You know there are so many people that deserve a pat on the back for this of course Matt for being a great role model and human being, your daughter for being brave desite her set backs, your buddy Tim, and man you deserve one yourself for simply being a great dad. This whole thing has brightened my day.

I was never really into Matt Hamill. In fact everytime he fought i ended up rooting for the other guy. Dont know why.

After reading this i am now a fan of his.

You sound like an awesome dad too !

Kudos to your daughter, Hammer, & yourself... Great story...

Wish I knew someone at ESPN or SI... This is the kind of stuff that can help change the stereotype of MMA fighters...

Every day all you see in this world is negativity and a whole load of bullshit. Knowing things like this happens make it all worthwhile.

Thank you to Matt and your daughter for being strong people we can all look up to.

Nice to see someone doing something nice, without any thought of a reward.
