i guess UFC is not all about bashing heads and banging fists...if one can win with the least amount of damage while enforcing his game plan, then it is a good fight for me...career wise, its an advantage for him...mental prowess should also be taken into consideration and not just brawns...besides, his strategy, as boring as it seems, picks opponents apart and exposes their weakness...i may not agree with how he fights but still his being a technical fighter is what makes him one tough SOB to crack...
