    How could Rich Franklin’s facial rearrangement at the hands of Anderson Silva not make this list?

  7. fisherman on March 27th, 2008 7:40 pm

    Nice article.

    I think the cut sustained by Kalib Starnes against Alan Belcher probably deserves a mention as well.

    Corny list. Franklin’s nose realighnment was top 3. He got mauled by Anderson as many others have already said.

    round arm bar

    Hate to break it to you Match 360 but it was actually Antonio Rodrigo Noguera who cut Fedor. It was In Their Second Match at Pride, It was an acidental headbutt on the ground. The match was declared a no contest.

    you exceeded your photobucket bandwidth. Thank you stumbleupon!

  29. Rocco on February 4th, 2009 10:46 pm

    For a fight that lasted barely over a minute, i would say this one makes a good candidate, Pat Smith Vs. Scott Morris (old skool bare knuckle).
