The Fighter We'd Most Like to Have a Beer With

Welcome to our new weekly feature, "The Fighter We'd Most Like To..."! Each week, we will select a hypothetical situation where we would need one fighter to fill a very important role, such as the person we'd drag to the bar to have a beer with us. The contributors will each name the fighter they'd choose and then attempt to justify their selection. We will choose one extremely interesting scenario every week and welcome comments from readers to tell us what their choice would be and why. Rest assured, we won't choose anything too scandalous or inappropriate (sorry?), but will try to keep in interesting. So, let's get to our first one...The Fighter We'd Most Like to Have a Beer With.

Beth:  Easy peasy. Amir Sadollah. I'm so much more delightful after I've had a couple of beers, thereby increasing my chances that he'll sweep me away to travel around the world with him.  

Donna:  Forrest Griffin. I imagine that he'd be filled with folksy wisdom and dirty jokes, interspersed with some of the most epic beer burps ever burped. Oh, and as a final treat he'd crush the beer can against his forehead when finished. Sigh...

Jackie: I've actually said this for awhile: Matt Serra. We could have a few beers, start to get a little tipsy, and he'd tell hilarious and embarrassing stories about Matt Hughes from their season coaching TUF together. Awesome!

Kat: This one is way too easy for me: Chael Sonnen for sure. He tells the most delightful stories so I know I would be entertained, and the conversation would flow so smoothly (him talking, me drinking) that I would end up getting really drunk and I would start to believe everything he said. For example, I saw his fight against Anderson Silva and I know he lost that fight but I really think that after one night of drinking and listening to Chael talk, I would be calling all my friends the next day and proclaiming, "As God as my witness, Chael Sonnen won that fight! Because triangles don't count!".

Midge: I despise beer like Brock Lesnar despises getting hit in the face. The smell, let alone the taste, makes me cringe, gag, and inch towards the fetal position...however, if Marloes Coenen asked me to get a beer with her I would be hard pressed to say no. Marloes has that double threat to make you do ANYTHING. First she can bust out those big blues and lure you into doing anything like a cute little girl going "pleeeeeease". If that fails, she can twist you into submitting to her will. If my sweet Marloes wanted to get a beer, then a beer we would get.

What do you think? Who would you choose to have a beer with? We'd love to hear about it!
