I’m watching it now. Fucking Rich Chou is one of the people interviewed for it.
Was pretty wild.

He was definitely a big star, but yeah,not exactly a great fighter outside of backyard brawls.

What i dont understand is how he passed any prefight pysicals if his heart and blood pressure were so bad that he had heart failure at 42.

Well said. I never understood the Kimbo hate. There’s always the strawman of “he’s not a martial artist, he’s a street fighter” we know, dork, that’s why we like him.
He’s like a character from street fighter 2 or something. I miss those days of mma, everyone is a well rounded athlete now with no personality. I miss the characters

Do you really believe that? Have you ever seen or held rolled up quarters? Each roll is 40 quarters (ten dollars) 2 rolls of quarters is about one pound so he had a little over 2 pounds of quarters in his pockets? The mouth breathers on this website are unreal
his fight in the TUF house was spent under Roy Nelson’s belly
Yep.
He was popular and had star power. I’d always give him that.
And give him credit for at least making an attempt to be a legit fighter.
But calling him a superstar or legend is a stretch.

Diego Sanchez and his creepy Guru is next week’s episode
How else should they breath?
Only 2 pounds? So we’re talking maybe $75 worth, because that dude was a 185lbr & needed to weigh a certain amount just be considered heavyweight by the athletic commission.
I see it crushed you to watch your hero get folded like that.

Didn’t Sakuraba do that in Pride back in the day?
Was coming here to comment the same thing. I cannot stand that fake ass mofo.
Edit- watching this it reminds me everything Rich Chou touches goes to absolute shit. EliteXC, Strikeforce and Bellator. And of course the UG.
