As much as i love some old pride fights like Wandy and Rampage or older ufc fights the best for me was Silva vs Sonnen 1
no one thought that would happen........and no one thought it would end like that so close to it almost being over

Nah, Sonnen's T-levels were through the roof; with you on the ending though, cheating f---er got his.
I loved Rampage/Randleman, Condit/Ellenberger, Velasquez/Lesnar, War Machine/Rollins(yup.), Diaz/Daley and any time Edgar and Maynard clash!

That War Machine vs. Rollins fight is definitely up there for me, as well. That fight was insane, and often gets overlooked or just forgotten.
I'd also like to add Diaz vs. Parisyan to my list.

Zombie vs Garcia was by far my favorite until Shogun vs Hendo no its kind of a tie. Also loved Bonnar v Forest 1, Diego v Kampmann, Nick vs Gomi, Edgar v Maynard 2 and 3, Cowboy vs Bendo 1

That Karo fight was incredible with the judo throws, and wrestling. Then Diego kneed him in the mouth and Karo's tooth went flying arcross the ring. Unreal.

Hands down
Eddie Alvarez vs Michael Chandler
The heart in that fight, but yet it was still technical. Not sloppy brawling like garcia vs zombie.

Their first fight was awesome, but you have to give a special mention to Jorge Santiago vs. Kazuo Misaki II.

Henderson/Cerrone 1 deserves an honorable mention.

First that come to my mind:
All around great fights (technically):
Mighty Mouse vs Brad Pickett
Big Nog vs Randy Couture
Hendo vs Shogun
Cerrone vs Bendo I
Lauzon vs Varner
1-sided:
Nam Phan vs Jimy Hettes
GSP vs Jon Fitch
Rory MacDonald vs Nate Diaz
Nate Diaz vs Cerrone (even if Cerrone's leg kicks were very efficient)
1-rounders:
Nick Diaz vs Paul Daley
Kongo vs Pat Barry
Sass vs Wiman
Palhares vs Belcher
Mir vs Lesnar I
Mir vs Big Nog II
1-sided:
A Silva vs F Griffin

Some that have been frequently overlooked, at least from the UFC, would be Tito v. Frank Shamrock, Ruas v. Varelans, Bas v. TK, Thomson v. Yves Edwards, Oleg v. Tank.

If he wants to watch older fights he can find about a hundred of better ones to watch from Pride alone than anything Matt Hughes was in.

Most of mine were already mentioned
Nick Diaz v Diego Sanchez always comes to mind when thinking back of good fights
Shogun v Machida 1 even tho I didn't agree with the result
Nick Diaz v Gomi, back and forth and Diaz getting the submission victory via gogoplata

Cerrone vs McCollough always gets criminally overlooked.
Not mma but an awesome fight.
Nagashima vs Kikuno
