What MMA fight gets the Mazzagatti of the Year?
(Which fight was stopped way too early, or way too late?)

Post pics and videos and lets hear the reasons for your picks!

MMA KO/Stoppage of the Year - Edgar-Maynard 3 due to the absolute thrashing Edgar took from Gray in the first round even worse than their second match. To come back and knock him out was sensational.

MMA Submission of the Year - Korean Zombie's Twister on Leonard Garcia. This is not because it's a 10th Planet forum either, that's the first one in the UFC and he pulled it off with almost no time left. Very impressive.

MMA Fight of the Year - Hendo vs. Shogun. Is there really any other candidate?

Grappling/Jiu-Jitsu Submission of the Year - I'd have to go with either Glover's guillotine on Robson Moura, or Marcelo's triangle of Leo Viera. If it's Glover, it's because it was so unexpected. If it's Marcelo, though it was probably a little unexpected to see him triangle someone, especially Viera, it's more-so the flawless way he set it up.

Grappling/Jiu-Jitsu Match of the Year - Braulio Estima vs. Jacare. Sensational match between two of the best in the game, and even though Jacare was coming off a tough loss in Strikeforce he showed tremendous heart in the face of Braulio's relentless gameplan that he executed flawlessly.

the front kicks to the face get the knock outs
Mir breaking Nogs arm for mma sub
shogun henderson was a war and i would give it fight of the year
and i didn't watch enough grappling to pick a winner

Chandler vs Alvarez for FOTY

MMA KO/Stoppage of the Year:



Silva:
Straight out of a 90's martial arts flick. Clean and deadly.


MMA Submisison of the Year:


The Korean Zombie I don't think this needs to be explained


Heres me teaching the Zombie how to throw up the 10th Planet Gang Sign!

MMA Fight of the Year:

Hendo Vs Shogun I'm and old Pride head, and I felt it again for 25mins with this fight.



Grappling/Jiu Jitsu Submission of the Year:

Gunna keep this one local and I'm torn between them.

Scott's easy dismantling of a local BJJ Brown belt Instructor and Pro MMA fighter, who was much larger than Scott:
Starts at the 1:27 mark


The other is Bryan Alves, one of the twin brothers that are tearing up the local scene here. I believe he was the first person to put someone to sleep with the Japanese Necktie in the 10th Planet affiliation, while in competition.

Agree!

Korean Zombie got the "Bassie" award for it too didn't he?

For me has to be Vinny Magalhaes vs Fabrico Werdum and what he does for 10th Planet

Vinny showed tons of heart fighting off the armbar and used Rubber Guard effectively to win against one of the best guys in the world.
