Face it, ina. Sport like MMA your favorite fighter is probably a sore loser

From excuses like he was tree times the size of me in there, to phantom injuries, to I was winning but I just got caught
Something about MMA inspires excuses for every high profile lost at every turn

Who are the most classy losers in MMA that buck this trend?

My opinion is by no means comprehensive, but for me the first guy to come to mind is

Dominick Cruz

Dominick Cruz is the only non-felon MMA fighter I dislike
But after getting styled on by Coby Gebhart, he took the loss like a man made no excuses and stood in front of the media to answer every question. Aside from the one corny ass quote “why would I sit, I’ve always been on my feet” or whatever, the Q&A sounded just like a normal post fight if he had won. Except obviously... he lost.
Hespect to the Dominator
Hopefully after he gets his shit pushed up by Lineker he’s the same

Also Cain
“It was not me noche”


Who you got
 
I thought Condit showed great class after his loss against Lawler. Even more so when you consider how close he’d just come to winning the title.
 
Lyoto Machida

I don't recall him being a sore loser EVER.
And he was super humble when he won too.

Fedor for sure is on top followed by Conor, Daniel C

> Of All the Brazilians you have fought, who was the toughest?

SAKU: Allan Goes. In that fight, I fought his style, not mine.
I think I lost that fight [special Fight Configuration: was ruled a Draw]
