Brian Stann and the UFC

 The UFC has to be loving this guy win fights! He has won 5 of his last 6 and is the perfect person to push as a poster of the UFC. He is a good fighter, he is smart, and is very humble.



A former Marine Captain who played football for Navy and a hardened combat vet. He was awarded the Silver Star which is the 3rd highest award a service member can be awarded for valor in the face of the eneny. 



This is a walking, talking, hero, and if not enough yet, the UFC need to put big time hype into Brian.

 

And he's with Emperor Jackson. Phone Post

 He's a good spokesman/representative. He's got some holes he has to fill in his game for sure.

 I will agree, his game is not perfect, nor are most fighters, but he left the Marine Corps in 2008, so thats a max of 3 years he has been able to train consistently and full time? He will get better

Stann did great last night. I want to see Stann vs Bisping Phone Post

 GO NAVY


He was very humble and respectful of Wanderlei even when Silva declined to fight him. Phone Post

Stann is one of the most intense dudes ever. He has a constant mean face fighting.

I am a fan after seeing him knock out the incredibly tough Chris Leben....I think another 3 more convincing wins against higher notch competitors and they will give him a title shot

The main thing about Stann is how much more fluid he has become. In the WEC he was a mess...but had a shitload of power to make up for it. Now the guy looks like a totally different fighter. I think he's one of the most improved fighters of the last few years.

 Semper fi

Been a fan since WEC... Wish he would get to fight Bisping next, Stann would destroy him Phone Post

One more good one and he's probably next in line. Because, there is no one left, and Leben was ranked 10-15, and Santiago was ranked top 5 or 6. He'll probably get the winner of Maia v. Munoz and assuming he wins, he'll get the title shot.

Stann continues to improve and hopefully he will notch a win over an elite wrestler

Agreed. I'm not usually a fan of the military-man type shizz, but he seems like a real humble and talented guy. He is way better face of the UFC than someone like Lesnar and Bisping imo.

Now that MMA has become a sport that even kids watch and play, it is nice to have a guy that kids can look at and try to emulate. I am not a big fan of kids using sports stars as heroes, but let's face it, it is going to happen. Its nice to see someone who doesn't come off as a totally immature idiot in there.

Hard to not like the guy. Phone Post

I wasn't a big fan of his in the WEC but he has changed my mind lately. He keeps getting better with every fight

The UFC must love him

Brian Stann's intensity and love of country makes me fucking proud to be an American. A flawed country like everywhere else, but the baddest of the bunch.

He has come a long way since WEC and hes a smart guy that will see amazing improvement in the next few years.
