Welcome to this week’s edition of MMA News’ Top 10 Finishes of the week! Every week there’s highlight-reel finishes all across the MMA world, and we’ve found some of the absolute best ones to showcase.
A relatively quiet week of MMA was highlighted by action from ACA, Mega Fight Champions, the UFC, and a pair of events from UAE Warriors. Each of those promotions makes two appearances on this week’s Top 10, plus some knockouts from LFA and Dana White‘s Contender Series to help balance out a particularly submission-heavy list.
#10: Gillian Robertson Rallies In The Second
After nearly being stopped with strikes early in the fight, Gillian Robertson turned the tables on Mariya Agapova in the second round at UFC Vegas 60.

#9: Janderson Barreto Plays Matador
Janderson Barreto maintained his undefeated record with a third-straight first round victory at Brazil’s Mega Fight Champions.
The 20-year-old stepped aside to put his opponent on the fence and landed a left hook to the body that ended things just over a minute into the fight.
#8: Ali Al-Quasi Reclaims His Title
After losing his featherweight title via doctor’s stoppage in July, Ali Al-Quasi decisively regained the belt at UAE Warriors 33.

Zelimkhan Amirov nearly cost himself dominant position against Jakyp Tuganbaev before some quick thinking earned him the victory.

Saykhan Uzbiev had a memorable pro debut at ACA Young Eagles 29 when he secured a unique submission against Zurab Bunakhaev.
