@Guajiro-b2k bro, this was an AMAZING fight, and a beautiful display of both skills and heart. "Coolest grappling of all time" it's an insult to a lot of MMA fights, let's not even mention Wrestling, JJ, BJJ, and even Judo fights. Considering the guy was talking just about the UFC, he is completely ignoring guys like Maia, Fitch, Lauzon, etc. Take a recent example: Tsarukian vs Gamrot. That one was a grappling chess match with some amazing moves from both guys.
