Another one of the reasons Matt is one of my favorite fighters. He's a true class act and you know he doesn't just say things to say them.
We were a couple of seconds from sharing an elevator with Matt two days before UFC 92. I regret not being able to meet him. He seems like a nice person. I don't really blame him for celebrating his knockout. Everyone seems on his case but sometimes people get knocked out and sometimes they stay down for a little while. Doesn't mean you can't be happy about the win.
Matt is such a feel good story. I love watching him fight. Some of the heat he was taking on sherdog was just bullshit.
I like Matt too. He's a bit clueless at times in an immature way but he's generally a good person from what I have seen. Sherdog is full or a-holes who get off on being douchebags for the sake of being one.
just some of the ways he acted on TUF, he needed to grow up a bit. He was acting like he still lived with his mommy and he kinda milked his injury.
Ah, I never saw him on TUF. I really just look at him as a big kid having fun in that octagon, who has fought adversity his whole life.
He was getting a lot of heat on sherdog, and it was pretty dumb. A guy like Rampage when he KOed Wanderlei was doing his celebration and Wand was dead out. No one was giving him heat for doing his howling celebration. Or a guy like Gonzaga was celebrating when he KOed Crocop, he didn't get heat for it. I like the guy, but he would drive teammates nuts on TUF, because he would go around in the house yelling "WOOOOOOOOOOOOO" really loud, lol.
