    Edit, just realised that this was already mentioned on the TUF 11 thread but I still think it's shocking enough to warrant a new thread!

    I though it was just the mark from where he had it while training. Sometimes staph can leave a nasty enough scar/mark.

    Controversy seems to follow him around.

    This can hardly be explained away by he is deaf lol this time. The guy was a high end amateur wrestler he should know staph and how dangerous it is.

    By the looks of the picture it was still bad at the weigh ins. Its more down to the fight doctor od have thought rather than Hamill himself. At the end of the day i think most fighters would take the payday if they felt healthy.

    Its very dangerous to Jardine, McGee and McCray all of them were in danger of catching this. I've nothing against Hamill because the doctor said it was alright but you wonder why the doctor let it slide. Maybe he had a bet on:P

    I thought he was clear of infection but just run down as hell from it. Same as Big Nog against Mir.

    Completely disrespectful of Hamill to fight like that.
