A list of UFC’s most exciting fights wouldn’t be complete without including “The Highlight” himself Justin Gaethje. Gaethje closed out an epic night of fights in The Ultimate Fighter 25 season finale, that saw Jesse Taylor defeat Dhiego Lima to become The Ultimate Fighter, in a Fight of the Night earning bout against Michael Johnson.
10 seconds into the opening round, Johnson already landed a huge left hand stunning Gaethje, and from there on out, both athletes slugged it out until only one man was left standing. Only lasting less than two rounds, these nine minutes of fireworks earned the UFC Fight of the Year honors, an award Gaethje has since won a second time in 2021 for his battle against Michael Chandler at Madison Square Garden.
