Anyone that's followed the UFC or sherdog for that matter since the beginning realizes that both fighters are but a loss or two from irrelevance. While the Irish bum did make money of historical significance in the sport(and I'm sure all future stars will be grateful, as am I in that one respect). The days of the stoic quiet mild mannered role model may become a thing of the past(ala Couture, Fedor, Hendo) as a result. Fighters may be forced to play roles that aren't themselves in order to receive a big pay day. So all in all the legacy is tainted. This will end, then the next wave of nuthuggers on some other obnoxious persona will enter and the cycle continues. These fads will pass. They won't have any legitimate impact on the goat conversations when it's all said and done.
