Demetrious Johnson was well on his way to breaking Anderson Silva’s title defense record with a completely dominant performance for over 20 mins. He probably had multiple 10-8 rounds to his name already, but instead of settling for what already would’ve been an impressive decision win, Mighty Mouse made his record-setting win even more special.

As they clinched, Johnson went for a suplex and tossed Ray Borg in the air. Before he even landed on the ground, DJ already had an armbar locked in, and he finished what would be one of the craziest submission finishes in UFC history.
