The mixed martial arts community mourned the death of a legend Thursday night. Former UFC heavyweight champion Kevin Randleman passed away at age 44, exiting this world far too soon after suffering from heart failure.

Randleman leaves behind a family that includes his wife, Elizabeth, and three children, as well as a legacy that is highlighted by several of the most fabled moments in the annals of this young sport. On Thursday, the community took time to remember those moments, as well as the man that many called friend.

Kevin my friend , my sorrows swell and my heart sinks as the sun sets on our journey.
