Decades from now, you'll be telling your grandkids the story of how Anderson Silva pulled off the armbar to end all armbars. It's truly MMA's first immaculate submission. I'm not even sure how many times I've told someone the events that transpired at UFC 117 and every time I do so, it exaggerates just a little. By next year, I wouldn't be surprised if laser sword wielding Thundercats somehow enters the story roughly around the fourth round. WarHendo33 created his own recollection of UFC 117 and if it doesn't inspire you to climb a mountain and scream at the top of your lungs...then you should probably watch it again. Enjoy. Props to Esther for the pic.

It was indeed an epic moment. In fact, epic should now be defined by showing this video.

Good video, almost enough to make you forget Sonnen is a loudmouth, disrespectful, borderline racist, lying f*ck who hasn't finished a fight in 3 years.

At least GSP tries to finish...watch his last fight. He tried to submit Hardy several times. How many times did Fitch try to finish Alves?

Wow, great fight. I don't know if it would of been better if Sonnen would of won like he should of, or if the dramatic hail Mary triangle by Anderson made the fight epic. I think this may go down as one of the more dramatic fights of all time. I know when we watched it people just went crazy, including me during the entire fight. Props to Sonnen for making anyone even care to see Anderson fight and for backing up his words with game!!

Great Vid I like the slow motion over the shoulder shot at the beginning of the third round.. nice to see the approach that slow. Poor Chael... If Silva didn't have a broken rib I'd say rematch right away. In this case I think you let Silva heal and Vitor Sonnen battle it out. Vitor needs a warm up fight anyway and Sonnen would be a perfect cardio test for Mr. Belfort

Cool video. When I watched the fight and Silva got that triangle/arm bar, I almost laughed out of joy. I love that he took out Sonnen on the ground from his back. He's king.

It really is one of the most legendary fights ever. Chael is forever an icon because of that fight.

6:38-6:56---Epic
The start before round 5 is sooo awesome
Lindland "you do not stop fighting, ok! No matter what, this is what we expected, blood. We are bloody, we are hurt, we love it!! This is what we want!"
Goldie "Sonnen is just five minutes away from achieving his life long dream"
Awesome fight between two awesome fighters, to bad one of them had to come out the loser. This hl clip only catches a glimpse of how great the fight was, that being said the hl was very well done.

Itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout.
Down came the rain, and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun, and dried up all the rain,
Then itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again.

@Last Shot, really sounds like Explosions but might be off one of their soundtrack. Need to check my collection for it
