    Love DJ. Will be solely missed when he does retire. Not just one of the best to ever do it. His submission of Ray Borg is still one of, if not the best set-up and submission in MMA history. Also, what a stand-up guy. Always comes across as humble and decent. The UFC really missed the boat with this guy. They should have really pushed his background and what he went through growing up. Would have been a bigger star. Still, I feel DJ has actually made himself a bigger star since leaving. A part of me would still like to see DJ compete in PFL and Bellator to get the belts and complete the 'set'.

    It may not be as popular an opinion these days but I still maintain DJ is the GOAT.

He never gives you the same guy you've been watching on film, his fight IQ is insane and he has some amazing finishes, suplex to flying armbar, and some matrix hit right there. Cheers for the memories MM, a true, humble legend of our sport, the greatest in my eyes.
