From Superman punches to vicious ground-and-pound, every GOAT candidate has his (or her) go-to tools. Georges St-Pierre, Anderson Silva, and Jon Jones are debated amongst fans as to who reigns supreme. Each one had many aspects to their attack and defense, but of course, each fan will have their own that stands out to them.
One of the most exciting aspects in all of sporting competition is the upset. From March Madness to the biggest game in football, when the underdog wins, most everyone takes note. For the first time ever, Robert Whittaker was defeated by a man not named Israel Adesanya in the UFC’s Middleweight division at UFC 290. Dricus Du Plessis defeated the “Reaper” in a manner that next to nobody had predicted, with fans and pundits alike assuming Whittaker would collect another scalp at 185 lbs. and inevitably would end up fighting Israel Adesanya a third time. Yet, this is not what happened and Du Plessis has picked up a 2nd round victory via TKO and will now surely be granted a title shot. This is not the first time an upset such as this has happened in the organization. This article will look at five other times that the unexpected occurred throughout the long history of the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
