The UFC should induct Big John McCarthy to the Hall of Fame

So yeah, it's official. Big John's final match was the Roger Huerta - Clay Guida war at the TUF 6 Finale.

Big John McCarthy has been one of the faces of the UFC. He has been calling bouts since UFC 2, he's been there in the old Superfights, the old UFC openweight tournaments and so on. And from then on he's been a part of the Octagon itself.

With that being said, I definitely think Big John deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. BJM has done so much for the sport and him doesn't getting inducted in the UFC-HOF is a big joke. He reffed big fights, in fact.. he called the shots for all the main event bouts since UFC 2 to UFC 31. He has been then known as the ninth side of the octagon.. known for the infamous line "Let's get it on!" to officially start the fight.

I hope he gets inducted in the Hall of Fame. I hope he gets a proper exit at UFC 79.

'Til then Big John.. LET'S GET IT ON!
