Any news on one of biggest hype bust s ever? I remember reading something about him renewing his contract or smt like that?
damn dude, this could be bannable.. a troll thread on someone possibly being dead? i duno, man
anyway, i heard he's back in cuba hangin with tupac
True but at least Melendez was mostly in really good fights. On the other hand,Brooks has been in complete snoozer.Melendez isn't far behind him, if he's really behind at all.
Not many actually thought Brooks was better than RDA or Khabib, but Melendez was considered by a lot of people to be the best lightweight in the world when he came over from Strikeforce. The guy defended his Strikeforce Lightweight title 5 times, and beat Aoki, Kawajiri, Masvidal, and Thomson in a row.
Dan ,in his later stages, may have been ragdolled by Daniel and was made quick work of by Gegard but he still went on to do this and ARGUABLY beat champ....I mean chump bisping again in what was supposed to be a " picky the cherry " fight in the 48 year old and #15 ranked Hendo( I still dont know to this second of this day how bisping got away with his behavior as " a champion ")I saw what Dan did, I need some convincing.

I always thought he was a big fish in a small pond.Never understood the Melendez hype. He never even looked like the best LW in the world. He had good wins but just watching him fight he looked very beatable.
