You sound like a Marc Laimon broken record.
Fact is that Rickson in BJJ circles is still considered one of the best, period.
You give him shit about fighting 2nd rate fighters in MMA, that's what he was given to fight. I've heard all kinds of reasons why didn't he fight Bas, from being scared (As you state), to not being offered the money he wants.
At the end of the day, we argue about it on a messageboard, and he's happy and content with what he's acomplished.
Though, the rumours are strong again, that he might fight again.
