Moment and highlight are different things (but something can be both). Silva subbing Chael after getting beat up for 5 rounds was a moment but not necessarily a highlight. DJ’s suplex armbar was a highlight but not necessarily a moment. Holm’s KO of Rousey was both. My top moments: Werdum catching Fedor (biggest holy shit moment I recall) Couture dropping Sylvia early in their fight (remember, he was expected to get destroyed) Strickland doing the same to Izzy And I always love the moment when someone unexpected FINALLY wins the title (Lawler, Glover, Oliveira, etc.) ---

Late 1980s: I was with a group training/partying in Brazil and we met some locals that invited us to their gym. The next day a couple of us went and rolled with them. We got manhandled, but went back the rest of the week to train. I had never heard of jujitsu and it was eye opening. I told people in the states about the Gracie family but most didn’t believe us. Then in 1993 UFC came to the USA. I made a killing betting on Royce. So, the most impactful fight to me was Kimo vs Royce as no one had been able to do anything to Royce at that time. I watched it live and haven’t seen it since so I am sure my memory is off. But as someone who was in the fight business when the UFC started that had the most impact/validation. OP @sean - Good topic and thanks for the trip down memory lane. RIP to the group I was traveling with back then. Call an old friend or family members and tell them you love them. Life changes quickly. ![IMG_3446](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex003/uploads/og/original/3X/9/d/9d28408961310d34db6ea7a733e9da0d5a5a7e00.jpeg) ![IMG_3444](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex003/uploads/og/original/3X/a/5/a501193bc6751d90ba21e7022856f0d32534c539.jpeg) ---

I would say Fedor vs Arlovski. Fedor’s popularity state side and with the casuals hit in all time high this fight. I remember getting my bro and others into Fedor prior to the Sylvia fight. Seeing a bunch of WWE guys and Zab Judah etc at that fight was a start of his popularity. A lot of casuals I knew tuned in for the Arlovski fight and my bro had a house party… I remember a few seconds before the KO he turned to me and said it’s not looking good lol. ---
