What fight that left you so shocked that couldn’t get over it

Agreed on Olives v. Makhachev, same for Korean Zombie v. Ortega.

I was just floored by Adesanya vs. Strickland. I'm not a big fan of Izzy, but I thought he would have a field day with Strickland, that he'd be one of the easiest matchups in the top 10 for him, and the result was so... not that. I wasn't sad or depressed or anything, just astounded.
 
Aldo vs Mcgregor, its not just that he won, i was rooting for Aldo but whatever, 13 seconds...13 seconds of a fight for the biggest FW fight in history.

Honorable mention: Masvidal vs Askren, same, 5 seconds for a fight that had been building up for a while, again, i had no hopes for Masvidal if Askren could get his hand on him, he didnt even got a chance, lol.
 
Oliveira vs Makhachev had me straight up depressed for awhile.

Jones vs Reyes had me wanting to curse out the judges.

Oliveira beating Poirier had me on cloud 9 for like a month

What were some of yours?

Olives vs Chandler - was so pumped the way he finished Chandler

Max vs Volk 2 - could not believe he didn’t get the decision. I’m over ut now, I think lol
 
Pat Smith vs. Scott Morris

no fight has shocked me since then
 
I couldn’t get over Rockhold rubbing blood on Costa like the cocaine bear meme. That’s the hardest I’ve ever laughed at a fight and I thought about it for weeks afterwards. Same night as the Leon high kick.

This isn’t even about the fight but I had 500 on Carla Esparza and Yan Xiaonan going to a decision because neither fighter ever, ever does anything other than that. So when Carla TKO’d her I was inconsolable, lol.

Dustin violently sparking out McGregor had me on cloud nine.
 
Mark Kerr vs. Moti Hortenstein. I really thought a 195-pound kickboxer would take a 280-pound roided beast of a former D1 wrestler. Especially since this was like 5 years after UFC 1 and we'd already seen fights like this before.

More seriously, there are the obvious "Anyone can get caught, even if they would normally win 9 out of 10 (or 99 out of 100) times" fights
  • GSP vs. Serra #1
  • Prime Bader vs. an old/washed Tito
  • Pettis vs. Wonderboy
 
I was in a house full of drunk dudes talking big shit about Cro Cop, when he got floored I never saw so many drunk depressed people in my life. One guy literally threw up after it happens. I mean, I think it was just good timing, but man was it funny

Yea that was a rough night for us Pride fanboys here on the dog.
 
A.Silva vs Sonnen 1. I was at a bar with my future wife watching with nothing but Chael fans around. They were signing and laughing about how shitty the Spider was and how it was like Christmas watching the beating he was taking. I was borderline depressed.
Then Silva slapped on the triangle in the last round and forced the tap. I was amazed and left the bar on a high that has not since been duplicated.
So many Sonnen fans were acting so obnoxious that night too. When Silva got that triangle I got so pumped I nearly fell off the stool I was sitting on
 
Still mad about the Paddy vs Gordon robbery, still shocked by the Leon-Usman kick, still shocked by Strickland-Izzy, still pissed at Gane for doing soooo terribly against Jones
I really thought Gane would give Jones trouble on the feet but I was worried his lack of wrestling defense would be an issue and it became very obvious it was going to be an issue. I was so sick because I knew the Jones fans would be so obnoxious after it too
 
I think there is still much salt about Weidman beating Silva twice
I wish Silva wasn’t clowning the entire first fight I still think he would have won that night. That leg break was even worst. I was so mad at Weidman for celebrating that 2nd win I still am lol
 
So many Sonnen fans were acting so obnoxious that night too. When Silva got that triangle I got so pumped I nearly fell off the stool I was sitting on
The guys sitting next to us said, “it’s like Christmas watching him get his ass beat like this!”
Once Chael tapped, I slammed their table and said, “that’s how the Grinch stole Christmas, Bitch!” 😂
We almost fought and after a little shoving match, got escorted out. I lost my voice from screaming out of excitement!
