Spot picker?
His fight card includes:
David Backes
Anthony Steward
Adam Burish
Travis Moen
Sean Avery
Scott Hartnell
Scott Nichol
Matt Barnaby
Kevin Bieksa
All guys who are noted fighters or have a significant size advantage over him.
Sure he's fought some guys who don't fight much like Crosby and Stillman but there are unique circumstances there. Crosby was looking for it and the Stillman fight was a Flames induced brawl in the finals if i recall, things that the 2004 Flames were famous for, bullying was part of their identity.
I mean even Iggy fought some non fighters before, see Adam Henrique. Does that make Iggy a spot picker?
