Surprisingly weak chin for such a massive fellow!
Well at least he did a decent job, it could have been worse.

He was a nice guy and as I mentioned a while back, he did not seem to have the killer instinct for MMA.

Too bad. I really like the guy and I hoped we'd see more from him.

I am sure he could take out Bob Sapp....but his striking was so weak....I was so surprised by his ground game. He was really good on the microphone too, when I saw him on MMA Live (on ESPN) I was really surprised how smooth he was on the microphone...I'm sure he picked this up from being an NFL player.
After Wes Shivers went down, he was the NFL player I was hoping for. I am sure he doesn't need the money, and doesn't want to fight in backyard shows around the states. He was pretty entertaining...but after his lose to Mitrone, this is what I expected.

Saw this coming. Unfortunately, his chin is too glassy to have a long career in the UFC. However, he's big and powerful enough that with some solid striking defense training and more experience, he could have probably worked around his glass jaw. After all, they have to hit it if they want to put him down.
If he had started 10 years ago, he would have been a BEAST. His ground skills and his GnP are devastating.
I hope to see him at ADCC and Grappler's Quest in the future. It's a shame, too. He would have been a real asset against the nay-sayers of the sport. He's just such a great guy.
