Yup.He seemed like a tormented soul, but he was tough as nails and never quit unless he was knocked out. A sad day for MMA!
Yeah, I was sort of surprised by that as well. I've hung out in Vegas when it was ~110-115 and dry heat really isn't that bad. I guess maybe water was the issue? Who knows, as others have said Tanner was a messed up guy.I wonder how it happened exactly. I am actually from the Imperial Valley, so I know first hand about the heat there and it really wouldn't kill someone that easily specially with equipment. He had to have gotten sick somehow.
It must have been very painfull though. Too bad, he seemed like a revolutionary.
I hope you're right. I hope he died at peace with life, but I think he had a lot of demons that still existed. He did seem happier towards the last few years, according to his blogs.There are some great articles out there on this. One on UFC and one on Yahoo in particular. I actually don't think he was a tormented soul towards the end of his life. I think he went through a rough patch, but it looked obvious at the end of his life that he just enjoyed being in nature. He was definetly and odd character, but he just seemed like he'd be so cool to hang out with and that he'd invited along or over to his house just for fun.
Sometimes I feel like his minimalists attitude is the right way to go. Screw all this congestion and stepping on others to get more things in life. I think Evan had it right and he will be missed in the MMA community and even moreso by his friends and family.
Truth. The news was shocking to me though.Only cowards fear death.
