mcgregor can flap his gums all he wants. he'll never be as insufferable as cole miller, the only guy to ever make me root for junie browning.

mcgregor will hopefully rack up 4-5 wins against trash and then give jose aldo his biggest payday thanks to crazy hype.

Why do I miss the gladiator intro so much? It was certainly in the so bad it's good category.

at the very least, it was less offensive than the ripping me into pieces song. for someone who wants to make mma bigger than soccer, dana insists he can do it while using a song that would turn off any educated adult instantly.

8 of his 14 UFC (with TUF finale) wins have been by TKO, which I find surprising as poo poo. Granted those were against Mayhem, Jorge, Kang, Jason Day, Elvis and a couple of people I don't recognize.

bisping isn't really pillow-fisted, but he is an accumulation puncher who overwhelms opponents with volume and pace until they can no longer defend themselves.

it's pretty dope.

It is a Bendo fight can their be any doubt to it's outcome other that it will be a robbery?

yeah, a close decision or a clear-cut decision. the guy has only had one robbery, a bunch of close fights, and a couple of absolute dominations.

I thought Bendo beat Melendez and Frankie the first time, lost to Thomson and Frankie the second time.

i agree for the most part (barely remember bendo/thompson), but it doesn't even matter what we think. the fact is that outside of frankie 2, all the fights that people with a lame grasp of scoring call robberies were just real close fights with a perfectly valid argument for either guy getting the nod.

i don't think we know enough about weidman to know what kind of challenge machida presents.

lmao still with this retard garbage, in this very thread. give this goon a participation metal stained with hotdog mustard

wrong wording, but his point is correct. machida doesn't bait guys by planting his feet and matrixing. he gets the gently caress outta dodge. we don't know how well weidman can close distance, time counters, etc. because we haven't seen him strike against a lot of styles. i remember there being a lot of striking in the maia fight, but he was fighting with no camp. other than that he had two exchanges with munoz before cleaning his clock, and a little bit with anderson before cleaning his.

fight pass friends, does fight pass get episodes of TUF right after they air on FS1?

i also think robbie will win the fight, but if matt brown tags lawler like jake did in the third, he'll do more about it than stand around real tired. it's an interesting and fun fight.

Nah, Michael Kuiper is in Titan Fighting now.

this is good stuff.

i like tyron woodley a lot, but in his last fight he just managed to prove he could have a dominant first round against condit. a feat that isn't exactly unique in the welterweight divison. it would have been really interesting to see that fight play out, because i think woodley's got a ton of potential with his combination of speed and wrestling. i would love to have seen how his cardio would have held up against condit's late-fight pressure.

varner has been such a fart for so long that i now find it endearing. rarely do you get to watch someone exhibit so little personal growth over the course of a decade.
