Rewatched UFC 93 (Franklin vs Henderson) for the first time since like over a decade. Have you guys watched that fight? Pretty great card

Despite my pretty new join date, I have actually been a fan of MMA for over 15 years (on and off in the more recent years). I was looking through my old belongings and came across the first MMA DVD I ever purchased. UFC 93 Dan Henderson vs Rich Franklin. and Shogun Rua vs Mark Coleman. I won't spoil the results since some of the newer younger fans may not have seen the fight, I highly recommend you guys watch it. Pretty epic card

He was so old and past his best days but still had that dog in heem. Watching him beat the shit out of Bonnar was amazing too.

I'll rewatch that. In my mind it was a somewhat competitive fight. Bonnar was slow even against the geriatric Hammer. I remember that spinning kick to the body attempt. Thinking to myself I could've landed 2 in that time frame (before being carcassed, ofc).
 
Here are some of my old bodybuilding magazines (some dating back to 2008). this is only like one tenth of it. Bodybuilding will always be my number one hobby, but MMA is by far a close second

Mark Coleman impressed the hell out of me in that Shogun fight. The definition of not having any quit in him. Inspirational.

Same guy that ran into a burning house and saved his parents from death! A real life superhero, an elite Olympic athlete, the baddest man on the planet at the turn of the century. His life is like a movie. It's almost too unreal to believe. I had the chance to meet him and he is so cool and still has a lot of interesting stories from Japan. He also ran a really tough wrestling practice for us that day.

So lucky to be able to meet such a legend
Those type of memories last forever
The only fighter I ever met was BJ Penn at the UFC gym in Sydney Australia. I had my gloves signed there but there was a pretty busy line so we didn't really get to speak

My friends met Alexander Volkanovski, Robert Whittaker, Jon Jones at a fitness expo many years ago. My friend who met Volk got a shirt signed by him and gave it to me for my birthday. I will send a photo of the badass shirt later
