Cause there is still a boxing mentality among fans that if you cant do your "talking" "on your feet" then your still not really the better man. Yes the better mma fighter (and thus the better man) but still not with the swagger of a puncher.
Altho if you ever had a wrestler g&p you would say he was the "better man".
I have, but not for long  I said uncle quick.. street fight deal.. I unknowingly got into it with a state championship wrestler who was way smaller than me..  He was prob about a 145LB weight class or even less in high school. I was about 6'3 and reasonably hard 255. He immediately took me down and I soon realized this was no fun for "Amateur Charlie" laying on my back. True story  Grant it I was 48 y/o and not in my pizza delivery days fighting shape and he was about 40 with something to prove.
Moral. Dont mess with a 40 y/o state champ wrestler no matter how small he looks. Unless you are my neighbor up here, Brock Lesnar.
Good to have some input from a real MMA fighter on this board (and a good one). If you were a weight class higher we might see you one of these times on the Spike undercard.  Would be great

I hear rumor that UFC will take on the 145 class... specally after the ratings from aldo v faber ...
I can vary from 135-155 as far as weight go's.. I'm a Huge 135er, good 145er, and small ass 155er like frankie edgar..
I walk about 165lbs... I am 167 today... little fat but im out for 3 months with a bruise on the brain.. I have to have a re-scan of the brain beginning of aug to clear me.. then hopefully a nice fight in october-november-dec.... haven't decided on the weight class I guess it depends on the money and who they want to give me... hell ill fight welter and middleweight for the right amount of money
