#2 Demetrious Johnson’s suplex-armbar transition
At UFC 216, Demetrious Johnson pulled off a miraculous finale to his tug-of-war battle against Ray Borg. The former wrestler who is known for effective submission manoeuvres, did quite the unthinkable, eliciting a thunderous roar from those in attendance.
In the middle of round 5, Johnson hoisted Borg up for a suplex and in a surprising twist of events, transitioned it into an armbar while Borg was still in the air. The sheer technical genius of that move won that fight a “performance of the night” award.
