Countless times i have seen an awesome sub get passed over for SotN in favor of an RNC (e.g., UFC 106, Sotoropolous armbar lost to Koscheck RNC) ... any idea how the submission of the night is chosen?
Also, not too happy about Lil Nog being picked for KotN over Saunders at 106, and some other instances.

I was more than happy with the KOTN going to Little Nog, it was a bigger fight, and a slick punch.
The bigger the fight, the better the knock out is. (This is what I think, but again the quality of the knockout has to be good.)
Same things go with subs I believe. (I would rather quality over bigger fights though)

I think the fight shouldn't have to do with the sub or KO, it should be the actual finish that is judged on. In my opinion, if there are two subs and one is an RNC, it should go to the other one. If there is a TKO and a KO, unless the TKO is by some sort of jumping-flying-hadoken ultra flashy doo-dad, the KO should get the bonus.
