[Official] r/mma’s Monthly Nomination Thread: November 2020

Every year we run a ‘Best of’ contest for different categories. 2019’s is here. We’ll run this monthly so that at the end of the year we have a good batch of nominations to review.

How does this work, buddeh?

Nominate your entry for each category along with a motivation for why this nominee/nomination should win the category and if possible include links, vids, gifs. After the voting is over, we’ll remove contest mode so we can see the top two nominations.

TLDR:

– Reply to Distinguished comments below per category (links are included under each category)

– Add your nomination with a motivation and include gifs, vids, etc.

– Not all categories for year end will be in the monthly voting

– This is for ALL MMA organizations, not just UFC
