I'm really surprised by the number of great and non-UFC fights mentioned. Glad to know there are a lot of knowledgeable fans out there.

I'm going to add Gomi vs. Kawajiri to the list because it's a personal favorite. All the elements of a great fight.

If you want to watch these fights or any others check out OVGuide. They have a whole section devoted to MMA (under the sports category). There are a ton of sites showing old fights and new fights for free so I'm sure you can find whatever you want there. Enjoy.
