I have met a few UFC fighters and they where really nice. They where also Brazilian, and Brazilians are very nice people. I also met a famous Texas preacher who was not nice in person. Which leads me to believe that people that beat people for a living are actually nicer than average people.
Where the UFC fighters you met nice? Which UFC fighters are actually jerks in person?

Met Forrest, good guy. Train with Chris Lytle and Jake O'Brien, both REALLY awesome guys. Trained under Rory Singer for 2 years, another Really great guy.

I ran into Evan Tanner at a gas station the other week.

He seemed fine, just a little stiff.

I met Wanderla Silva and Wadum(Knocked out Gonzaga). Nicest guys.
What do you mean by Evan Tanner seemed Stiff?

I met Tim Sylvia and Rich Franklin during a PR tour for them while I was overseas.

Time Sylvia is just HUGE, RF had his trademark black eye. Both were really nice.

This is a stupid thread, but I have trained under Jorge Rivera, who is pretty much the sweetest guy. He doesn't have a mean bone in his body, and he really likes jabbing people in the face and making himself impossible to hit at all in any way.

Also his Jiu-jitsu is fast improving, and his cardio is a fucking weapon. Also, I'm fat and out of shape.

I used to train with David Hood. I've met Jason Delucia quite a few times. I used to see Kenny Florian around Sityodtong at least once a week in 2005-6.

Not fighters, but I also know trainers Phil Nurse (of Greasegate fame) and Mark DelaGrotte.

Sorry I mispelled Wherdum. I know somebody who trained in Militech camp and trained with Tim Sylvia and he said he was a jerk. In fact he said most the guys there were jerks.

Were you at Parliment, or trapped in his house while he shouted "Perkele Vittu!" while pointing a gun at the police?
