Talk about some of your favorite fights that most people probably don't even remember, or may have never seen. A recent UFC title fight would NOT be a good one to offer up!  Needs to be at least a little bit obscure.

My first one:  Takanori Gomi vs Luiz Azeredo (the first one)

Pure excitement, looked like Gomi was in trouble, and then what sweet knockout!!

Anything Melvin is involved in is a brawl!  I love all his fights, win or lose.  Hell Boy's fights are usually great.  He reminds me of a small Chris Lytle.

Cashbrewyn stole my answer! Guida vs Griffin is one of my favorite fights ever. I thought Clay won the fight, but it wasn't a robbery by any means.

Chuck Liddell vs Amar Suloev  is another one I loved for some reason.

Frausto didn't beat Fujii. That was one of the all-time worst decisions I've ever seen. 
And I think someone already mentioned this, but Manhoef vs. Cyborg is my second favorite all time fight, and most people haven't even seen it. (Unless it's been changed, it can't be added to the top fights of all time yet, which sucks)

Another fight that I loved was Wanderlei Silva vs Hidehiko Yoshida at PRIDE Final Conflict 2003.  Back and forth battle.

Cowboy vs. McCullough was an absolute war.

Varner vs. McCullough while we're on the topic of WEC's.  Gigantic finishing sequence in that one.
