It'll be Jim Carrey. lol. Yeah I have a lot to catch up on. I wish all fighters did this. Get in touch to who they are and what they've gone through to get to where they are at.

I think the life story of Chael Sonnen would be much more interesting.

I would buy a ticket to see it if it hits theaters I want to see a movie based off of Rampage Jackson...which in my mind would be a flat out comedy.

I would definitely watch a movie about Rich Franklin I think he has one of the best stories in the game and is one of the greatest MWs of all time

They trained together in Ohio before they fought, so he might be.. not sure though.

Anderson Silva documentary "Like Water" debut occurred in April at the Tribeca Film festival. Any updates on when it is coming out or any new insight on this?
Would love to know when it comes out. I'd love to watch all the fighters documentaries there is.

If there was a film about Rampage, the leading role would have to be either Chris Rock or Morgan Freeman.

Brett Rogers film would totally have Chris Brown as the leading role. No doubt.
