Who is your favorite fighter?

Postby MarkBrenn » Thu Mar 22, 2012 2:56 pm

Any UFC or mixed martial arts fans out there? Who is your favorite fighter? I like Dan Henderson. No flash and tough as nails. He doesn't talk trash, he just goes out and fights. He is a true competitor and always wants to fight the best fighters in the division, whatever division that my be at the time. He's a throwback to a time when a fighters number one objective was to prove himself to be the best, not just to collect a paycheck and become famous.

I have several favorites. GSP is definitely one of my favorite due to his dominance and the fact that he is just so humble outside the cage. I also like Clay Guida; he may not be the overall best fighter, but he's got a ton of heart and is just so charismatic. I don't really care how good a fighter is; as long as he gives it his all and puts on an entertaining fight for the fans, then that is good enough for me.

I agree with the above. I like Georges St. Pierre, been a fan since his first few fights in the UFC.

I'm a little worried though, his last few fights haven't been the best. He is not trying to finish his fights. He keeps the fight standing up and goes for a take down late into the round to win a point. Hopefully he doesn't leave the fight to the judges when he returns to fight Condit, that's if Condit doesn't fight someone else before GSP.

My favorite may not be part of your list but Chael Sonnen is my favorite. I know a lot of people hated him because he talks a lot and all this trash talking involved but the guy is a genuine and elite fighter. Look at what he did to Anderson Silva until he made that one mistake but for me wins the fight, he beat the hell out of Silva that time. I think he's just smart and is really confident on himself that's why he really loves to get into your skin. He sure knows how to sell fights too and the guy is full of humor. There's a lot of funny and crazy interviews with this guy and I can't stop laughing.

For me, my favorite fighter is B.J. Penn. I think he was one of the best lightweights to ever step foot in the octagon. I love his confidence and the way he presents himself. His resume is incredible beating the likes of Matt Hughes, GSP, Sean Sherk, Diego Sanchez, and Kenny Florian. I also love his style of fighting. The way he mixes up his combinations and his dynamic guard off his back is a fun to watch.

My favourite is GSP. Although I started watching UFC when he was in his more destructive days, I still highly appreciate his tactics and his ability to out manoeuvre his opponent. It seems to me that he finds what his opponent is best at, and then beats them with it.

I know it's not a very original choice but my favourite is Anderson Silva. His fighting style is entertaining and unpredictable, I love watching his fights. His striking is clean and his submitting ability is equally as good.

Great choice and I would concur. He has yet to loose inside the UFC and is dominant with each outing. I would expect him to give Chael Sonnen a beating when they rematch this summer.

I also liked Joe Stevenson when he was relevant in the UFC. I wonder what he is doing now that he isn't in the UFC.
