Not in the poll, but Story of the Year for me was how to guys from the same alma mater wrestling program came to fight and highlighted the evolution of skill in lightweight and MMA... Lee still has a long way to go but I believe he's really good, and despite there being other guys ahead of him in contenders, love how A) he was willing to fight, and B) there's not much bad you can say about Lee, 155 may be the deepest out there and it's a good thing we have a lot of other great top 10 fights. Looking forward to everything next and in the future from Lee and Ferguson.

That's another thing about that story I like. It's still in the present and going to be in the future and involving other great fighters. Want to see Ferguson and Khabib and Lee vs some top 5 guy.

Only 1.5 of the poll options were about actual fights. Thus, personally not gonna care.

Bumping this up to hopefully get a few more last minute votes before the glut of 2018 cards start.
