Media Whatever happened to Brandon "Rukus" Thatch?

[The_Renaissance]

Great hammer, poor nail, basically.

 

[NoBiasJustMMA]

His TDD and cardio was bad so he didn't live up to the potential he showed with his striking and clinch game.

This is from 11 days ago... it seems that his back is still fucked as some of you guys pointed out.

 

[Enigma87]

Super talented on the feet offensively however he was a classic bully and folded once his opponents were tough/skilled enough to withstand his assault.

His lack of grappling skills wouldn't have been such a big problem but he also had a poor chin he ended up on the ground from takedowns and being dropped including by Gunnar Nelson of all people.

To be fair that was quite a bomb lol

 

[VinceArch]

He was clearly one of those guys that didn't seem to care that much about winning. He always looked quite indifferent.
Imagine Carlos Condit with even less grit and ground skills, and an average fight IQ.

 

[ChimRichalds]

Bendo definitely stole his soul.

What in the hell is that tattoo on his right pec? That must have taken forever and been painful as hell to have a black blob there.

Its a cover-up, it used to be a woman and a snake, I am guessing the woman is an ex.

Damn, it looked cool as hell before. That's a lot of time and pain for one tattoo. Can you imagine just getting it filled in like that?

He got gouged in the eye by a toothpick inside the octagon. Never been the same since.

 

[Shoguns Prodigy**]

Bendo came up and destroyed him and his hype and he was never to be heard from again.

I feel like his armpit tats would hurt way more

Yep. I was told the inner forearm was the most painful place to get one. I'm pretty sure there are other areas more painful. That being one of them.

That chart does not have a closeup of the b-hole, thus-invalid.

Guy is like 230 lbs but still in shape

I thought he'd be a fat tub of lard having been retired for like 10 years lol

I can't haha. Its a weird choice, maybe its all he could afford, or he did it himself.

There is an adult film actress named Adrenalynn who has a tattoo that may be relevant to your interests.

He could get a start in a Tango and Cash remake

Damn, you'd think men understood long time ago that putting a certain woman permanently on your skin is a terrible idea.
