(letting that sink in)
i didnt watch the series but i watched the finale and apparently he came across really well on the show and won with a landslide of the public vote.
Would it be a good idea for the UFC to sign him?
like it or not, he is the most popular mma fighter in britain by far.
he isnt a very good fighter. he isnt that bad though. yes i know he has lost his last 6 fights...
and his best result was a draw with 10-18 Daijro Matsui!
but UFC recently picked up Elvis Sinosic and Kimbo ffs!
he has such a huge exposure, i think this would help boost the popularity of mma in the uk if handled well.
thoughts?
