    Kind of an odd question, but who comes across really cool. Maybe not the best fighter, but a guy you could drink a beer with over a game of pool.

    I always thought Rampage seemed like a really cool guy, reminds me of a few of my friends anyway. Funny as hell and always ready with a comeback.

    I heard Matt Serra is really cool, laidback and funny. Plus he totally hates Matt Hughes which is a +

    i dunno, i used to think Rampage was a great character and a lot of fun, and still do to an extent, but on TUF he did show himself to be a bit of a bully....there's having a laugh at someone's expense as a form of banter, which can be funny, but when you just keep banging on about the same thing, it gets old quickly and becomes cheap. I haven't got bitch tits so i guess i'd be ok, but it would be uncomfortable to hang out with him if he's constantly picking on one person.

    So..... Jon Jones, Ross Pearson, Kenny Florian, Rashad Evans....they all come across pretty cool to me. There's probably more, i'd say quite a few in the sport are down to earth and humble in comparison to boxers.

    Be careful!!! Don't get too drunk or you may end up mistaking his chin for a pussy!

    Seriously though, Faber was the first one I thought of too. He seems like a genuinely cool guy that everyone gets along with.

    I actually hung out with Kevin Randleman at a fight a couple years back and he was cool as shit. He was wasted but not a sloppy drunk. Just having a lot of fun.

    BJ would be cool to hang with I think.

    Could you imagine hanging with Mayhem for a night of shenanigans? Pure entertainment!

    Ok, flipside, who is the worst to hang with? My vote goes immediately to Bisping. The guy is just a fucking tool.

    Hardy, because we would be getting into a bar brawl and possibly go to jail. Brock, because hes a dickhead. Hughes because he would be judging me all night for getting wasted!:rolleyes:

    Hughes would be the worst. Great pick.

    controversial one......


    Forrest Griffin. It's not that's he's unfunny, he occasionally gets a chuckle out of me...but he just tries to damn hard to be funny all of the time...it'd irritate me.

    Oh, and i'd want to ask him about why he ran out of the cage after the Silva fight, and he wouldn't want to talk about it. Awkward.
