Hamill shouldn’t be there. Soko, Arona and Lil Nog should be there

that’s about everyone (in the UFC anyways–outside it, you got Ricardo Arona and maybe K. Nakamura). But speaking of “Top Talent”, you really think Hamill should be mentioned in the same breath as these guys?[/quote]
Or Houston for that matter. He was getting the worst of it standing until they clinched up in a dirty boxing match.

What about Soko?…Surely he’s a top tier fighter…Shogun has a mongo sized jaw.

Furthermore…Griffen, he’s really good but “Top Talent”? Rashad, we’ll see in a couple of weeks if he’s “Top Talent”? Tito, come on, “Top Talent”? Lambert, there’s no way he’s “Top Talent”, Jardine, there’s no way he’s “Top Talent”? Houston (one UFC fight, albeit a good one), already “Top Talent”? No way!!!

You’ve mentioned some very high calibre talent, but aside from Chuck, Hendo, Silva, Rampage and mabye Shogun; none of the fighters are deserved of the “Top Talent” descriptor. Notice I never mentioned Bisping…he’ll be there soon…after he is given a big time opponent (I guess the guy he faces after Hamill)

Too bad for the casual MMA (UFC) fan, Shogun Rua is a Bad MF’R. Hopefully it’s not career ending. I want to see him avenge his lost against Babalu.

Yup, just read this on mmanews.com as well. BTW is it against the rules to link to another mma site?
