I don't know if raising $10,650 for a charity qualifies you as one of the pound for pound best human beings in the world but it's still a very nice gesture from a very nice person. Way to go Anderson.

Yeah good article. Silva is solid.

Wish I had some more dough. I'd LOVE to own the pair of gloves he wore in that fight, or even moreso the pair he wore when he destroyed Rich the first time.

Yeah, I'll never forget the clip of Anderson apologizing to Franklin for destroying him after UFC 77. Im not sure I'd be so understanding after someone broke their foot off in my ass.

That's one of the aspects of MMA that I like a lot.

Earlier today I was watching the Kevin Randleman-Fedor fight; I like the embrace and the sharing of kind words between the two of them both in the ring (when Kevin picked Fedor up on his shoulder and whirled around with him) and after Randleman was already outside the ring, when Fedor went over and was talking with him again through the ropes.

All of this seconds after Randleman just suplexed Fedor drilling him into the canvas right on his head, and Fedor got Randleman to tap to a tight far-side armbar.

WAR MMA.

Man he is such a class act that it would be hard pressed to find someone who doesn't like him. I almost feel bad cause im rutting against him almost since hendo is still my favorite fighter.

But no one can deny that he is the best ambassador for the sport, just wait till he learns english, well at least i think he will.

10k to McDonalds house... thats it? Hell I have given a ton of money to poor folks, gave a blanket to a cold begger on the streat once, and always drop change in those little buckets at christmas time, and in my old rowdy days, I supported the well being of many a stripper! Where is the post praising JRUBE about what a great guy he is???? Huh????

Can't I be a kind man and an awesome human being too for my good deeds? Damn at least give a whitey a rep now and then!

OK my rant is over

Honestly... I love to watch the guy fight, and he is a stand up guy, always humbe, but I hope Hendo beats him!
