"Gilbert Yvel, a true legend of MMA..."

C’mon Nate, really? What fights has Yvel won that you think afford him legendary status?

I think knocking out Rizzo, Kongo, and Schilt

in your MMA career gets you pretty close to “legendary” status.

A 2009 Rizzo and a 2004 Kongo? Fucking Carmelo Marrero beat Kongo in ’06.

Randy’s a legend. Nog’s a legend. Yvel is a guy who’s been fighting a long time.

I meant legend in the sense

that he’s got a storied and infamous career. Tank Abbott is also a legend.

Booby Ologun is a legend!

for all intents and purposes, just consider all my posts as works of satire.

In the sense that he's the first to play into Japan's stereotype of Africans?

In that he is the first television show personality to transition into MMA.

for all intents and purposes, just consider all my posts as works of satire.

Is that an inverted protractor on his belly?

It’s the Bad Boy logo.

I remember seeing recently that Yvel just got his purple belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

This shirt is "dry clean only", which means it's dirty.
