Completely subjective list with "Wars" being left out. Simply whatever is emotionally the closest to me.
-
1
- Bisping vs. St-Pierre
- Georges St-Pierre | Submission | Round 3
- 2017 | UFC 217
-
The GOAT is back. One more belt. Just one more time.
-
2
- Usman vs. Covington II
- Kamaru Usman | Decision
- 2021 | UFC 268
-
Like the first bout, yet this time they closed it off and shook hands. A nice ending to a rivalry.
-
3
- Usman vs. Covington
- Kamaru Usman | KO/TKO | Round 5
- 2019 | UFC 245
-
As close as it gets. As high level as it gets. Level of anger towards each other is unreal. Perfection.
-
4
- Lewis vs. Gane
- Ciryl Gane | KO/TKO | Round 3
- 2021 | UFC 265
-
Technical, skilled man dismantling a one-punch KO artist is the best thing to possibly happen to HW division. Future may very well have become the present with that win.
-
5
- St-Pierre vs. Condit
- Georges St-Pierre | Decision
- 2012 | UFC 154
-
There's no quit in Condit. A war of a GOAT and the very best contender.
-
6
- Jones vs. Machida
- Jon Jones | Submission | Round 2
- 2011 | UFC 140
-
Coldly dropped an unconscious Machida to the floor. A talent surpassing another.
-
7
- Nurmagomedov vs. Barboza
- Khabib Nurmagomedov | Decision
- 2017 | UFC 219
-
Yes. An elite striker beaten up effortlessly like a child for 15 minutes straight by a guy who knows how to truly wrestle.
-
8
- Shevchenko vs. Andrade
- Valentina Shevchenko | KO/TKO | RD 2
- 2021 | UFC 261
-
Proving a point by completely dominating an already great grappler with grappling alone. A title defence and a big statement of the champ.
-
9
- Rua vs. Jones
- Jon Jones | KO/TKO | Round 3
- 2011 | UFC 128
-
Mmmm pretty impressive fight by this young guy. I wonder what he'll accomplish.
-
10
- St-Pierre vs. Penn II
- Georges St-Pierre | KO/TKO | Round 4
- 2009 | UFC 94

Shutting down the question of who's the world's best for good at the time.
