Sanchez recently agreed to a sponsorship opportunity with Instant Knockout Fat Burner and said that when he started using the product, he suddenly realized dropping to 145 pounds was a real possibility

So the Mark Hunt rollercoaster is due to start soon, I hope you're all ready for the various mood swings, depressing interviews, crises of faith, requests for a 275lb limit, delirious statements due to dehydration, dramatic retirements and then retractions once he's had some bread, and hopefully a fight at the end of it

multiply that by about a hundred

he showed his hundred million dollar cheque to kevin iole but wouldn't let him touch it. and that's not even counting front end or back end monies. they passed 500k buys before the card even started, and hbo had to stall for time because they had a backlog of buy requests. just absolutely insane money.

Things THat Make You Go Hmm:

quote:

If they come test me for my fight with Weidman, they have to go test Weidman as well on the same date, same time. That’s an equal system. It has to be fair. It’s not fair that they test me seven times and only test him once.

- Vitor Belfort, March 5th

quote:

May 23 rapidly approaching, Chris Weidman told me that he has been randomly tested by the Nevada Athletic Commission four times leading up to this fight with Vitor Belfort. Two times urine, two times blood. I asked Nevada, ‘How many times have you randomly tested Vitor Belfort?’

They deferred me to the UFC, who then deferred me back to Nevada. I asked Vitor; he wouldn’t respond. So I know that Chris has been tested four times; I don’t know how many times Vitor has been.

- Ariel Helwani, May 2nd

he's coming back because bloodsports are the only way for a guy who's had a taste of the good life to keep making lots of money with convictions and an unfinished community college education. well i mean there's drug dealing but he's maybe not the best guy at staying out of trouble.

Everyone here hates Fedor. Which is fine by me, but he was probably the best fighter around for a while. I know people like to pretend that he wasn't fighting legit competition, but before the UFC he was fighting the best (and freakshows because it paid) around. Hendo knocking him out is in my top five fighting moments in history though, so I'm in no way a weirdo about him. He was fun to watch for a very long time, a long time ago.

he was both the best heavyweight for several years and also spent years comically ducking even mild competition and extorting promoters to fight cans. he was incredibly bold faced about it but there was this constructed narrative that he was too pure a soul to possibly do that and now he gives interviews on tv saying every country in the world except russia is fascist

I think Hunt's chin is going and even though he's done an excellent job of defying all logic so far, he has to start slowing down at some point. However I hope he punches Stipe so hard and perfectly that he falls face first through the middle of the canvas and emerges in Ohio.

"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.
