Fighters You Feel Sorry For

[Buff]

Johny Hendricks

• Was a star then it all went sour
• Lost his business
• Got KTFO in BKFC by gay porn star
• Laughing stock of the MMA world
• Arguably beat GSP, which would have changed his bum life

Leonard Garcia

• Never in a boring fight
• Cut because of internet pressure over a bad record (with 3 split decisions and a FOTY included)
• Leonard retired
• Shortly after this, The UFC debuted in Mexico, which would have been the perfect send off.
• Now getting thumped silly at BKFC

Marcus Brimage

• Fed to Connor
• Fed to Cody
• Wins via headkick
• Fed to Jimmie Rivera
• Cut - he deserved a little something after that murderers row

Ken Shamwow

• Got old before the money came
• Humiliated constantly by Tito, virtually destroying his legacy
• Too proud to know when to quit fighting/personal battles
• A true pioneer, now in debt doing security for Fiddy Cent

Tim Sylvia

• Pioneer that gets zero respect
• Burned bridges with The UFC
• Lost high profile fights spectacularly outside of the UFC
• Got depressed
• Now looks like he does in the pic above

Cat Zigano

• Husband/coach killed himself
• Loses to Ronda after rushing in (in retrospect would have likely won if she'd kept distance and struck)
• Beat Amanda Nunes before it meant something
• Never got over her demons
• Eye injury vs Megan Anderson
• Still broke with CTE fighting at Bellator

Jake Shields

• Reputation and legacy destroyed by UFC slander
• Atrocious cut from UFC
• Arm almost torn off vs Palhares
• Forgotten (He was really good)

Honorable mentions to Stitch Duram, Mike Goldberg, and the Zuffa Gladiator...

Maycee Barber ( no explanation needed)

 

[Buff]

Tiki Ghosn

Tiki banged Prime Arianny...

I don't care if it was "only a cut"... No sympathy is available for Tiki!

 

[sherdogwantedtonamemekiki]

Matt Veach.

His first fight in the UFC he gets Frankie Edgar. I remember it being a great fight but his 11-0 record was lost. Then he moves up to welterweight and loses to Paul Kelly. Then he was cut.

Matt Grice.

His fight with Bermudez was absolute carnage and then he had to retire right after that fight, because of a bad car accident.

 

[Guard]

My man Virgil

Also that Japanese dude who had to fight Cro Cop and Fedor back to back

 

[Brood]

Conor Mcgregor

- not getting due props for his 40 second destruction
- wrongfully stripped of belts while he's making the UFC what it is
- doesn't get an immediate rematch after fighting with an injured foot for the sake of the fans / promotion

You forgot:
- a bum

 

[Reign009]

Roxanne because she seemed too nice for MMA. I don't wanna see her get beat up. But I'm really glad she's doing well.

Felt bad for KZ for a long time because it seemed like he was so talented but was always injured. I've lost count of the injuries he's had but now he's doing well too and I'm really happy for him.

Reem because he's been on the receiving end of some brutal KOs and the fans throw it in his face. He seems like a pretty cool guy actually and somehow has been able to continue to compete for this long which is impressive.

Cat for obvious reasons and she just has a certain "sadness" to her. I know she's struggled with depression which is understandable. I really hope things get better for her in her personal life and in general.

Maybe I’d say California kid Faber for having so many title shots but never getting the ufc strap

 

[king of theRing]

Jonathon Goulet. Ufc knew he has a glass jaw and that even Kyle Maynard could knock him out, and gave him nothing but heavy handed knockout artists

 

[pick999]

Jose aldo

Went from mma elite to joe.

Soley known for the butt of conors harassment and ko.

 

[DanAndroid]

My man Virgil

Also that guy who fought Cro Cop and Fedor back to back

that makes me really sad, poor guy just wants to greet a fan

 

[Bluntforce420]

Tj Grant

Chris holdsworth

 

[Tito Tapped]

Will Chope. UFC shitcanned him but has since pushed many domestic abusers.

 

[TGArthur]

I miss this man every day

 

[MEAN357]

Charlie Brenneman used to hate him because of his shaggy from scooby doo haircut and wished he'd get knocked into Bolivian..... then he did multiple times got cut etc then I arbitrarily found out he was a huge philanthropist and did a ton of charity work for sick kids and i felt like shit lmao
