Season one veteran of "The Ultimate Fighter", Nate Quarry is faced with possibly the hardest decision in his life. A professional mixed martial artist since 2001 when debuted in the sport with a TKO victory over Drew McFedries, Quarry eventually found his way into the ufc after his brief stint on the TUF show, where he was sidelined early in the season due to injury. He was invited back into the promotion and scored a TKO victory over fellow TUF veteran Lodune Sincaid at the season's finale show.

With my new running series “Great Moments in MMA History” well underway, I figured it would be an interesting idea to start another new series focusing on the exact opposite: some of the really bad stuff that have happened in the wide world of MMA. Whether it’s saddening, infuriating, or a case of “so bad it’s funny”, “Infamous Moments in MMA History” will look at moments in MMA that are memorable for the controversy they caused or the strong negative reaction they garnered. The inaugural edition features a fight that I’m sure absolutely no one will be surprised to see in a series like this. This single fight will likely haunt this fighter’s career for the rest of his life, and there’s even a popular MMA website based solely on his actions once this fight got underway. In quite possibly the worst case of an MMA fighter simply not wanting to fight, Kalib Starnes vs. Nate Quarry starts off “Infamous Moments in MMA History”. ...
