In the second defense of his featherweight strap, Alexander Volkanovski had his hands full with the ultra-tough and wiley Brian Ortega. Volk miraculously survived multiple submission attempts before taking it to Ortega and scoring a decisive decision victory in a thrilling Fight of the Night effort.

A sensation in PRIDE and a champion through and through, Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira added a UFC interim heavyweight belt to his collection with a guillotine of former champ Tim Sylvia at UFC 81.

You can never count Brian Ortega out. After struggling to break through Volkanovski’s defenses for much of their encounter, Ortega snatched a nasty guillotine choke that turned the champ’s head bright red before he managed a stunning escape. It was a valiant effort from the challenger, even in defeat.

When Colby Covington took a unanimous decision over UFC BMF Jorge Masvidal in 2022, there was more than bragging rights on the line. This rivalry lived on even after the fight and continues to this day.

To watch Demetrious Johnson during his record-breaking UFC flyweight title reign was to witness one of the sport&#39;s best push the limits of his greatness fight after fight. In the sixth defense of his belt, he’d snatch the arm of Kyoji Horiguchi with one second left in their bout.

Most assumed Derrick Lewis would get smothered by the dominant wrestling of Curtis “Razor” Blaydes. However, for the first six minutes of their bout, a mild-mannered kickboxing match took place — until Blaydes changed levels and met a vicious Lewis uppercut that sent him to the canvas cold.

A blistering six-fight win streak in the UFC’s light heavyweight division was Dominick Reyes’ ticket to standing across the Octagon from divisional GOAT Jon Jones. Reyes proved himself worthy, losing a close decision in a gritty, back-and-forth affair many thought he won.

If you’re going to shoot on Edson Barboza, you had best be careful. Beneil Dariush found out the hard way when a telegraphed takedown attempt was intercepted by a brutal Barboza jumping knee that sent him crashing to the canvas for the KO finish.

There may be legendary Polish power in his fists, but in the first defence of his light heavyweight title, it was Jan Błachowicz’s powerful takedowns and top game that solidified a victory over then-unbeaten middleweight champion Israel Adesanya.

The millennium had just turned when Tito Ortiz turned in a dominant decision victory over Wanderlei Silva to win his first title and start his reign at the top of what was then called the UFC middleweight division.

When Vitor “The Phenom” Belfort stepped into the UFC Octagon for the first time in 1997, he was just 19 years old with no known weaknesses. He’d deliver on the hype, dispatching Tra Telligman and Scott Ferrozzo in two minutes flat to claim the heavyweight tournament crown.
