Gotta go GoGo, but Griffin tapping out Shogun is close b/c of the importance.

That Diaz vs. Gomi fight was just crazy. One of the best fights of the year imo. Beautiful transition to the gogoplata. War Machine vs. J Roc was an interesting bout as well, but that's off topic.

Gogoplata difficulty = overrated in my opinion. Gogoplata's are only difficult if you're not very flexible. Someone like Nick Diaz winning by one isn't as spectacular as some make it out to be. It's really not much different than if Nick would've won by triangle.. That's why I voted for Babalu's submission, because that hold was sick, especially since he didn't even let go right away.

I went with GSP over Hughes just because he did exactly what Hughes did to him in the first fight.

Diaz/Gomi. No doubt in my mind. What a fight and what a win. Diaz should at least get this since he doesn't technically have the win.....
