Shonie Carter's spinning backfist to Matt Serra
Ryo's sub on Anderson Silva
Rampage's KO over Liddell
Now, I say there is no such thing as a fluke, But these come to mind.
And before I get flamed for the Rampage/Liddell one, Rampage still would of won, But what a 'fluke' to do it with one blow!!
You totally missed my point.
Ryo Chonan was well on the way for a un decision in the silva fight.
And Rampage/Carter aimed, threw and landed thier strikes....where is the fluke in that?
the Serra/Carter to me has fluke on it simply because carter was getting beat on everywhere... the backfist came out of no where and koed him... i think the KO was more of a fluke then anything else
It actually didn't KO him...it only knocked him down. To this day, I still think Serra could have continued.
i agree but they ruled it a KO

The judges giving Bisping the decision over Hammil was the biggest fluke.

moti>smith was one... although smith's wild style is basically the main blame...

I have to defimitely go with Fedor /TK. " Losing" a fight when you were struck illegally, and the tournament format needed someone to be declared winner, even though the " winner" was the guy who did the illegal strike?  Fedor is still undefeated in my book. I don't think they needed to declare it a loss either. A no contest, and TK moves on, because Fedor is unable to continue makes much more sense to me.

the victor belfort vs randy fight 2 was pretty bad, title on the line, thousands of people shelling out good money to watch a fight last 30 seconds for a finger in the eye, and besides they should have made the match a no contest

Coleman VS Takada. (even though rumors still say the fight was fixed,the first time I saw that I felt about the same way Stephen Quadros did.It defied reality.)
Saku VS Schembri 1 I feel like was somewhat of a fluke as well.

The guy who won at UFC 3 against Gracie was Harold Howard.
The 3 biggest fluke wins i think are.
Mark Kerr Koing himself against a japanese fighter when he went for the takedown.
Matt Lindland doing the same when trying to suplex Faliniko Vitale.
Matt Hughes v Carlos Newton. Newton choked out Hughes with a triangle choke. Hughes was able to stand up, as he went unconcious he fell and the impact of the slam ko'd Newton and Hughes was awarded the victory.

Pedro Rizzo's split decision win over Mark Coleman at UFC 18 was a fluke in my opinion.
