10 Most Unique Submissions In UFC History

4. Chin-To-Eye

Who: Mark Kerr vs. Dan Bobish

When: UFC 14

This submission, still to this day, is yet to have an actual name more than two decades after it happened, such is the bizarre nature of how the fight finished.

During the UFC 14's heavyweight tournament final, the outrageously-muscled Mark Kerr wrangled his heavy opponent, Dan Bobish, into an Arm Triangle position barely 90 seconds into the fight.

What happened next was about as unexpected as it gets inside the cage.

Instead of locking in the aforementioned Arm Triangle, or a variant of it, Kerr instead tightened his grip to maintain the position he was in, then proceeded to jam the pointed end of his chin into the upper side of the cheek, then the eye of poor old Bobish.

With nowhere to go and his eye at risk of copping some serious long-term damage, Bobish had no other option but to tap while Coleman's chin was grinding its way across his face.

Video of the finish is incredibly difficult to find outside of UFC Fight Pass, but the video above (you'll need to skip the first couple of minutes, it's weird and useless) is a good representation of just how Kerr managed to get his head into the right spot.

It might not be the first idea that comes into your head while grappling on the ground, but huge props to Kerr for being inventive enough, or crazy enough, to be the only man in UFC history to win via his own chin.

It's a funny sport sometimes.
