MMA: The Top 10 Fights of 2010

It's already that time of the year again.

Doesn't it feel like a year ago that we were all arguing which was the best fight of 2009?

I had picked Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira's epic battle with Randy Couture for No. 1 last year, but certainly wasn't part of the majority in thinking so.

Most people I talked to either picked Diego Sanchez's brutal war with Clay Guida or the five-round tug-of-war between Ben Henderson and Donald Cerrone.

The more I think of those fights, the more it does feel like a year. Or maybe even more.

Time seems to fly by when you have a lack of new memories to take the place of the old ones. But with MMA, that is never the case.

2010 had no shortage of memorable battles in the cage—or ring—making Couture's last real challenge seem like ages ago.

A lot can happen in a year. Bright contenders become champions or fall by the wayside only to be remembered as once overrated.

Champions continue to amaze or are deemed past their prime and rendered on the brink of relevancy.

Either way, nobody reads the intros.

On with the list!
