News RIP Jordan Breen

[PaulieVegas27]

Take this with a grain of salt, I have no idea what happened, but I found this post from 2 years ago of someone asking where he is, and apparently him slipping into alcoholism.

Yeah, I heard the same. I don't want to draw too many conclusions but I remember hearing him on Sherdog's post-fight show after UFC 230 (or at least I think it was 230) and he sounded awfully wasted. Even his co-host kinda alluded to it towards the end of the show. As a recovering alcoholic myself, it raised an eyebrow, I could sense something was going on.

RIP Jordan, thanks for giving us all you had while you were here.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

I remember this guy, although haven't heard from him for a long time until now. RIP.

 

[MigitAs]

Fuck, hate to hear shit like this.

RIP Jordan Breen, a true OG of our community.

 

[sonhow]

Rip
remember his live chat back in the day. He was confident BJ would whoop Diaz but we all have those days. Overall he seemed like a smart dude. And way too young to die. Wasnt he in his 40's?

 

[minowasmullet]

RIP sad news

 

[HP_Nut]

Rip to a real sherdog OG who gave us so much insight over the yrs

 

[Clark Rogers]

Damn, RIP.

haven't seen the name in a minute but I remember the radio show, old articles here and other places, etc. He was one of the OGs for sure.

Fairly young still too, i think. RIP

 

[Phisher]

Damn…RIP. Truly one is the best mma journalists ever, mma is such a shit industry that he had to quit cause he couldn’t make a living. He wasn’t just a stenographer, he actually wrote interesting shit that you learned a lot from. I wonder what he passed from, any word on that?

No idea. I just saw Mike Bohn's tweet earlier.

 

[surgeyou1]

Damn. One of the first ever MMA analyst/host I'd ever listened to. Very knowledgeable and passionate about the sport. RIP.

 

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

He used to host multiple shows on the old Sherdog streaming radio network.

Arguably the most knowledgeable guy to ever cover MMA.

Dherdog had a radio network?

 

[Raise Your Fist]

Damn RIP havent heard that name in a long time

 

[GIBLERTBAPTISTA]

RIP

He taught me a lot about the sport and put me onto a lot of obscure fights back in the day, especially JMMA stuff.

 

[STAY GOLD]

Dherdog had a radio network?

Yeah. Also streamed events like the classic Tachi Palace Fights that were the home for flyweights in the US.

 

[Tris]

I remember he came on the scene a long time ago

 

[Krimzon]

one of the great joys of my budding mma fandom was listening to Breen and co previewing UFC PPVs and then their subsequent post-event analysis on Beatdown After the Bell.

When I heard Sherdog radio was done , that was like equivalent to Trump winning for a leftist in my world

 

[Ironheart]

RIP to a legend. Very very sad.

 

[Bullitt68]

Wow, this hits harder than I would've expected (then again I wouldn't have expected him to die so young). I knew him best by his original username on here when he was just a poster, mysexisartsy.* Any time someone created an MMA trivia thread, I knew my competition was him and Kolchak. He was always cool dropping knowledge on here and loved the sport so much, especially the early Japanese scene. RIP.

RIP
Off to the big Sherdog couch in the sky

Jordan was a big name back when I first became a member of Sherdog in like 2003 or 2004 back when MMA enthusiasts were the coolest of the cool. Back when we were 6'5 280 lb juggernauts of pure muscle with massive dongs. Now most ya'all are ectomorphic cunts. Or worse... Jon Jones fans. Anyways, RIP Jordan.
