2009 MMA Fights of the Year
2009 was an awesome year of fights.
-
1
- Couture vs. Nogueira
- Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira | Decision
- 2009 | UFC 102
-
One of my all time favorite fights. Nogueira and Couture put it all on the line and went to war.
-
2
- Henderson vs. Bisping
- Dan Henderson | KO/TKO | Round 2
- 2009 | UFC 100

One of my favorite fights because of how it ended. Hendo ko'd Bisping, after all Bisping's trash talk, with a brutal right hand.
-
3
- Cerrone vs. Henderson I
- Benson Henderson | Decision
- 2009 | WEC 43
-
Awesome fight, Henderson and Cerrone were very competitive throughout, constant submission attempts from Cerrone, and nasty ground and pound from Bendo, all in all great fight.
-
4
- Guida vs. Sanchez
- Diego Sanchez | Decision
- 2009 | The Ultimate Fighter 9 Finale
-
Back and forth, total war. The first round started as one of the biggest beatings I've ever seen in a fight, then Guida turned it around, and made it a competitive fight throughout.
-
5
- Torres vs. Mizugaki
- Miguel Torres | Decision
- 2009 | WEC 40

Akiyama and Belcher put on one of the most competitive brawls in UFC history, great way to open up UFC 100.

Very good, close fight. Really made me a fan of Condit.

Anderson Silva made Forrest Griffin look like he had been fighting for only a week. Silva landed some of the most precise counters I've ever seen.
