MMA Mania Picks DiCaprio's Best Role In Open Thread

MMA Mania ran its weekly open thread Thursday asking readers to name Leonardo DiCaprio's best film role, mixing entertainment talk with fight coverage between major UFC cards.

The thread, posted by Tim Edwards, also featured a sumo bout between Takerufuji and Fujiryoga and a college trivia question. Edwards noted the site missed DiCaprio's birthday but wanted to poll fans on the actor's strongest work.
