At training a couple of weeks ago a 170lb white belt flying arm bared a 220lb black belt. So I think something that doesn't require to many steps like a flying arm bar.

Tito vs Bader

Mir vs Traven

Yeah and Jim has been a black belt for a long time and I think Oliveira was only a brown at the time. Phone Post 3.0

Definitely this too Phone Post 3.0

Don Frye's heel hook of Mark Hall in Ultimate Ultimate II.

Not bad, since in his entire career he's only won by submission twice.

ShakaSway - Anderson tapping out Lutter. Goldberg was shocked Phone Post 3.0

Well Lutter is the Michael Jordan of BJJ after all.

hahaha. He did lock it up quickly, but the most surprising thing was that Chael wasn't forced to tap in an earlier round. With so many exceptional talents to keep sharp, the man just didn't have time to practice defending submissions.

OK, it's well known that Frye-Hall was a work, but the FUCKING ANSWER is Wallid Ismail choking out Royce Gracie in December of '98. The entire BJJ community was utterly gob smacked over that one.

Kevin Burns submitting Roan Carneiro was a surprise at the time. Also, both Mir and Werdum subbing Big Nog.

Took a long time for someone to say the right answer Phone Post 3.0

Chael Shogun was areal shocker to me.

Found Pettis Bendo pretty surprising too, thought Petis might get a TKO or something but did not see a sub coming Phone Post 3.0

Hughes vs Almeida

Jones making shogun tap was shocking, but not as bad at Serra making GSP cry uncle. That was just unreal .
