Nobody in a position to know has said anything of the kind, so if you "heard something" about this it was almost certainly some idiot speculating.

It's from the interview GSP did with Helwani. GSP said that he felt the negotiations with Fertitta were all but finalised but when the ownership change occurred the new owners took it all off the table. He also said one of the reasons they gave was that they would have to spend money remarketing GSP as his time away would have lead to him being forgotten and new fans not knowing who he was.

No one has openly said anything either, but GSP is represented by CCA who, apparently, have a very rocky relationship with WME-IMG.

Artem would run you over with his patented walk forward and swing his arms around like a little Russian windmill technique.

At some point we should really stop talking about Artem's terrible roll, and start talking about the punch that opens him up for the bodylock, because christ.

lmao, but also, here's a crazy thought, the Ronda Rousey of old would beat the everliving gently caress out of the women's bantam and strawweight divisions of yesterday.

no.

Every. single. one. that walks out with their hoodie zipped up has troubles getting it off. I don't know what's going through a UFC fighters head as they walk out of the wardrobe to the prep point, but I'm pretty sure that driving a big fat spike of "WTF is going on with this zipper?" through it isn't good for your mindset for the fight.

The Travis Browne of today would beat the everliving gently caress out of the heavyweights of yesterday, makes you think. hosed up, but true.

Bill Burr had a great podcast with Joe Rogan recently, kinda to plug Rogan's new special.

And Rogan's new special on netflix is actually pretty good. The last time I watched Rogan's act, it was booked at the same casino a UFC event had just happened and Dana White was watching from a box so it was like "let's let our announcer imagine he still has his comedy career", this wasn't anything like that.

Rocky Mountain High was also good. Rogan's last 2 one hour specials have both been great.

She had the Marsellus Wallace plan - "In The 5th my rear end goes down."

The problem was there was a translation error. Betche thought she had to COUNT TO FIVE, then go down.
