Pressbox (Press Release) - The sport of Mixed Martial Arts has been known worldwide for a lot of great fights that transpired already. But with this, we will learn about the greatest fights ever in the heavyweight division of the sport at a closer and more in depth look on each.

The Fight Between Randy Couture and Tim Sylvia
Tim was the champion during this fight and he was also ranked to be one of the leading top ten players in the said division. He has had some good fortune for the past years in his career being drowned with a lot of winnings in MMA pound for pound fights. While on the other hand, Randy has just filed his retirement after being the first ever in the UFC universe to gain belts in two prestigious divisions. It was after a year when Randy decided to come back and he became the underdog with the competition with Tim. Everyone thought it was Tim who would take over the fight but it was Randy who dominated all the spots of the games. It just took one single sold punch to take Tim down after all the rest of the many takedowns.

The Interim Title Fight Between Antonio Rodrigo Minatauro Nogueira and Tim Sylvia
After having lost to Randy Couture, Tim left the UFC world to defeat the newcomer Brandon Vera and earn more winnings like over Frank Mir. When Randy left the organization as well, Tim came back to give another shot in reclaiming his belt. It was Minatauro whom he faced. Just when everybody thought that Tim would defeat Nog with a heavy blow that almost knocked him down, Nog was able to defeat Tim with a guillotine choke. It was Nog who turned out to be the first person who held belts in Pride and UFC, making him a true legend.

The Fight Between Minatauro and Mirko Cro Cop
This served to be one of the most unforgettable fights in MMA – to watch a fight between a perfect fighter in Mirko and a veteran competitor in Nog. When the MMA pound for pound fight for the interim title started, it was Mirko who emerged as the winner for the initial ten minutes but it was Nog who dominated the succeeding round. That day marked the strength of Nog, proving to his mma fans that no matter how tough it gets, he would still win against the odds.

The Fight Between Frank Mir and Brock Lesnar
With two legends facing off, this won’t surely miss a spot in the greatest fights ever in the UFC universe. Their first round was already intense that it messed up Mir’s face. When the second round started, Lesnar was still able to take him to the ground that proved his fists were just too much for Mir. Hence, the referee stopped the fight and declared a TKO in favor of Lesnar.

The Fight Between Fedor Emelianenko and Cro Cop
It took a lot of contract issues to settle for this biggest fights of all time came to happen. It was Fedor who won this game even after Mirko’s great fighting initiatives displayed during the first few minutes of the round. Ever since then, it was Fedor who reigned over any MMA pound for pound standings.
