The American Kid?

Great Head Kick.

Horrible, horrible nickname

I believe he got that nickname because he is the one American to train at team Nogueira? I'm not 100% sure but if that's the case I don't think it's that bad given the circumstances. Phone Post

Well, in that case it has a reason, but still awful.

Im talking "the people's warrior" awful

For some reason i just find the guy annoying, his mannerisms, his dad recording every practice he's ever been in, the nickname just contributes to the situation.

 Better than being called The Gringo

I just get the impression that's what everyone calls him at his gym. Black House, I think.

"Who's that?"

That's the American kid."



First heard it and thought it was terrible. Then reflected.

Gotta agree -- don't like this dude at all.<br><br>I was similarly bummed by how annoying I found Jury. Absolutely loved his standup, hated everything about his post-fight speech. <img src="/images/phone/apple.png" alt="Phone Post" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;"/>



Team fury in the house whazzzup.

Straight up.

 When the name is explained with the blackhouse thing that makes SO much more sense. And it actually makes it kind of cool in a way. Hell if Nog called me "that american piece of shit" I'd go with it. I bet it sounds better in portugese though.

There are two nicknames in MMA tied for the absolute worst and they both belong to Justin Mccully.

He trains at a Black House affiliate in Montana, not so sure he is training on a regular basis with black house pro fighters.

Agreed.....Joe Lauzon now has some competition for worst nickname in MMA

What the hell was wrong with his post fight speech??? Phone Post

NONURINAUMANA - NPD can suck my balls. All that 'man upstairs' thanking is retarded. This isn't MTV awards. Agree with other posters that Lawrence appears somewhat corny, with the JBJ tattoo and cereal box nickname. His fighting is great to watch but leave politics and religion out of the cage.
Boo hoo get over it. Phone Post

NarlyPersianDude - what the fuck is wrong with you guys, his mannerisms is just who he is. Do you think you are perfect, the fact that his Dad recording his practices offends you, makes me think you are pretty lame.


And you also are annoyed by Miles Jury? That dude is cool as shit, what is up with some of you. Just baffling
Called an opinion. Don't cry so much buddy. Phone Post
Npd, while constantly flooding the ug with his own opinions, cannot handle it when some one offers a different opinion.

Its a character flaw Phone Post
