I was going crazy when he came back against Filthy Tom.

He’ one helluva tough SOB…and with all the fight’s he’s had, I hope he can eventually transition to coaching or something, so he doesn’t end up punchy. i think he has his own gym…

Probably the last time we'll see him in the ufc

hopefully mfc is interested in picking him up because i dont think strikeforce or bellator will want him. The guy is a scrapper and i wish him the best

I don’t think he gets along real well with the Pav.

Not unexpected

It’s weird that Hazelett gets to stick around though.

Nope.

Was actually 2-7 in the UFC, wasn’t he? And 0-1 in the WEC?

Getting a little nit-picky? 8-2 under the Zuffa banner

Just trying to be helpful, not nitpicky.

Doerksen is one of those dudes I’ll always have a soft spot for. I guess I just like grizzled journeyman sub grapplers.

He deserves a shot against a Kris McCray or somebody. I mean he stepped up and beat Filthy Tom [:’(] on short notice, and then dropped two to Dollaway and Miller, who are both real good fighters. Really feel like he deserved a third just for having the UFCs back.
