Whatever happened to:

[saugeye killah]

Here's mine:

Claude Patrick.

Guy was 14-1, loses a split decision to a very good fighter in Brian Ebersole, and then disappears? Hasn't fought since Dec 2011. He's still only 33 right now, seemed like he had a good future in the UFC. What happened, does anyone know? Injury problems? Did he retire?

Feel free to add your own Whatever happened to...

edit: apologies too, I googled it now and saw this thread has happened before, oh well I'll just roll with it.

Patrick was trying to get on the card next Saturday in Vancouver.

Apparently he blames the Canadian health care system for waiting to get surgery for an injury.

Speaking of which, looking back at Brian Ebersole's record: Shouldn't this guy be getting mentioned in "greatest chin" conversations by now? 66 pro fights, never been knocked out. That's pretty remarkable, I don't care who you're fighting. And he doesn't fight all cans, either.

edit: oh well, I guess he did tap to punches from Lombard. But still....Who wouldn't.

Phillip Miller! From American gladiator to undefeated middleweight to San Bernadino Sheriff???

 

[Bubson Bubba]

Adlan 'Borz' Amagov. Despite how stacked the WW is he is a Top 5 prospect in my eyes. Just 25 years of age. Last loss to Robbie Lawler , A fight he was winning until a silly mistake. Butchered Waldburger in his last appearance. But then simply disappeared. Mentioned some personal family issue once though.

He's had injury problems.

He was scheduled to be a fill in for 174 next week in case someone got hurt.

Ricardo Arona

Prime Mirko Crocop in the UFC

He thought that he would be able to walk into UFC and easily wreck everyone so as a result he didn't train very seriously, didn't even train in a cage and just didn't really give a shit.

All of that culminated in this

As for Arona, I think he may or may not have had some drugs problems, which he later beat and then last I heard he was a pro surfer in Brazil now.

His chin was so good he couldn't go unconscious, so he had to tap. What a boss.
