I'm in agreement with pretty much everyone on here when I say that was great first round.  That fella has some nasty wrestling and you nullified it, showing a lot of strength in your clinch game and obvious dominance on the ground.  I don't know you personally, but based on the opinions and words of my teammates Dan and Bobby, I'd expect to see you back and more determined than ever. 

[TheTrain]

Why would the UFC pick up his medical tab? 

Friggin Piggy. Always looking. For a handout.

[Letmbleed]

Dan, I have so much respect for you.  You got caught, which sucks, but you looked good, you put in on the line, and you carried yourself well.  Man, I love the fact that you weren't acting like a badass, trying to show how tough you were.  You were relaxed, and calm.  You were very Jiu-Jitsu.  It sucks that it ended the way it did, but I can assure you that you have nothing to be ashamed of.

Dan,

I'm a big fan of yours and was upset that you got hurt in your fight.  You clearly won the first round.

If you choose to pursue MMA, I hope you have the chance to show everyone how good you are.

ONE question, was it the first punch that actually broke the jaw OR was it the 3 hard shots (the stupid fucking ref) you took on the ground before it was stopped? 

Hope you heal up fast...and come compete in the BLACK FLY!

The UFC did pick up the tab for the injuries, they didnt have too but they did and I was greatful for that.

As for the punch, the original broke the left side of my jaw , the next to broke in two spots on the other side. The jaw broke on both sides at the wisdom teeth and on hte right side by the hinge. Sucked but it happens. Thanks for the good words.

100% correct

Dan is a great guy and a good friend. He and I worked together for two years and quit on the same day. While I’m still behind a desk Dan has established a successful BJJ school and has dedicated himself to competing in MMA and BJJ full time. He is living his dream and it takes a lot of guts to do something like that. I think it would take a lot more than a broken jaw to keep him from fighting again. Serra guys have a nasty habit of coming back from tough losses and I don’t think Dan will be any different. I would offer you good luck in the future but I don’t think you really need it.

1000% correct.

And usually, the shows have insurance that covers inuries that happen while fighting in the event.  In Florida, it's mandatory.

[phenomphan]

Very good effort.  I thought you won the first round.

[TheTrain]

Hopefully you will stay off the mat and heal up. That has got to hurt. But you'll come back stronger.

I think Herb Dean was way late in stopping the fight. 3 shots on the ground when
Dan was out on the punch from the feet?  That made me angry to see him allow Dan to get hit like that.

And to be honest, I was way more creeped out by the beard than I was by the punch. Beards creep me out.

[Dutchmaster]

anybody  who knos dan knows hes a tough mother f#cker and will bounce back better than ever (I believe he already competed in t e pan ams).
Dan was winning the first round, and i believe he would have won the fibght if not for  a lucky shot.Ive competed against bot guys in jits and i definately believe dan is on a much higher level on the ground.Riddle has great takedowns.Neither guy is knwn for great standup.

TTT for Riddle/Simmler 2!!

[JAGMD]

I thought he looked really good in the first round.  I felt he looked more skilled than a number of guys that made it into the house.  It kind of seemed that the first round went so well for him that he came out a little too relaxed in the 2nd and that's when he got caught.  I could be wrong, but that was the impression I got watching the fight.  Anyways, good fight Dan.  If you choose to continue with MMA, I think you'll have a bright future in it.  I know a little of what you went through.  I had surgery to correct my sleep apnea 9 weeks ago.  They broke my jaw in 4 places (upper and lower jaw both sides) and advanced it forward.  I was wired for 5 weeks, and I'm just getting back training these last 2 weeks.

[kebam]

will he change his nickname to 300?

[danielson]

ML--You did a great job man, I had you winning that fight. Tough break but good showing.

[TOUCHSTONE]

Take your time and make sure your completely healed.

Best of Luck!
