Favorite un-winners?

Sherdog writes about Kimbo and record ratings to see the TUF fight:

Quote:

A sad but true fact: personalities will always sell more than accomplishments. Something about Slice makes people want to see him fight. Winning doesn’t seem to matter much. Good work if you can get it.

I've thought that for some time. There are certain people I love to see fight whether they win or lose. A couple of examples:

Chris Lytle. The dude is a brawler who always brings it. He is just a blast to watch and it is always entertaining to see him winging punches. Any time Chris is on the card he makes it a better promotion.

Houston Alexander. Great build and an explosive style that never gets tiring to watch. Too bad he tends to choke. I would still pay to see him fight any time.

Karo Parisyan , When he is on his game. Love to see those beautiful jodo throws. He makes it look effortless.

How about you?

Clay Guida

I second the vote for Clay Guida.

I also like watching Urijah Faber fight.

I love houston and Karo.

And anytime Tank abbot has his *** handed to him.

I have to vote for Chris Leben myself.

I'm going to go with Clay Guida too. He's a wildman and you always know he'll bring it.
