and I never saw this coming.
- McGregor vs Aldo was crazy.
- So was McGregor vs Alvarez actually.
- I didn't see Pena vs Nunes coming, but that turned out to be a fluke.
- I wasn't too suprised by Edwards vs Usman, even put some money on Edwards, because Usman's stand up is quite sloppy. Still, I jumped out of my seat for this one.
- Nunes vs Cyborg was a big one.
- Both Rose's title wins were amazing too.
It's a great sport as long as these things keep happening once in a while.
