        Two undefeated fighters have retired recently. Larryx is a diehard fan of one of them - you don't think he's going to give the other much respect do ya?

              What are you talking about? the head-butt to the noggin', the duck below the waist maneuver , the Hug 'n' Hold & Hold some more technique and his patented Pretend you've been low blowed and go down as if you've been shot move.

              These are his mad skillz.

                  Joe should be really, really thankful that he fought and beat Mikkel. With that name (and the others) on his resume he is legitimately the best 168 pounder of all time, one of the best fighters of this decade and has a legitimate claim to being a top 75 ATG.

                  Without that win he literally goes down as the second coming of Ottke who beat two formerly great American champions at the end of their respective careers.

                  That is pretty much why I say the Kessler win is Joe's best. Easily.

                    Those are just some of his arsenal. There is something Called Legacy ! He didnt stop when he was undefeated....
