Sorry if this is not breaking news, but I just saw it today.
I'm so fucking happy! Stitch became a good friend of mine at UFC Rio 1 (UFC 134), but just recently we haven't talked in a while. The dude is the best in the MMA cutman business. As a cutman, and as a person. He was the one who introduced me to all the fighters, Jon Jones, Cigano, etc..when I was in Rio. ALL fighters look up to him as a father. Whenever they see him, they go right away to hug him. He saved many of them from cut stoppage, so they are all grateful.
Another fun fact of how humble he is, on UFC Fight Night: Rockhold vs. Philippou I texted him saying I was around, so in between fights, he went up to my seats to say hi and sat next to me to catch up. I was surprised how many casuals know him and wanted picture, etc... He obviously didn't need to do that.
Anyways, dude is awesome, so I'm just really happy for him! I know he has been doing a few boxing matches, and appeared on the Creed movie, so not like he was through tough moments, but I'm happy he is back into MMA..that's what he loves!
ps. By the way, I wanted to make a thread way back then when he was cut from the UFC to talk about how great he is, so hope I can give him back a bit by letting you all know about his greatness.
Stitch bless!
Edit: He said he wanted to give me something cool, but had no idea of what, so he said he just gave me his credential and signed it. I thought it was pretty cool! (specially because the cord is pretty cool with UFC written all over it, and it's the only UFC crap I would and do "wear")
