Bring Back A Fighter

Retired from MMA for 5 years
Never held a UFC title (interm titles do not fall under this rule)


If you can't follow 2 simple rules this thread may not be for you lol
Gegard was never a champ neither was hendo or gomi... or do you mean a champ anywhere?
 
I got it... I agreed on that point... nevermind dude... you start out by saying Lets have fun... then just be a little bitch about it... it isn't fun. congrats.

lol you're the first one to complain about anything in this thread, congrats
 
Prime Carlos Newton.
Man was a physical speciman and master technician, had a ton of epic fights but not a great record in terms of MMAth.
However he held the belt so I guess he does not count.
 
id bring back chad mendes. he lost only to the absolute best in their primes. lightning fast hands for a guy with that much muscle, super explosive. he had the misfortune of fighting in one of the most perpetually stacked divisions, alongside prime aldo, edgar, and volk. on any given day, he could have been champ.

edit: i see your spoiler now ts. great pick!

Man It sucks that he never got there, so close. Who knows what mightve happened had he had taken out Volk (he was closer than most in the last few years).

Retired a little too soon, imo
 
I would like to see how well a 26 year old Brandon Vera would do starting at todays LHW
Don't mean to lean on you, B-forge but really ?
This dude was given every advantage and spoke the biggest game ever as a young man and has gone down as one of thee most overrated fighters in this sports history.

#it's all good
 
I know he hasn't been retired for 5 years but man do I miss Carlos Condit when he was still, you know, a killer. And not the meek pretty boy he eventually became.

I have no idea how performers don't get more burns and injuries standing next to pyro. I'm not a wrestling fan but my ex was and we went to a Smackdown show one time, I was surprised at how we could still feel the intense heat wave from the explosions a dozen rows back.
 
Florian was very good. Beat alot of good fighters,fought for the title.
They tried so hard to get UFC belts on Florian and Faber like 5 title shots in three division each. :oops: Yes that is clearly an exaggeration but they both got multiple title shots. Holly Holm gets a title shot every other fight too win or lose. :eek:
 
He still had to wrestle w third degree burns,didnt sell it at all.

He told the brass when he got to the back,that he did not ever want to see that Pyro guy ever again.
I don't blame him lol. Wasn't there a wrestler that stood right on top of some fireworks as it went off? Or am I making shit up

Holly Holm has a good manager. You can tell he's good because Dana hates him.
 
I would love to see a 26 years Lil Nog in todays LHW division. It would be right around his best days in Pride.
