After six months of action and wild occurrences in the books, it’s time to look back and revisit some of the strange moments so far in 2021. With gruesome injuries, weird behind-the-scenes moments, and more, the MMA Junkie staff voted on the nominees below and determined which moment stuck with us the most as the strangest from January through June. We decided to have a little fun with the final category, so let us know if we got it right and be sure to vote for what you think was the best performance over the past six months.
