It's had me miserable ever since I found out at like 4 this morning. Only a few weeks ago it was even announced he had cancer. He's in the top 5 JMMA fighters ever in my opinion, and was a personal favourite of mine.

 

RIP KID.

 

 

I so wish he was signed with the UFC earlier in his career. He and BJ Penn would have been epic. It sucked watching him with UFC later in his career i remember when he signed i was so stocked but at the same time, i dreaded it.

Eh, I would've wished for the opposite actually as I'd have liked him to continue in Dream/K-1 but it is what it is. During his prime he was easily one of the best p4p in the world, especially in the lower weight-classes.

 

In the latest RIZIN Confessions episode his sister Miyuu is shown saying how KID wants to come back and fight on the same card as her, man it was a depressing watch...
