Default Greatest Athletes on MMA/UFC fighters...

Do you think it's about time to have an MMA/UFC fighters on the list of "the greatest athletes"?
For I think YES! it's abotu time to give credit to some MMA fighters, I saw ESPN has a contest called "Who's Now" a contest where people can nominate their greatest athletes.

For me if the is one guy who will be included in that list from MMA, it should be Randy Couture and no one else, let us nominate him! He really deserve to be one.
What do you think guys?

ignorant f**king americans don't know jack squat about sports. there are at least 10 footballers i could name who could come before LaDainian Tomlinson or kobe bryant or sidney crosby or steve nash or maria sharapova.

they don't wanna talk about sports. they wanna talk about THEIR sports... and the people THEY know in THEIR country and media. it's a f**kin shame...

don't get me wrong, i agree and see your point, but how interesting do you think the article would be if they started listing a bunch of people their readers did not know. bottom line they just want to sell magazines. but they should have at least said top american athletes
