I just went through and updated mine. Curious what other people have got and if there's an argument for changing up my top 10.

I really need to see the Herman/JOE fight...I think Carwin/JDS will just miss my top 10...Kenny/Nunes could just break into the top 10 thought that was a great fight

You havent seen the Einemo vs Herman fight?? ...Really Carwin vs Dos Santos misses the top 10? :O .. Why is Silva vs Belfort there ? No offence but that was just nothing until that kick ?... Stephens vs Downes was a war whos putting that up there?

Silva/Belfort had the hype leading to the fight and didn't disappoint...Plus there was a couple exchanges in there that were awesome...I had a game last night so I didn't get to catch the fights live only saw the last 3 fights on the replay when I got home...JDS/Carwin is gonna be somewhere probably 9-12 or so...I enjoyed Stephens/Downes...Downes showed a lot of heart, but wasn't ready for someone Stephens caliber yet

@Soccerkick... There was only like one exchange beside that kick ? Usually your right but I have to disagree there man... Ha.. Aw lousy Einemo/Herman is defo worth the watch what a war.... I might have Dos Santos vs Carwin a bit high up... I picked Carwin by 1st round knockout but from the minute i saw the staredown i knew JDS was gonna win....

I thought JDS was gonna win, but let them hometown bias get in the way of my pick! Ariel Helwani said the oddsmakers already have JDS as the favorite against Cain...I'm so excited for that fight already!

I don't really like putting such short fights into FoTY. It made it into my KoTY and All time KO lists though. Lentz/Oliveira got in here, the fact that it was Lentz getting tooled made it all the more sweet.

Yeah I know I may actually move Barry-Kongo and Diaz-Daley down because of how short but still holy **** fights!

I have Diaz vs Daley higher than Barry vs Kongo because the whole Diaz fight had me standing up all the way from beginning till end. The Kongo fight just shocked everyone with the sudden ending. It was just a flash KO. A great comeback nonetheless. Great comebacks are great endings but not necessarily great fights. I have Whitson/Demarce and Bronzoulis/Lopes on here cuz they were both wars that had me on the edge of my seat. I guess this proves that minor events can have awesome fights too.

Mine don't really match up with what has been said so far.  I see that Kampmann Sanchez has been in most people's top ten...I didn't really like that fight because I was so mad at Kampmann the whole fight

I could probably sit here for hours and keep moving fights around as I think about them.  This is what I've got currently, though.

Healy Beerbohm was amazing. 
I need to change a few things, Kim/Diaz needs to go down a bit, as well as Souza/Lawler.
