I'm going with the Reem. Certainly not just because of his MMA success, because that wouldn't do it alone, but his wins in K-1 and his 3 belts for the year have raised his stock maybe far beyond his true value, but soon we'll see.

Shit, I didn't even consider his K-1 performance... He really deserves that as "fighter" of the year, if not necesarrily "MMArtist" of the year.

Ok, Uru, I want to hear this. Sonnen for fighter of the year. Certainly the most publicized fighter of the year.

What are your reasons?

Everyone else get voting!

I honestly thought I was going to be alone with the Dominic Cruz vote, but I am shocked he is ahead at the time. I think he had the biggest impact in his division, along with the quietest rise to the top.

I just think he deserves some credit for how well he's been doing lately. No one really gave him a chance coming back into the UFC, especially after his fight with Maia.

But I can see where your skepticism comes from considering how anti-Sonnen you are.

one thing about Sonnen is that he can definately sell a fight and he can definately stir the pot

I hate the guy, but that doesn't preclude him from foty. I put him in there because he certainly has been the most talked about fighter of 2010. Love him or hate him, he hasn't let you ignore him.

As far as Im concerned there's only two choices in this Overeem and Edgar.
