Amazing how DC became such a legend. Imagine starting your MMA career at an age where some fighters retire, fighting heavyweights when you're as tall as featherweights, then going to 205 so you don't take opportunities from your friend, and becoming a double champ dominating every fighter on your way (who isn't drugged up on juice and coke) until you're in your 40!

9 mins in when DC said his biggest fear was seeing his son’s face when he told him he didn’t win the rematch against Jones.. that’s heart breaking. DC, I know you’ll never read this, but I hope you know your son is extremely lucky to have a guy like you for a dad, and you are one of the best and most inspirational fighters of all time. You don’t have to win every fight to be a winner and a champion. You are one of the best! Your son will only ever be proud to call you Dad.
