    What a weird night. Dana will be raging. The * lost, the Weidman * up, Rumble retiring.

    Rumble shouting out Goldie too, some man. Hope Rogan gets him on the podcast to talk more about it all.

    Rumble is one of the scariest men alive but you couldn't get a nicer guy if you tried.

    Big loss.

    Well, for me, all the top guys have enormous courage. I think there are many top 5 guys supremely talented in every division, who dont have the courage to get to the top. I think he is unfortunate to happen to be in the same division as the greatest MMA artist we have yet seen, and if not for him, DC would be a contender for that title himself.

    Think you need your bed bud. Weidman was making more sense than you, DC doesn't even get near top 10 MMA artists.

    I'll rattle 10 off the top of my head which means there could be more, but Jones, Cruz, McGregor, DJ, Velasquez, Werdum, Belfort, GSP, Penn, Nick Diaz, Cowboy are all better MMA artists. Think that's 11.

    Think you're the one needing your bed to be honest.

    You clearly don't like Cormier and are just talking * trying to downplay his achievements.

    The GOAT is the only person to have beaten him and he took him all the way. To say people like McGregor, Cowboy and Nick Diaz are better than him is * laughable.

    Too late to argue, but youre dreaming. :giggle1: Look at his record...actually look at it. One loss, to JJ by decision. I cant believe half of those you offered up there!

    He's a glorified wrestler, he's not an MMA artist. Get your heads checked.

    OSP, Rashad Evans and Stephan Bonnar took Jones all the way ffs.

    Any man that steps into that environment has an immense amount of courage. Especially against a monster like Rumble.

    Doesn't matter if it's your job and you're getting paid (handsomely) for it. Abalone fishermen over here, as an abstract example, free diving for molluscs while totally defenceless to the predators around. People who perform dangerous jobs are courageous as *.

    I'm a Jones fan but this is a ridiculous post.

    Undefeated at hw and only moved down because his mate was the champion and only narrowly beaten by the best of all time.

    Cowboy for * sake haha

    He was #40 on the top 200 list and you're saying he'd be considered the greatest if Jones wasn't there.

    :rofl:

    Aye of course. But you can't single Cormier out and give him praise as being courageous. He's no more courageous than the thousands of * fighters who probably fought tonight.

    Right, they are all "MM artists". It's hilarious that people actually think he's the greatest behind Jones. That's honestly mad.

    Cowboy has more talent and technique in his legs than Cormier has.
