Imagine getting really excited because you believe your dad when he says he will definitely be at your big baseball game this weekend, bud, this time will be different. Except instead of being 8 you're a grown rear end man.

I didn't realize how much I missed Nate. One of my favorite fighters of all time (along with his brother).

Looking at his wiki profile, I counted 14 _____ of the night awards, including a stretch of 6 in a row earlier in his career.

the diaz brothers are amazing fighters to watch and fascinating people to follow, and they wouldn't be that way if they weren't the diaz brothers, but doing so comes with the inevitable disappointment of being reminded that at the end of the day they are the diaz brothers

Did y’all read the tweets? Definitely used gay slurs used as an insult, but he says “nigga” when referring to himself and buddies. Dumb yes, racist hell no.

As a brown dude I hate when people pile on to call someone a racist when there isn’t any proof. There are plenty real racists out there, and they don’t say “nigga”, no need to pile on Cody for using the slang that’s all over mainstream media and has been his entire life.

No I didn't but also I was referring to all celebrities not just that one

Some of the ones getting nailed in this storm of people digging through tweets from years ago lately were being racist so it was just a joke about it being extremely hard not to be - because, you know, sarcasm

I'm not loyal to anything, General... except the dream.
TMZ asked him and it sounds like he's still gonna' fight Dustin and also the dude asked him, "Do you want the winner (of Conor and Khabib)?" and he replied "I am the winner." so there you go.

It's still not great for him and his friends to use that word. It isn't the worst thing in the world but white guys giving themselves a pass is still bogus.

I reckon the one card that stays together perfectly, with some of the greatest fighters in the world, will do miserably on PPV. DJ to Rizin so he can be accompanied to the ring by a man in an XBox costume.

This might be a dumb question but can you watch live fights on Fight Pass? No right. You still need to buy the ppv

Also how does one buy a ppv? Do you just go to ppv. Common click on what you want and stream it or is it only through cable provider

If you use any sort of tv service you can usually purchase through them. If you don't, you can watch it via other outlets like fight pass, and I think Amazon. I know my PS4 has an app to watch them.

There's a lot of factors that could still negatively affect this fight, though I hope none of them happen.

Internationally you can watch all the prelims on fight pass then you can buy the ppv. In the US you can watch the special fight pass prelims and also buy the ppv on fight pass.

Pretty much where I'm at at this point. And there's only one interesting result possible even then, because it's obviously a foregone conclusion that if Conor wins he'll never defend the belt
