In a world of trash-talking fighters...

[FireKidWS]

Who is your favorite old school aka “respect your opponent, respect yourself, respect the martial arts” fighter?

I am torn between Demian Maia and Lyoto Machida.

I also feel like Robert Whittaker and Stipe Miocic are both pretty respectable dudes as well.

GSP

Probably Bisping, dude is so polite and a gentleman.

[BlancoDiablo828]

Chael. Without question. Dude was always the epitome of civility and professionalism. Bones is a close second.

Am I doing this right

Machida, even though I hated his style and was glad when Jones choked him out. He is a respectful piss drinking dude.
