Perhaps the most famous and devastating knockout in MMA history, this UFC battle featured a relative unknown (to the casual fan) in Gabriel Gonzaga, squaring off against the UFC's huge signing and new poster boy Mirko "Cro Cop' Filipovic.
Gonzaga was billed as a ground expert, who would be well-advised to keep this fight on its feet as little as possible.
Commentator Randy Couture raised more than a couple eyebrows when he went against the grain and predicted a Gonzaga victory before the fight.
Since this match, I have always given a little extra weight to whatever Randy says before a fight goes down...
