Favourite MMA fighter?
Who is your favourite MMA fighter? Not necessarily the best just your personal favourite? Theres not a poll on this because I've just started watching MMA so my knowledge is not too good at the moment.So just discuss your favourite.
Re: Favourite MMA fighter?
My favourite fighter is Quinton Rampage Jackson, I just think he's badass!
Also like Brock Lesnar (I'm a wrestling fan so view him as 'one of ours'!), BJ Penn, Lyoto Machida, Jon Jones and I was a big fan of Chuck Liddell.

I loved the fights between Lidell and Couture.
Rampage is brilliant too!
However there are a few other guys who deserve a mention - Clay Guida and Mayhem Miller. Both nutters!

Re: Favourite MMA fighter?
Only been into MMA for last 2 years or so, so can't appreciate fighters from the past and you don't seem to get that real bond to them.
Of the newer and current fighters i'd go with Overeem (want to see how he'd fair against the UFC guys), GSP and Rua.

Re: Favourite MMA fighter?
As I kind of got in to MMA late, havent really got a favourite fighter. Although its was Randy Couture v Tim Sylvia was one of my first fights I watched and have done ever since so Randy has to be up there.
There are a few I like to watch for entertainment value
Crazy Horse Charles Bennett
Clay Guida
Diego Sanchez
Fedor

Re: Favourite MMA fighter?
Chuck Liddell will always be my favourite - the reason i started watching MMA
It was hard viewing watching his last few fights.
Currently my favourite is GSP - the best at what he does and just such a classy guy.

GSP - Probably the best p4p fighter out there and someone who is undoubtedly a nice guy, however, from really enjoying his matches a few years ago, I know find him quite boring,
Liddell - Same as you. Really use to like him but a few brutal knockouts suggest he has nothing really left to offer. The Rashad Evans knockout was one of the worst I have seen (as in brutal)
Re: Favourite MMA fighter?
I agree that GSP fights could be better - they were definately more entertaining a few years ago - the KO loss to Serra changed him no doubt - he doesnt seem to take risks at all anymore.....but on the flipside of that it is up to his opponent to take the fight to him and that just has'nt happened - he is just too good for any WW on the planet.
Liddell is well and truly finished - great great fighter at the time of his dominance but i felt myself watching his last few fights hoping he didnt get hurt which is bad so i am glad he has finally retired.

Re: Favourite MMA fighter?
My favourites were always Cro Cop and Wanderlei Silva. They were so agressive and dominating in their pomp.
It's kind of sad to see them now, being beaten and KO'd by people they would have crushed in their prime.

Love Jon Jones or GSP.
Jones is such an athlete, and GSP has such a solid all round game, and is usually exciting.
