If you look at the current champions (Anderson Silva, GSP, BJ Penn).. they are all fighters who are very well rounded, and not just brawlers like Kimbo. I think that shows to the world that if you wanna be on top, you need to be more than just a back alley bully.
I think most fans, in general, appreciate a fighter like GSP over someone like Kimbo.
