"Lord Kong". That's what they call Don'Tale Mayes, and is part of the UFC heavyweight division's deep end, fighting out of the United States — 20 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.
The record shows a bit of everything: knockouts (6), submissions (1), decisions (4). Well-rounded is an overused word; here it's just accurate. Add a 81" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.
The last fight went to Thomas Petersen (Decision - Unanimous) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
