    you can vote for the top 100 ufc fights of all time on the spike tv website at the moment, so far what I have seen of the selection would not have been fights that had been on my radar,
    anyway if there is a fight we all agree on maybe we try and rock the vote ?

    So limiting yourself to the spike selection give us your top 3 fights
    and if u want your top three not in the selection

    It really bothers me that fights likt Frank Shamrock vs Tito are missing. I know why they arent there, but it still bothers me

    Agreed. That would have been my number two.

    I’m with you here. I know it is some what a fanboyish thing to say but it is particularly disgusting given what these guys went through in their fights and training.

    The list of "missing" UFC fights that Dave Meltzer mentioned while ago:
    Roger Huerta vs. Leonard Garcia
    Frank Shamrock vs.Tito Ortiz
    Maurice Smith vs. Mark Coleman
    The Tank Abbott vs. Oleg Taktarov fights.
    Don Frye vs. Amoury Bitetti
    Don Frye vs. Mark Coleman


    Fighters they eliminated all traces of Maurice Smith, Frank Shamrock, Matt Lindland (the Baroni fight was great), Dan Severn (who never had great fights but his fight with Anthony Macias was a huge deal at the time and should have made a list of the best 177) and Bas Rutten (who had a great fight with Tsuyoshi Kosaka). They also didn’t have a great Liddell vs. Vitor Belfort match because it was on what was called UFC 37.5 (a late added show for an FSN TV taping between 37 and 38).

    Of the 177 fights, 170 of them were from UFC 29 on (right before Zuffa took over),

    Possibly my favourite UFC fight of all of them. Sad really that ego's can cause an air brushing of the companies history.
