Jesus that loving sucks. I'll always remember his two bonkers, bloody but also weirdly good natured fights with Krystof Soszynski.

But yeah, he was an unintentional gatekeeper. Like someone above said, he fought and lost to fully four people who would go on to hold the belt (Evans, Griffin, Machida and Jones) and three who had held it (Ortiz, Coleman and Silva). Not a single one of those was a main event or anywhere near the peak of those guys careers, aside from Silva, who crushed him effortlessly. There's a Tom Waits song esque quality to his career. He wasn't even the bridesmaid, he was a stand in at a wedding rehearsal. Yet the sport is absolutely built on him in a very specific way and guys like him in a more general way and I wish he'd gotten a little more recognition. Hope he finds the peace that he didn't find here.

Yup. But for his fight with Forrest, the UFC and MMA doesn't really exist in the same way it does today. :rip:
