I am going to have toi disagree with everyone saying Cro Cop had heart in his fight. It seemed to me that about midpoint through round two, after he had given Fedor two head kicks that Fedor just shrugged off, that you could actually see his facial expression change from "Take this, motherfucker" to "Oh shit, what do i do now?"
It seemed to me that he just lost the will to fight and did just enough to make it go to the judges. Round three was absolutely ridiculous. Cro Cop just basically ran from Fedor the whole round.
I choose the Fujita fight because it showed that Fedor has an automatic mode that is awesome. He got rocked, did the funny fish dance, and immediately clinched. That he pulled off a RNC less than 90 seconds later is amazing. If you watch the DVD, when he accepts his trophy he is still wobbly.
The Randleman fight is a close second for me.
