-
1
- Garcia vs. Jung II
- Chan Sung Jung | Submission | Round 2

Another Bellator inverted triangle. I couldn't believe it.
-
3
- Garza vs. Jabouin
- Pablo Garza | Submission | Round 1
- 2011 | UFC 129
-
Damn. I like Jabouin a lot, so I hated to see him get caught like this, especially in a fight he was constrolling as well as he was. But it was a flying triangle, which is pretty damn cool.
-
4

Awesome knee bar, which Rhadi pulled off after getting dropped.

Slick guillotine by High, which should get him a spot back in the UFC.
-
6

Great RNC by Edwards, which he secured just minutes after being threatened by an RNC from McKenzie.

-
10
- Johnson vs. Guymon
- DaMarques Johnson | Submission | Round 1
- 2011 | UFC Fight Night 23

Strange submission from Johnson, I was sad to see Guymon lose the way he did, but Johnson won points for creativity, although I don't know if he did it on purpose.
-
11
- Souza vs. Lawler

Great RNC to top off an awesome fight. Jacare put on a clinic on the ground.
