If there's one thing Sapp is an expert at its showing up and getting paid, so I trust him when he talks about money.

For some reason, K-1 champion Takeru is in Colorado training with TJ Dillashaw. I don't know if Cody is getting an immediate rematch but I can guarantee he's not getting that quality of sparring

Maybe posting himself getting handled by Loma has got non-MMA strikers lining up like those dudes in Airplane.

So guys who're handily better than MMA fighters at striking.
I mean, sure you don't need belt holders in boxing and K-1 for that.

Lawler tends to lead with his face a lot, I think I'd pick Wonderboy as a more technical striker despite the horse stance karate (gently caress Woodley). 2nding Cerrone and adding Conduit

Thinking twice about it Bonnar must've attempted at least one, so maybe I heard that before UFC 100? I am sad to find out it wasn't true the way I remembered it because it seemed very perfect.

i like aldo and woodleys striking. woodley in particular. it depends what you mean by technique, like well rounded condit style or just effective and accurate or what.

They're not really like each other. Lawler has pretty solid in pocket defence for a crazy chin first brawler. Alvarez gets by primarily on enthusiasm.

He's been doing a fair bit of pro wrestling (as has Tom Lawlor) so I assumed he'd been released as well

If I recall correctly, isn't Tom Lawlor still being tested even though he is suspended? I think I remember him saying he still has to fill out those whereabouts forms so they can come find him whenever they want.
