All time UFC: Evan Tanner...built Texas Tough like a Ford truck
Current UFC: BJ Penn...elite bjj skill and flexibility which I find to be very entertaining
All time of all mma orgs: Igor Vovchanchyn...hardest mma puncher ever, a gentleman, the original stoic Russian
Current of all orgs: Fedor...no explanation needed

honorable mention...Josh Barnett

It's just funny that the he was dead wrong on all of his predictions on the popularity of MMA, just like he was told.

In the UFC:
Personality wise -- Forrest because of his attitude. Rampage because he is funny.
Fighting and style wise: Shogun, but Rampage is growing on me. Maybe Rampage will learn how to defend the Muay Thai by those Chute Boxe guys :)

Outside of UFC: Fedor and Yamamoto -- I love watching them fight.. I can't think of great personalities outside of UFC because I usually only see fight footage and not interviews.

Hehee... yeah, dead wrong. I'm so happy that a month's time has shown how wrong I was about a fad. Roller derby lasted longer.

Hey, you bring it up, you reap the rewards. Best to keep your window closed and your yap shut if you don't wanna hear how it really is in the outside world.

chuck liddell and nate quarry both usually put on great fights, but quarry wasn't close to being a title contender vs franklin but he will be soon

Are you related to Quarry or something?? :hat :drunk :smokin

I like the guy, but I just can't see him ever being a legit contender in the UFC...he'd get smashed in the WEC right now...

:lol i just like him because he likes to strike and has heavy hands, plus i think he would have won the ultimate fighter had he not been injured and he wouldn't have been rushed in so early to fight rich

LEONARD
09-12-2007, 05:05 PM
Possible...

I like the guy a lot, but he's got a long way to go to be a contender and he's coming off of serious back surgery...

Josh Barnett is my favorite fighter, even though hes not in the UFC
After that, Arlovski and Forrest
And when and if Lesnar ever gets in the UFC, he will probably more to number 1 on my list

rampage is my favorite. and i woulda said so before it became trendy to know his name. fucking posers didn't even know who quinton was until he beat chuck. i've followed him for a long time.

Guy is just an animal. Really really skilled and a huge heart.



Other notables Keith Jardine and Cheik Kongo, both just look ridiculously intimidating.

I don't think I have ever heard of a Jardine fan before!

But baby Joe is awesome. I am a big fan of his. When he thrashed Jens he had me off my couch screaming.

I still cant believe he didnt win UF5. I was the same way when he smashed jens. Then to see him in his first couple of matches in UF 5, he just destroyed people. Guy is really good.

Jardine just looks really scary. Like if he could, he'd rip your head off and mount it on his wall. I think he can take it to lidel on saturday. Odds are against him, but im smelling an upset.

Cheik Kongo looks very intimidating, but from what I've seen of him, he's not really as beastly as his physic and stature suggests. Sure, he beat Cro Cop, but anyone could have taken Cro Cop that night...he sucked.

Yea i dont think Kongo is much of a fighter. His physical stature is just amazing though. He looks like what i would picture a black Zeus to look like.

Jardine on the other hand will pull your spine out and floss with it.
