An epic video tribute by Machinemen which traces Evan's entire career. Truly beautiful stuff.
UPDATE: The petition to induct Evan Tanner into the UFC's Hall of Fame is at 4,150 and counting as of 2am EST on Sunday morning.

Very emotionally charged highlight video. Not his entire career though is it.

Not inappropriate to only show the highlights,
but I get the feeling that Evan would like for us to see some of the rougher parts, as well.
To struggle as hard as he did, for most people it’s important to gain some recognition of their efforts. Not praise, just recognition. And to know the scale of his struggles, you have to know what those struggles were.
Still and all, a truly wonderful piece.

wow, im at work and this video had my eyes watery. And seriously how can Evan Tanner not be inducted into the UFC hall of fame? IMO I’m almost sure that dana will make it happen, He’s one of the original pioneers in the mma game. Thanks for posting this video.

Awesome HL video. I agree with poundnground above – how could he not be inducted into the UFC hall of fame?

Wow, that was amazing. I am speechless – I sincerely hope that the UFC does recognize him on fight night Wednesday. I’d love to see him in the hall of fame as well.
