Bjorn Rebney is dumber than hell. Today he said that they would "eventually" have to form a union, after they started bargaining with the UFC, the UFC would ask for it to give them an antitrust exemption and they would at that point deserve it as a courtesy. OK, but if you are not a union now, how will you get them to the bargaining table? By saying mean things about the UFC, thats how. They'll parade around old broken injured fighters and yell all kinds of nasty things about the UFC until they get tired of the negative PR and come to the table. That of course is not at all how it will play out because MMA is not this super-massive sport with exhaustive coverage on every angle like football or baseball. FOX will ignore them completely, the MMA media will cover their rants and press conferences for a while till they tire of it, and the UFC won't budge. They are going to waste a lot of time and effort before they realize they need to become a union first. By the time they get there, the effort will have soured on a lot of fighters who will no longer go along with it.

Dan Henderson is a known drug cheat who's lost all of his fights since he stopped cheating with drugs.

That may be, but unlike Jon he knows how to not get busted. Speaking of which, is the venue far enough from Jons house that he may have to drive? I remember the UFC footing the bill for Ubers and whatnot but I don't know how tight a ship Chael P Sonnen is running over at Submission Underground.

I.N.R.I posted:really good. in fact i think it could have gone either way and would have scored it for him All three rounds were so close that there's no way to have scored that fight (without 10-8s) which would have even been in the top 25% of bad scorecards of the year, and there's also no way to have scored it which wouldn't have resulted in a bunch of indignant shitposting. (the correct score was 29-27 Benevidez)

That's good to hear then because his fights up to his title fight were super lame but if he ends up being a top fighter in the division that's good.

I can imagine the kids crowding round for the Cowboy-Schilling gym wars soaking up all the wisdom for their pro careers. Ok, between rounds have a budweiser or at the very least one or two marlboro reds. Got it.

Dana was on ufc unfiltered and he says they offered Cyborg two 145 title fights, the first was turned down because she couldn't make the weight on 8 weeks notice and the second was turned down for less clear reasons. Now I know Dana considers the truth to be optional most of the time but it seems like a weird thing to lie about. The only thing I can think of is she is holding out for that elusive Ronda fight.

I'm going to say that the reasons they were turned down was that the UFC found someone who wasn't a: homeless vagrant woman, a soccer mum that weighs 125lbs soaking wet or Holly Holm, but she's not allowed to kick because of an old, undiscovered rule in the Brazilian commision's rulebook.

He also addressed the Conor thing saying he said he was going to have to give up one of the belts way in advance which I guess he did, don't really have a problem with that bit tbh. Still doesn't change the fact that they used dark magic to create an interim belt when Aldo seems pretty healthy and able to fight Anthony or Max right away.

You're actually on the money there. First one was Holly and the second one was De Randamie so yeah no hobos or soccer moms.

The funniest thing about that is that Cyborg still holds a considerable size advantage over either of those two, fairly large, women and could very easily beat either for a number of reasons.

I don't think it is unreasonable for Aldo not wanting to take Holloway or Pettis on short notice.

The fighters included are ones who have been scheduled for 5+ UFC fights between 2009 and 2016. Injuries are only counted for fighters who were booked for a fight, but had to pull out due to an injury. Alliance being the lowest is kind of amazing when you consider it includes Cruz.

Why would cyborg deal in chance when she's already got a legion of bloggers full of terrible opinions and dudes who absolutely love apartment wrestling whether they know it or not rocketing her up the p4p chart despite being the polar opposite of what the p4p rankings are supposed to be applauding.

I don't care about P4P at all, but she knocked Frankie Edgar out of the rankings, which is the dumbest loving thing I've ever heard. Also, apparently, those two proposed fights were to kick off a Featherweight division for her to crush cans in, so congrats to Cyborg on once again torpedoing her career out of sheer stupidity. In ten years, Holly Holm will be retired and Cyborg will start calling her a coward on VR-Reddit for refusing to fight her.

Frankie Edgar has won at least one fight clean and never been defeated by a deaf man's forehead, two things the GOAT Jon Jones can never claim.

Frankie also has the record for holding a belt 3 weight classes above his ideal fighting weight, if he did it the other way around like conor he might have ended up being a dominant flyweight/bantamweight double belt holder instead of nearly being beaten to death every first round of a lightweight title fight

Rankings don't pay the bills. She's pretty much said she's holding out for money fights, which she's stated consists of Rousey or any other top 135er, at 145 of course.
