MMAFrenzy takes a look back at some of the most cringe-worthy submissions of the year. Be sure to check out the rest of our 2012 awards as well. One common, and somewhat unfortunate, them of this list is how many of the submissions listed were not very accessible do to the fact that many took place on undercards or were on restricted networks.

Honorable Mention: Sarah D'Alello def. Vanessa Porto (reverse triangle) - Invicta FC 2, Jessamyn Duke def. Marciea Allen (armbar) - Invicta FC 3
