A modest appreciation thread about the englishman (from a frenchman lol)
He don't have a sexy fighting style like Anderson Silva or Cung lee (he beat both)
He might look and sound as an average fighter at some point, but
He never cheated and always goes to war (verbaly and physicaly) against juiced fighters, he never refused any opponents even if he knew his opponent was on juice
The only guy (with Diaz) who earned to fought the two legends GSP and Silva, he beat one
Despite being seen as a journeyman, became UFC champ fair and square, his run as a champ was not that good but there is few Aldo, AS, GSP in this world, can't blame him for that
Have an impressive resume overall (30-9 with big wins over big names)
Have many competitive wins against killers in the biggest league with just one eye and almost completely blind (valid eye who was not good either, lost the other eye on battlefield against maybe the most iconic juiced fighter of all time alongside Ubereem)
Show respect to The Count, he earned it with sweet and blood, he was not the most talented but he worked his ass off
He have one of the most inspiring MMA career IMO
