Let's make this birthday one to remember.

43 years old (Born on July 06, 1981)

Hey Mike, Happy Birthday to everyone's favorite lightweight warrior! From your lightning moves on "The Ultimate Fighter: Live" that left opponents dizzy and cameramen struggling to keep up, you've truly given us moments worthy of highlight reels—and memes.

May this birthday bring you more success than the number of punches thrown in all your thrilling rounds combined. Keep delivering knockouts—in and out of the octagon—and remember, age is just a silly little ankle lock trying (and failing) to slow down an unstoppable force like you. Cheers for another year filled with victories both spectacular and hilarious!
