UFC Fight of the Month Power Rankings: October
What makes for a great fight?
It’s much more complex than having two strikers go at it. There has to be a certain amount of tension that the fight emanates. The battle scars and aesthetic of a fighter going through war makes it all the better. If a fighter is unique in his own way, it just adds to the recipe for making a great fight.
With another week of fight in the books for the UFC, how do these fights stack
up against last weeks?
