Here is an ordered list of the 15 current UFC Welterweights that have been with the company the longest. (No Amateur TUF debut dates are counted). Do any names surprise you? Do the lengths of any of their careers based on their styles surprise you? (Lawler fighting at UFC level for literally nearly 20 years is insane to me). Who from this list do you think will be the last to still be fighting for the UFC? I honestly think that Sanchez, Maia, Brown, Condit, and Woodley's next fights will be their last in the organization. Let me know what you make of the list or my thoughts on it.


#1 Robbie Lawler.  Debut: 5/10/2002
#2 Diego Sanchez. Debut: 4/9/2005
#3 Nate Diaz. Debut: 6/23/2007
#4 Demian Maia. Debut: 10/20/2007
#5 Matt Brown. Debut: 6/20/2008
#6 Carlos Condit. Debut: 4/1/2009
#7 Court McGee. Debut: 6/19/2010
#8 Tim Means. Debut: 2/15/2012
#9 Siyar Bahadurzada. Debut: 4/14/2012
#10 Michael Chiesa. Debut: 6/1/2012
#11 Gunnar Nelson. Debut: 9/29/2012
#12 Tyron Woodley. Debut: 2/2/2013 
#13 Neil Magny. Debut: 2/23/2013

#14 Jorge Masvidal. Debut: 4/20/2013
#15 James Krause. Debut: 6/15/2013

I've heard a rumour that Robbie Lawler will be fighting for the UFC Welterweight Title against Kamaru Usman's grandson in the main event of UFC 1759.

Fantastic Stephen, love it! Lawler with a God beard looks so fitting. No wonder he has such longevity!

I can fully imagine Lawler with a long beard when he's older!

T Wood hasn't re-signed with the UFC and Diego Sanchez has been released so they both lose their spots.

Somehow my dopey ass forgot Wonderboy (my #1 or #2 favorite active WW mind you) while making this list, so he slides (with supreme footwork) in at #7 with the removal of Sanchez and a debut of 2/4/2012. Also making his debut to this list at #15 is Li Jingliang with a UFC debut date of 5/24/2014

I'd forgotten I'd made that lol! I just found those 4 pictures on Google images and mashed them together and put some text over the top. It took all of about 15 mins of messing around in PowerPoint to do lol!

The Shoop MOD said that
I should be the winner ...  
but it is what it is ...   ! 

For example :
On my AV, in the original gif 
the wolf was eating a whole pack of snacks 
and i shooped the flames, it took 5-6h 
in the making ... ! 

Thanks man for everything ... 
for the help and support since the beginning...  ! 
( a few days ago, i took my One Year Aworrd on Tap )

Wow, I can't believe it's been a whole year already! As for the GIFs, that poster I made is the limit of my shooping abilities so I can't imagine how hard it is to make gifs!
