  1. My dude Clarence Costello is going to defy the odds in this tournament. Matthew Blades- prepare to lose your face!
  2. Hey everyone who voted for mine thanks so much! I know mine was like 10x longer than everyone else's so I apologize for the length- I got really into those questions as I started thinking about them haha. So excited to have this extra cash as I'm getting more and more into MMA Tycoon. Thanks again and let me plug the org I'm in and I try to help out- Troid! Check it out its a great organization. 90th event in less than 3 weeks. http://mmatycoon.com/orgpublic.php?oid=1893
  3. Mine is long but worth the read (I hope) and I just edited it and put my ID in it so take a look! Jett Jones (72252) Thanks for doing this guys. Very nice of you!
  4. Alright. Munees here I come! Jett Jones (72252) 1. e. (Make your own, but it better be good...) 2. My favorite MMA fighter ever is Randy Couture. I know this is the most cliche choice but sometimes cliches are for good reason so hear me out. Randy Couture is simply amazing; the dude understood what this sport was before anyone else did. He understood that you have to be able to fight anywhere and do anything in the cage- but if you couldn't you had to be able to take your opponent into your world. The best thing about Randy's fights, in my opinion, is that even when he is doing nothing but controlling or surviving, which other fighters get booed for, people understand how he fights and they never boo him. That is part of his game- making his opponent believe that no matter what- he will survive, he will work harder, and he will find a way to beat them. Preparing mentally for Randy Couture is more important than preparing any other part of your game when he is your next opponent. Lastly, his record is one of my favorite things about him. Randy Couture is not undefeated, his record is not even that remarkable, but it represents the history of the sport. Randy "The Natural" Couture might be the most important fighter to have ever competed in MMA. 3. I picked Randy but to be fair, I was very close to picking another legend. 4. I hate Brock Lesnar because he has more potential then even he realizes. Brock had the gift of size and his best skill was his athleticism. He'll always be criticized for not being able to take a punch and he'll always be praised for being able to jump into the top of the heap at the very beginning of his career and being able to compete. Take a minute to think about the "what if" scenarios regarding Brock Lesnar. What if he lead a healthier lifestyle and avoided diverticulitis? What if he didn't retire after the Overeem fight? What kind of mainstream attention would have come to the world of MMA if Kimbo done better and headlined a pay-per-view with Brock (even if the fight sucked.. it would have brought eyes to the sport and undoubtedly there would have been other fights on that card to keep people coming back for more). Most importantly- what if Brock took his career more seriously and sacrificed a little more to become the fighter he was capable of being? Imagine if Brock Lesnar was training with some heavy hitters- getting used to punches and kicks and honing those skills for himself? You're blind if you don't see the potential Brock Lesnar once had. 5a. My favorite fight ever.. this one is really tough for me. On one hand I want to say the first fight between Forrest Griffin and Stephan Bonnar and on the other I want to say the title fight between Michael Chandler and Eddie Alvarez. Both amazing fights but I'll go with Griffin/Bonnar for the sake of argument (and because I'm sure everyone reading this has seen it). That fight is why this sport is so amazing. Both fighters were flawed, neither of them where elite, unbeatable fighters. They were coming into the UFC when it was nowhere near what it is today and they were willing to fight forever to make sure they walked out with a contract. I respect all aspects of MMA but in that fight they just wanted to scrap until the other fell (something everyone loves to watch). The best part of the fight, and it will forever be engraved into my memory, is when they both came out for the final round and Bonnar was all bloodied up but he walked out looking like a wounded animal willing to fight for the last scrap of meat. That fight had more heart in it than any fight I've seen since then. 5b. Ah perfect! Now I'm able to use both of my favorite fights for this same question. My favorite fight that ended in a submission is Michael Chandler vs. Eddie Alvarez. There isn't much of an explanation needed for this one- if you saw the fight you know it was one of the best fights of all time. I love Eddie Alvarez and did not think he was going to lose that fight but both of those fighters ALWAYS come in prepared for war. That fight was simply amazing. So much heart and the best part is that it showed everyone watching that the UFC is not the only place to watch great MMA. That same night was the Shogun/Hendo fight where Hendo admitted after the fight that he stopped trying after the 3rd round because he felt he had it won on points. In my opinion that discredits that fight completely and I'll never put that on my list of favorite fights. If you watched all the fights from that night you would've seen an even better fight on Bellator and would've realized that you don't need to be a legend in the sport to put on a legendary performance. Extra Credit: Obviously Carlos Newton should have won but no referee would have been able to figure that out at the time so I can't complain about the decision. I just love the fact that there has been a UFC title change hands to someone that was unconscious at the time of winning the title.
