    I doubt very seriously he gets in the HOF.

    Shame he was old before he got on the scene.

    Dude was a roided up gorilla. I think he has a degree in engineering or something so he'll probably make more doing that than the payday he got for fighting Brock which was like 40 K :lol:

    Hes pretty much been retired unless you want to count TUF coach as not retired.

    His aged body is prone to injury which must be a constant stress. There's no point destroying your body anymore at this point what else does/can he need to prove. He missed a shot at Roy Nelson who just fought Kongo he's not missing out on much

    Sadly he never got to maximise his potential. First his stamina was disgraceful then when he seemed to be working on that, he had major injuries.

    He was a major steroid junkie though wasn't he? Didn't his name appear on a junkie register but he hadn't actually failed a test so he wasn't banned. Or am I making this up?

    Does not deserve it. Good fights - but not HOF calibre and not enough of them.
