Very interesting article on JDS and his overtraining and fighting with injuries. Hopefully he's learned his lesson.

Unfortunately, Super Samoans aren't great for your health either ;)

I wouldn't say nearly died, it's not like he was in the hospital on a ******* respirator..... he had a condition that could become life threatening if not treated properly. I'm not surprised he was pissing brown after the beating he took..... All that said i think JDS will TKO Hunt and get his rematch with Cain.
