GSP lost to Fat Serra, Anderson lost to Fat Serra's protege, who then went on to be a joke like fat serra. MM and Jones haven't lost their belts in the ring and consistently fight the best opponents in their weight class.

mm ducked the best opponent available to him recently

stop the fucking fight, cornerman, your dude is fucking done and is about to be killed.
mm actually fought the most dangerous opponent available to him at the time. of tj dillashaw and dana white only one has career ending power and despite not being on a poster which literally didn't matter i consider it a ud for the still undefeated flyweight champ. can't wait til he fucks up garbrandt.

Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.
it goes jones, anderson, gsp, probably holloway or mcgregor if one of them defends a belt a couple of times.

This discussion where I explain why a 120 pound man who looks like a baby is the strongest fighter in history is NOT a popularity contest, to be decided by web forum posts and articles on deadspin dot com. I think a man who weighs as much as a baby horse or instagram butt model would have beat up chuck lidell.

Actually, the fight against an undefeated current belt holder was, apparently, unpromotable, but a fight with a guy who recently lost that belt was a big money fight that MM was a fool to turn down. All according to Dana White, who morphed into a paradigm of truth and honesty at some point.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

That's true, but when he whines about not being liked or pushed more despite being literally the most boring champ in history he can gently caress off

Also he started to pop off a bit in the 2nd round and opening up a bit and tricked me into thinking that he might actually put on a fun fight but nope, he went right back to his usual self

I agree though. I got super bored but the more I think about his last handful of fights the more I appreciate what he's doing. It gets dull after a round but I think the hate from Dana and friends is really dumb if understandable. Business is business. It reminds me of poo poo like the NBA trying to punish the Spurs for making boring tactical decisions that have kept them winning for a billion years. There's an element of the Tyron style that is fun to watch because no one is imposing their will on him.

I'm... a Woodley fan????? Is he problematic as a person or anything like that or is he a nice muscle boy?
