Fun fighter but sadly the wars have caught up with him. Doesn't help that he's 41.

Wish some of these guys didn't feel the need to compete anymore.

I don’t mind them competing at all. Much like coaches that coach into their 70’s, it’s all that they know. It’s their passion. Just match these older guys up with other older guys.

It's not just the age. That's just a multiplier.

I wish Arlovski, Overeem, Struve, and a bunch of other guys could step away. I'm getting soft in my old age and it's getting harder to watch these guys getting violently switched off over and over.

I had the exact same hangup but then someone told me "let em bang bro" and I got over it. It's their brains, not mine!

I'm pretty sure I disagree. I'm also pretty sure most, if not all, of these folks have
taken enough blows to the head for one lifetime , before they reach age 35. But hey,
if you're ...whatever .... enough to do it in the first place, who am I to say you can't keep
doing it until your brain turns completely into mush ? o_O:cool:

oh, "agree" about matching geez with geez , for sure :cheers:

Actually, I think fighting is crazy and stupid to do, period, but I still love watching .
They can do whatever they want :)

Actually, I don't know wtf I think, half the time.
I'm always looking at both sides of situations, and, frankly,
it's pretty goddamm annoying sometimes :rolleyes:

manhoef vs wandy PLEASE!
Battle of the two guys with dynamite in their hands/legs.... But at this point in their careers/lives can be put out with a stiff breeze from an oscillating fan.

Hell lets make this fight, but have fans around the cage tossing Nerf balls in at them... We'll see what KO's them first, a strike or a Nerf ball.

This is why we have gentle grappling, for folks like you.

Looks like Melvin's lost some weight from when I used to see him .
I hope he's getting enough to eat .
