Hoping Gary Goodridge f**ks him up! He was in the first UFC on the dreamcast when i didn’t watch MMA and i always used to play as him. His last fight was a joke and i think the most likely result is him being the first MMA death but who knows maybe he can shock the world!
WANDY RIP

who are these bums? honestly call me a noob all you like but dream and sendoku are full of shit! when i rarely watch (as i don’t like the shows at all) a show from japan its full of fat or old Japanes fighters who are on the same skill level as Ken Shamrock on a 10 fight losing streak. UFC pisses all over these shows in asia even a ultimate fight night does. I don’t care about names im telling you what i see.
WANDY RIP
Wow, you could see his arm snap. I can’t stand Aoki, but that was awesome. They have to figure out a way for him to fight BJ. D-bag vs. D-bag. Would be a helluva fight.
