    I'm sorry, but on a scale of 1-10, as far as things that handicapped people have accomplished, Hammill rates a 4. I like him not b/c he's deaf, but b/c he seems like a genuinely good person.

    One of the coolest moments in MMA history:

    Hamill vs Bisping

    95% of the people at the arena is Bispings fans, the event is in London. Classic England vs US of A. Hamill enters to "Born in the USA" by Bruce the boss, and he is deaf. That's attitude.

    You do know that song is Anti USA, it's ironic that people think its Pro USA but Hamel being def should have read the lyrics.

    As for Hamel he is strong and brave with power hands, he will never be a champion because the UFC won't give him a chance and the division is jam packed.

    Well, Franklin just beat the living hell out of him in his first fight at 205 in years, so that's good reason not to give him a title shot. Also, I don't think he can beat the top guys (Griffin, Machida, Evans, Liddel etc etc etc). He's just...not quite good enough.

    He totally owns second tier guys though. Totally owns them. Totally.
