They're the touchdown dance of MMA.

After a brutal knockout or slick submission, many fighters have some type of unique way to celebrate their victory. For some, it may be a simple fist pump, while others may perform a backflip off the cage.

No matter how they go about doing it, post-fight celebrations are a great way for fighters to show their own personality inside the cage. Of course, some fighters simply have more personality than others, and those are the fighters you can expect to see in this list.

Here are the top 10 post-fight celebrations in MMA history.

10. Roy Nelson

9. Tank Abott

8. Rashad Evans

6T. Josh Barnett

6T. Thiago Silva

5. Ronaldo Souza

4. Chuck Liddell

3. Quinton Jackson

Quinton Jackson's trademark howl is downright goosebump-inducing. Before a fight, it simply means Jackson is about to walk out of the tunnel and toward the Octagon.

After a fight, it is the last thing Jackson's opponents want to see, since it would likely mean they are just regaining their senses from a temporary state of unconsciousness.

2. BJ Penn

Who ever said MMA fighters didn't have to be at least a little bit crazy?

Like a wild animal that just finished consuming its prey, B.J. Penn licks his opponent's blood off his own gloves.

It's part badass and part disgusting, but it's definitely one of the best celebrations in MMA.

1. Tito Ortiz

For years, Tito Ortiz dug the graves of many opponents as UFC light heavyweight champion.

However, a rough patch in his career meant that fans went nearly five years without seeing the most well-choreographed celebration in the sport.

<br />The omission of Coleman's epic celebration is unforgivable.

This author is clearly a post-TUF fan.

And I know he isn't a big name fighter but the capoeira guy who wins two fights by head kick and then puts on a capoeira demo of insane skill looking like some matrix shit! Phone Post

13

i also think BJ should be there twice, once for blood licking, second for running out of the cage (uno/hughes)

14

Really? No Mark Hunt we he KO'd Turschurer or how ever the eff you spell his name. He tagged him with a bomb and started walking away before Chris hit the mat. He just knew that no human could eat that large of a shit sandwich and survive. Phone Post

 One of my favorites is Murahama when he beat Brennan
