The UGgies: Best of 2009

All good winners; good choices.

I thought Thomson vs Melendez would win. 

So which Comedy Gif (Unedited) actually won?
The picture shows the Buffer 360, but the list says Gabe Gonzaga's High 5s.

 

lol @ takaya/tokoro not on the FOTY list

edit: holy smokes NOR bibiano/takaya?? :P

Wow, thanks to everyone who voted for me as reporter of the year. This is probably the coolest thing I have ever won (and one of the only things, but whatever).

That's amazing. I really, really appreciate it.

 good job guys!!

 Marc Ratner is sooooo cute=)



And Ariel, you winning was a given considering your work this past year.

DamonMMAWeekly - Big thanks from everyone on the Underground for voting MMAWeekly.com the News Site of the Year for the 2nd year in a row!



Most of you know that Ryan Bennett was our founder and leader, and if it wasn't for him I wouldn't be in this business, so to see our hard work paying off and carrying on his legacy really does make me proud.



Thanks to all the UG'ers!!!!!

 All thanks are due to you guys.

Heartbroken Lee - Can I make a suggestion for next years UGgies?



I thought of it when I saw Layzie's name: Best Fan-Made MMA Highlight Reel...



With the amount of great highlight reel makers we have on the UG, I think that would be a really competitive category and whoever won it will have deserved. I think guys like Kahl and Layzie and Gengis Con and GY ought to get some proper recognition.


 That would create copyright issues unfortunately, for things that go beyond fair use.

ceiling_cat - I'm not sure what the man of the year criteria are, but I don't think Dana should get it. I think the award should go to someone who accomplished alot, but also, accomplished more than was expected. I would say Scott Coker is the clear choice for that award. He essential developed a major UFC competitor last year and managed to get Fedor to fight on a mainstream media card for free in the USA: IMPRESSIVE! Dana and the UFC always deliver but did they deliver any more than was expected? Sure they put on UFC 100, and sure Dana is everywhere, but they had those things coming for years and none of it is a big surprise. Furthermore, UFC has kinda disapointed this year: Shogun vs Machida and judging controversy, 10000000000 injuries, TUF 10 w/ Kimbo and no Page/Suga. Lots of that isn't their fault but they didn't have the best year. I think Scott Coker and Strikeforce definitely had the bigger year and definitely delivered more to MMA fans, and more than anyone expected.


The UnderGround Man of the year is bestowed by the members of this online community on the person, persons, or thing that had the greatest impact on the sport in the previous year.

I was at the Diego/Clay fight.

Unreal.

 WOW dude, did you just put me in the same category as Genghis? That's a serious honor, believe me!!

Thanks so much for the love, and I hope you guys like my upcoming work as well :-)!!!
