I love Randy Couture. The way he carries himself, the way he repersents the sport and the way he fights. He just strikes a cord with me. I guess because I also fight in the same style that Randy does helps.

W. Silva, I like him because of his intensity and aggressiveness in the ring, but outside the ring he's a decent guy. I like watching him fight, he's very exciting and he's beaten good, and great fighters. I really like a LOT of fighters, but he's way at the top:)

I love Vitor. He started young and worked his way to the top. Hes the most entertaining fighter IMO. He always has surprises instore, except against Liddell :P

Chuck Liddell, IMO he is the best LHW right now and his actions in and out of the cage lead me to believe he is a good person....

Carlos Newton, he's the grappler that I want to be. I would love to train with him someday.

I have a favorite fighter, he is not famous, or world known, but I know what is in his heart! I know if he loses, he thinks of the many different holds he could have used, or the leglock he missed! And when he wins, he knows all the long hours, dedication & training make it worthwhile! I know his dream, of mastering every skill he has learned, applying the how to's and the knowledge that it will only happen if he gives his all to it. I know the great pride he feels for any fighter who chooses this as a life. I have heard him speak with great respect, many names of those he himself admires. To know what is in someones heart is to understand why they do what they do. To realize the love he has for this sport is no big thing. But what he brings with him to the sport, now that is magic! I will also realize how very proud I am that he steps up to a challenge, and win or lose, I won't lose respect because of a loss. It's knowing what is in his heart & the love he has for what he is doing that will keep me supporting him, no matter what! My favorite fighter is Scorpion Jeremy Jackson............ :)

most fighters don't have that ambition, most just go go go. the best learn, go, learn, go and win over and over.

i hope to see jeremy jackson in ufc taking that belt and holding it high for all his hard work. :)

I like the guys that win more by skill and heart than strength and killer instinct. I love the way a lot of guys fight and respect them all, but as far as styles go I like guys like Sak, Busta, and Nog. As far as professionalism and class are concerned Randy Couture is THE KING! I would love to see him compensated more for all the things that he brings to MMA in and outside of the ring. We could use more spokespeople like him. I'm tired of all the flashy big mouthed guys getting all the special treatment and attention and would like to see more of the accolades go to the class acts in the sport.
