Hunt > Struve > Stipe > Hunt > Struve > Stipe > Hunt ...

I mentioned it in the GDT but Stipe, Hunt, Struve, Nelson and JdS have all fought one another at this point, which is the biggest fully connected graph of UFC fighters that I can think of (if Overeem fights JdS and Stipe, we could add him to it as well).

For the record:

JdS: 4-0
Hunt: 2-2
Stipe: 2-2
Nelson: 1-3
Struve: 1-3

quote:

"I looked in his eyes just to tell him, 'I will kick your rear end,'" Barao said through an interpreter in a recent media scrum. "I don't like him, because he talks a lot of sh*t. He's not a champion -- he's a joker."

[...]

"T.J. Dillashaw had one defense of the title and he thinks he's the best champion in the world," Barao said.

[...]

"He said I'm not fast," Barao said. "He said I have problems cutting weight. It's my personal life. He's not a champion, because you have to concentrate on his career, not my career.

dont you think Stipe was punching the poo poo out of him that led to that? I remember some punches in the first that would have knocked most people out. Hunt just is too tough for his own good.

hunt has given us an awesome career I wouldnt be sad to see him go after this - no "tune up fight" is worth more brain damage. 20 years of combat sports and he needs to go out on his shield an d be happy he is alive.

That is not what "go out on your shield" means, though. It's like the exact opposite actually.

Yeah, but to clarify, the statement is "come back with your shield, or on it." To go out on your shield = you died and you're being carried home on your shield. To come back without your shield = you dropped it and ran away.

That's actually an excerpt from her book, which I believe goes on sale tomorrow. As such it's probably mostly ghost written by her sister. Great read though.
The NY Post has a pretty good write-up on the book here: http://nypost.com/2015/05/10/ronda-rousey-on-her-fathers-suicide-and-mothers-tough-love/

quote:

Inspired, Rousey took up judo, and her mom became her first coach. Here, from the book, is a typical interaction while training:

“I hurt my toe,” I said. “I think it’s broken.”

“It’s a toe,” she said dismissively.

“But it hurts,” I said, crying. “Do you have a pillow for me?”

“What the f- -k do you mean a pillow?” she asked. “Go run laps.”

I hobbled away, more hopping than running.

“I said ‘run laps,’ not ‘hop laps,’ ” my mom said. “Run.”

quote:

Her life fell into chaos. Rousey still competed and would take the bronze in the 2008 Olympics, but her relationship with her mom was rocky.

All that discipline felt suffocating, and she wanted a year off, as she writes, “to party.”

Her $10,000 prize money ran out quickly, and she got a job bartending at a theme place in Los Angeles.

Rousey began smoking and drinking heavily, often beginning her day with a cigarette and a vodka espresso. She developed a pot-and-Vicodin habit. She’d sleep in her car, and when she did find an apartment, all she could afford was a 12-by-12-foot studio.

“On more than one occasion,” she writes, “sewage would come up out of the toilet and shower, and I’d come home from work to an apartment filled with s- -t. I didn’t think I could get any lower.”

In related news, Aguilar apparently announced that she's been released from her WSOF contract, so I'm guessing she'll be in the UFC pretty soon.

"Going out on your shield" means going out fighting in a defeat, it has nothing to do with a ritual sacrifice or any other weird poo poo you're thinking of.

"Going out on the shield" is a ref to staying home and watching marvels agents of shield instead of hitting the town, similar to a staycation.

i remember when cotto was getting furiously murdered by margarito (who ended up having illegally wrapped hands) and his corner threw in the towel. and boxing posters were complaining about how his corner should have let him go out on his shield, and continue fighting until he was completely incapacitated, like this was his last shot at glory. dude was 27.

When Margarito stalks him across the ring and then Cotto just goes down to a knee without getting hit is one of the craziest things.
