This is very interesting. How a Zuffa fighter gets his achievements applauded while a non Zuffa fighter gets called a CAN. Lets look at the case of Roy Nelson and Jeff Monson. Both have granite for chins and both having only fallen by punches from one man, AA for Nelson and Rizzo for Monson. Yet everyone is praising and hyping Roy as having the toughest chin after being thrashed by Werdum, yet wont acknowledge Monson's equally strong resolve. In addition, zombies have called Monson a CAN and tried to diminish Fedor's achievements against him, all the while ignoring the fact that Monson has a better fight record, is better on the ground, has a tougher chin, and actually beat Nelson. Yet I never heard any of these zombies question why Werdum fought a CAN (BTW I dont regard Monson and Nelson as cans). I still have Monson as a better fighter, better chin, and better grappling as compared with Roy Nelson. Their ranking though is nowhere near each other. Nelson would have a better ranking courtesy of being a Zuffa employee. Monson after the Fedor fight (dont forget the broken leg), actually these would be better pictures.

Changed the picture, catch there. The actual after fight photos actually were worse. Monson's resolve and granite chins were of epic proportions. Fedor was smashing his head, body and legs but the guy kept coming. A broken leg and he still kept coming. Yet still no praise from zombies for his stoicism.
how about some praise from you for an Ultimate Fighter graduate? A fat boy with a heart will and chin like very few before him. Yet do we hear you singing is praises? You're becoming little more than an obvious troll. And an obvious troll is an obvious troll :twisted:
I actually gave Nelson credit already and hyped him up as a far better and more deserving fighter than Brock, during the "baddest man" Brock era. Guess what the zombies did nut:nut. Nelson is a good fighter, it doesnt matter that he has a belly. Its just that Monson is a better fighter. Im pointing out the different and biased treatment of a Zuffa and a non Zuffa fighter.
Neither guy was ever an elite heavyweight and both of them have now turned into walking punch bags. People take the **** out of Monson because you acted as if Fedors win over him was something special and that it meant Fedor was 'back'.
And yet Monson has a "W" beside his name against Nelson, and also battled for the UFC belt at one stage. Nothing about the man says CAN. Actually both men deserve more praise, Nelson is a descent fighter who is better than Brock, yet he doesnt get recognized because his figure isnt Dana White hero material.
