I hope you get crushed to death by a fat guy trying to commit suicide by falling out of a window and when the paramedics answer the local bystander asking if you'll live, he just says "fat chance" and laughs.
Event of the year
UFC 244

Such a great card. Even the heavyweights were pretty good. Shame about the ending, but the fight was excellent up until then.

Holy poo poo. That's an amazing KO. Found a clip with some better replay angles midway through.

Worst card of the year:
UFC Fight Night: Błachowicz vs. Jacaré (also known as UFC Fight Night 164 and UFC on ESPN+ 22)

It's not over yet, but 4 of the 5 fights on the main card have been so bad that they could have been individually shortlisted for worst fight of the year.



E. Worst fight of the year: Andre Muniz def. Antonio Arroyo on the above card.

Worst Fight of the Year / Worst Card of the Year are really odd categories for voting because because that requires people to see them them, but you don't want to tell someone "Did you see this card/fight? Go watch it and see how bad it is! No way, this one is worse! Go watch it now!"

I think there should be a Foul of the Year nomination for Jake Hager's massive knee directly to Anthony Garrett's dick and balls at Bellator 231.

Also at the same event, Fernando Yamasaki, who (exists and) does exactly what Mario does, which is to say absolutely nothing during the round, but adds in this:

Also Bigi Boy vs Reem for comeback of the year, down 4 rounds on all scorecards, merciful walkaway KO that splits Reem's mouth bad enough we can see his mouthguard through where his lip used to be.
