RIP Anthony "Rumble" Johnson

Don't know how many MMA fans we have on here but Rumble was one of the scariest men on earth at one point in time with the potential to be one of the greatest.  So sad.  Watching these athletes from afar, you think that they're invincible.  Godspeed, big dog.  Thank you for sacrificing your body for our bloodlust.

Damn, gone way too soon 😭  I got out of the MMA game a long time ago, during Rumble's reign of terror.

  I stepped away because I decided that I couldn't be a part of an industry that revolves around convincing young men (and women now) that permanent brain damage is just fine while the stockholders are the only ones who get rich in the end.  Maybe if the UFC had a long-term retirement contract or health services, instead of washing their hands of what they encouraged to happen and then bringing in the next round of suckers to fill the gap...  WWE was scummy with how they treated their talent in the 80s and 90s, and the UFC is no different.
