No.9: Paul Craig vs. Magomed Ankalaev
Almost certainly three rounds down on the scorecards and trapped underneath his opponent in the dying seconds of the fight, a lesser man might have just covered up and waited for the final bell to sound, but not Paul Craig.
The Scottish fighter had come off second best against Magomed Ankalaev for much of the bout, but his will to win was still as strong as ever.
As such, when Ankalaev postured up looking for a final few ground and pound blows, Craig reacted with lightning quick reflexes to seize the brief moment of opportunity presented to him, throwing up his legs and clamping down on a triangle choke.
It was so tight that with just one second of the fight remaining Ankalaev was forced to tap out, handing Craig one of the best last-gasp, come-from-behind victories in recent memory.
