hello to forum peeps
 

I don't need any replies to this but i'm a long time lurker of the forum and thought I'd finally introduce myself. I'm Ben, 37 and from central IL.

mma related info not found on my profile: i've been watching the ufc since the belfort vs scott ferozo (spelling?) fight, whenever that was. I know it was a long time ago. I'm a big fan of Anderson Silva (2nd favorite) but Belfort is my favorite MMA fighter and I'm one of the few who thinks he will pull off the victory next month. This is the fight I've been looking forward to forever it seems. I'm also a huge Manny Paquaio fan. Lastly, I'd like to say, I'm hoping Jon Jones will live up to the hype and represent the US in the future as LHW champ. I'm anxious to see him up against some top competition.

favorite in mma:

1. vitor belfort
2. anderson silva
3. bj penn
4. jose aldo
5. shogun rua


favorite boxers of all time:


1. pacman
2. Sugar Ray Robinson
3. mike tyson

Welcome to the forum. I am also from central illinois pm me your town.

i tried but i wasn't allowed to pm yet since i don't have 50 posts. anyway, i'm in the springfield area. what about u?

Woah a MMA and boxing fan, we're a small minority my friend.

I love your list of fighters, RJJ/Lenox Lewis/Hagler/Tyson/Aldo and Liddell are among my fav's!

I don't like the Sugar Ray Leonard mention and Rashad 'splenda' Evans mention, but hey the good far outweighs the evil!
