Is Stephan Bonnar still in the UFC hall of fame?

[blaseblase]

Yes, he was. In 2013.

TS has a point. Have no idea why they took him out.

For his fight with Forrest Griffin. Bonnar is not in the HoF individually. His fight is. Similar to Chael Sonnen.

Hilarious when Bonnar mentioned in that speech about watching UFC fights on a "cheater box" for free.

 

[Marko Polo]

I completely forgot he died . . .

Sucks man

He isn't but his fight with is Forrest is, it is really impressive when a fighter is in and has a fight in too like Matt Hughes, Mark Coleman, Forrest Griffin
& Anderson Silva.... that they are in and they have a fight in also. Should put Dan Henderson in.

Straight up..

I’ve never heard of anybody being removed from a legit HOF. It may have happened at one time or another. But I’m not aware of it.

who cares about hof anymore, its dana white's best friends list on snapchat at this point.

Yea, Bonnar individually WAS in it though..

Only in the beginning. They changed it shortly after. Thats the whole reason the "Fight wing" exists.

 

[ferrisjso]

Mandela effect. Now we will never know if bonnar truly was in the hof or just his fight. Is Forrest in the hall as a fighter?

He was in the very beginning. They backpedaled to his fight with Forrest being in when they realized they could not justify putting Bonnar in the HOF as an individual.

How long before Daner makes the PowerSlap wing for the HOF?

[El Fernas]

Do they remove people? Seems like a weird thing to do, very.

No, I don't think he ever was, just the fight with Forrest. He never even fought for the LHW belt was basically a 50/50 fighter in the UFC.

No disrepect to Bonnar (RIP). He had a much better career that most people who attempt MMA and don't even make it to the UFC. But it would be a travesty if he was in the HoF as an individual fighter. Fortunately, he never was.
