I'm not certain why the transformation with Randy, but it seems to have started with his divorce & re-marriage to his current trophy wife. I don't know any details, so I can't so for sure, but Dana White (who's not exactly a super guy himself) said Randy's gotten a big head/ego and let his manager/agent talk him up. I definitely prefer the old "Team Quest" (aka Matt Lindland) persona. He's entitled to do as he pleases, but he's lost some (personality) standing with me with this new Hollywood/Bigshot persona (especially as I'm a country boy myself
). However, I still like him as a fighter & pull for him.
P.S. - In my single days, I was more of a honkey-tonk or sports bar guy, but I stopped frequenting those places after I was married (age 26). I try to be a good family man & Baptist these days.
