Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    That's terrible news.

    When I saw the post, I jumped to the conclusion that drugs could be involved, as he had a chequered history with cocaine, but something as random as being hit by a car just seems so wrong for such a great fighter.

    He absolutely has to be always in the conversation for greatest defensive fighter of all time and to be honest I always rooted against him when he was fighting but as the years went by my admiration for him grew and grew. I would most definitely have him in my personal top 10 Pound-for-Pound fighters of all time. That's not an emotive decision because of the occasion, I have stated that previously on this forum. He was a true legend.

    RIP.
