guy who ducked his way out of ufc is crying that the public wanted somebody else as flyweight champion, which was one of a few reasons he didn't want to rematch Cejudo.

I wanna get hyped about Askren. What should I watch? I like the slow patient fighters like Woodley and GSP and all those guys so I don’t mind if it’s “boring”.

I guess now we know the kind of centrist liberalism that allows these kinds of people to gain support unchallenged without critcism looks like.

there was a guy in the 229 thread who literally said "fighters should have healthcare" and "let's not talk politics" in the same thread. politics cannot be separated from the world we live in folks.

you're just going about it the wrong way. know your audience: you shouldn't say "bolsanaro is a horrific fascist who will cause immense pain and anguish on the poor and vulnerable of brazil, specifically LGBT folks", you should say "sage northcutt is now at risk if he fights in brazil"

dox posted:Seems that most of the brazilian MMA fighters endorsed him: https://www.bloodyelbow.com/2018/10...m-zidan-feature Most Brazilian sportsmen supported Bolsonaro. If you follow soccer, think about anyone at all that's somewhat famous and there's a good chance they recorded a pro-Bolsonaro video or sent a support message through social media. They usually come from quite humble families, are very religious and have lived the favela reality, so someone claiming they're gonna get rid of the corruption that made them poor, keep the gays in their place (even some LGBT people agree with that poo poo, see Amanda Nunes) and murder criminals is very appealing to them. Plus, sports are a very macho thing, especially combat sports. Bolsonaro's posturing is macho posturing. Anyway, at least I can see those guys get punched in the face for catharsis! I don't think it's gonna have much impact on UFC events down here either, at least I don't see any reason why it would. Bolzi is very anti-union so that's perfect for Dana White.
