I like the guy. He may be stupid but he isn’t a Bad guy. Far worse people are employed by the UFC in my opinion. I hope to see him at a big promotion soon. If not the UFC, Strikeforce. The guy deserves another shot. No matter what he does. his fight against Jrock will always hold a special place in my heart.

Personally, I’m not a fan. Jon is athletic and fairly talented, though, and a very marketable character. I’m sure he’ll do just fine.

His legal name is War Machine. Nuff said.

I just watched the fight, and War Machine caught the dude with an overhand left, he fell back holding his eye (like he got poked), and the ref started to move in. Machine hesitated, the ref got a bit closer, then punced with three big shots just as the ref was moving in to call a time-out, which then turned into him waving off the fight.

The finish was half bad ref’ng, and half him swinging past the ref calling for a time out. I know a lot of people really dug the fight between him and Rollin’s, but all I remember about that is two untalented guys swingin’ at eachother. He’s refined a bit more since then.. but I don’t think we’ll see him in the big show for a while, and it’s not because of his big mouth.
