"Put" always puts me in trouble

To any English native user or anyone very familiar with English grammar.

I would appreacite it if you could help me with this sentence including "put".

The other day I watched a UFC video, and I heard "He always puts his fights to remember."

Does this means "He always makes his fights so imressive as to be remembered."?

If so, in this "He always puts his fights to remember." setence, is "put" correctly used in terms of grammar?


Please help me with this, would you?

It sounds very odd to me. You could say "He always puts up a fight to remember". Perhaps the commentator meant to say something like this, and stumbled over his words.

That just sounds wrong to me.

I think you may have misheard it. Is that possible?

Is this something we could find online?

If so, please give the link and the place where this occurs in the video.
