17. A standup war

BFL 7 ‘Invasion’ went down on March 26, 2011 and featured one of the most prolific standup wars in Battlefield Fight League history.

Ken Tran took on Marcus Aurelio in a battle of attrition. This fight was not the main event, it was not even the co-main event, heck it was seventh from the top of the card. But it is easily the most talked about moment from the entire BFL 7 fight card.

It was a back and forth battle, with both men trading leather. Tran utilized his distance and Muay Thai prowess to control the cage, while Aurelio showcased his trademark Capoeira skills.

In the end, Aurelio was able to finish Tran with a slick rear-naked choke in the third round.
