Every fighter has a bad day! DEAL WITH IT!
With the rash of upsests going around in MMA lately, let's just make one thing clear. Every fighter loses to someone he shouldn't(on paper). Get over it! stop talking about how a fighter is now past his prime, is slowing down, or one of my personal favorites "has a glass jaw."
No one is invincible, I love Fedor, but even he's lucky to still have an undefeated streak. Losses are a necessary thing and can be harmful but also beneficial to a fighter. Congratulations Sokoudjou, Henderson, Couture, Koscheck, and Serra.
To Wanderlei, Lil Nog, Arona, Big Tim, Diego and Georges, you're all Insane and great fighters and we now have a whack of rematches to keep us entertained for a bit. Having the courage to step in under all the pressure placed on your shoulders to fight and entertain us is why I'll be a fan of all MMA fighters.
P.S. Serra, you broke my heart. But Georges also needs the experience to understand and accept a bad night and treat it as such. Congratz to the new welterweight champ.
