Should have been two Sub winners tbh.
HONORABLE MENTION: (And more impressive victory imo)
GSP over Jon Fitch at ManMMA 64 via D'Arce Gator Roll. Both that and flying heel hook have never been seen in all of Era 1 or 2 of ManMMA.

Both that and flying heel hook have never been seen in all of Era 1 or 2 of ManMMA. This was a GREAT submission, and a very worthy honourable mention. I reviewed both submissions many times, and ultimately decided a flying heel hook was a level above d'arce gator roll (which is still elite, but when compared with a flying heel hook, it sounds a little more impressive than it is).
