Oh, I want to add Akihiro Gono to my list. I'd add Genki Sudo, also, but he doesn't fight anymore.

I'm surprised ANYONE listed Matt Hughes, he's one of the most arrogant, stuck-up, full of himself, and unlikable fighters I've ever heard speak.

Everytime he steps in the cage, I'm hoping for his opponent to absolutely brutalize him. I mean tear his ****ing face off.
Have you ever met him? I have always liked the wrestlers in MMA, but I wasn't a big Matt fan until I met him. We chatted for a bit, had a beer, like normal folks. He was a really cool guy, and didn't act like he was doing me a favor or anything. He was pretty much the opposite of what you just posted.

I go Matt's gym and he's actually a very nice person.

Nice to see someone giving "Rumble" some respect. He trained at the place I used to train MMA at for a while before his fight with Speer; dude is sick and I was so glad I didn't have to spar against him, lol.

GSP
Maia
Rampage
Couture
Nick Diaz

I would've included BJ Penn in this, but I did root against him in the GSP fight, so I have to be honest.
