Hermes Franca retires
- Thread starter Nastycrow
- Start date
Man, I remember just a few years ago that this guy was at the top of the LW division, and was thought to biggest threat to BJ Penn. He has such a high level of jiu jitsu and throws big haymakers. As much as I respected Hermes, I'm not sad to see him go. After his last couple of fights he's become irrelevant. I would say it was a good time for him to retire. :|
Yes he can but Hermes is like Penn and doesn't like to train and would really on his skills to win fights. I remember watching his preview show vs Sherk and he did no cardio work at all as far as I can remember, all I saw was him training people rolling around in his gi.
Im sure Hermes could still fight at a UFC level if he really wanted to.

true, there is alot of examples about this in alot of sports, baseball, football, the wrestlerts from WWE and TNT type of promotions ( i hope Lashley and Lesnar dont suffers from this, altough Lesnar is alredy in big health trouble), and others in MMA, definity the steroids are bad for you in the long run

Dude, Shut the f--- up. There is no proof that either of them have taken steroids, so until you can prove so leave your stupid allegations out of this forum.

And as the Doc pointed out this week zero evidence that roids could have caused what Brock is going through right now. Hes a big meathead, doesnt mean hes artificially enhanced.

LOL. What insults and false accusations? I never insulted you, and i wasn't accusing you of making false accusations. You said that you hoped Lesnar a Lashley didn't have any health problems due to their steroid use. :roll:

"Dude, Shut the f**k up." Thats an insult to me
" leave your stupid allegations out of this forum."
thats a false accusation from your part, in fact you are right in this post, i still hope there is not any failed or story about steroids on Lashley and Lesnar in the future and thats why i make that comment, is a diferent thing to make a clear acusation of telling that both figthers are past steroids users, so there you go, two clear insults and a clear false accusation from your part that are allowed

OK, ranch. I didn't expect you to take it so personally. I'm sorry. But when you say stuff like about the WWE and TNT and then go on to say that you hope Lesnar and Lashley dont suffer health problems from this (in this you meant steroids) then you are clearly accusing them of taking steroids.
this thread went downhill fast
Glad to see Franca knows when it's time to retire though. I really wonder what's going to happen to guys like Chuck Lidell, Randy Couture, Mark Coleman, etc etc when they start to get into their mid 50s or early 60s. I have a feeling it wont be pretty. Some atheletes have a hard time admitting when it's over, when you make that mistake with MMA it can and most likely will cause a lot of problems for you later in life.
