It was tragic how he got grappled out of the ufc by the smallest, weakest men possible

When bendo tossed him around it looked like he was manhandling a lightheavyweight.

Bendo's entire career could fit here given before he was champion he was one if the most beloved fighters here, won the belt in very iffy circumstances, all but one of his defences were extremely iffy decisions, with the crowd booing him decided to spend an entire post fight denying a tooth pick existed, proposed in the ring to the loudest boos you have ever heard... and then just fell apart after Pettis choked him to death so suddenly the fams didnt even react because it was so sudden they didnt know the fight was over.

What a strange career.

Then he went out and made Brandon Thatch look like he didn't belong in the UFC (he didn't) and then faded off into oblivion.

Bendo's career highlight is getting kicked in the face by Pettis jumping off the cage.

David Loiseau was actually extremely close to being champion. He got his shot at Rich Franklin when Franklin was the top dog, and while the fight is remembered for the career-defining beating Franklin put on him, three rounds into said beating Loiseau was still capable of dropping the world champion on his rear end.

But he was never quite the same after the confidence-destroying experience of that fight, and then Anderson Silva showed up and basically every pre-2006 middleweight abruptly seemed ancient by comparison.

And who knew that 15 years later we'd still get amazing things out of Silva like his KO of Tito Ortiz.

Was that also the guy who went on to lose to Cody McKenzie by diving neck first into a guillotine after his coaches spent the whole episode saying "just stay away from the guillotine. That's all he has so just keep it standing and you'll win." Or were those two separate guys that I am getting mixed together?
