Dana said Jones is likely getting a title shot when he comes back. I can't wait for Jones to ruin another pay per view main event when he plows into a crowd of nuns while high on boner pills.

Jon Jones has made a fuckton of money from this sport but he's still the modern-era UFC Champion I consider most likely to be living in a van outside a gym by the time he's 40.

Uh, id argue everyone who openly mocked me and my fun mma adventures were far less of an rear end in a top hat than the guy who openly wanted me to post more about my fun experiences and exclusive scoops whilst at the same time reporting every post I made.

All I wanted you to do was stop posting about how you had super exclusive insider information on GSP's sexuality, and you did that, so you're cool with me now, for whatever that's worth*

"She's going to be a threat to everyone in the division!"

So, Holly then.

His resting heart rate was 34 BPM, which iirc is freakish even among "actual athletes", not just MMA guys

I sit next to a guy who rides to and from work every day (about 80km total) and sometimes rides for fun on weekends who has a resting heart rate of 34. He was in hospital to get his gallbladder taken out last year and the "poo poo this guy is dying of heart failure" alarm kept going off. Resting heart rate isn't indicative of drug use

Also, while I think only the second of the late shots was particularly egregious, if the commission is smart it will seize this opportunity to declare that the women's featherweight belt legally no longer exists, never existed and cannot exist in the future.

Agree, retroactive existence failure in perpetuity is the best thing that could happen to W145.

I get the feeling that the worst decision new management has made thus far is letting Joe Silva walk. 2014 was absolutely ravaged by main events falling apart and yet the year itself was great in no small part because he and Shelby got really loving good at their jobs.

He retired though, right? If he wanted out there's very little they could have done to stop him.

Eight figures I could see but not eight zeroes. Getting paid an amount of money equal to ~half a percent of the value of the company you were instrumental in building up from practically nothing seems reasonable.

Having said that probably no one outside him, the Fertittas and Dana knows exactly what it was, and never will. He's got gently caress You money and wants to enjoy life with his young kids. Leave the man to his enjoyable retirement.

If Conor McGregor can not only keep his significant other Artem Lobov in the UFC but get him a main event on a Fight Night card, then one can only imagine the kind of pull Ronda Rousey has.

There's a pretty significant difference between those two. I'll give you a few minutes on your own, see if you can work it out.

Browne is a great example of Heavyweight being 50/50 most of the time except for a select group of top-5-ish fighters that will actually fight as opposed to be large and athletic. This being his first loss to a guy who has never been champion might mean that's all on the way out for him.

Which is great because I for one will not miss his spastic flailing and dreadful face/tattoos/personality when they shitcan him.

I loving know, right? Every morning waking up and realising that you're not one of the good fat fightmen like Hunto or Dos Santos, nor are you one of the likeable entertaining trashweights like Pat Berry or Joey Beltran. No sir, you're four pounds of misfiring motor neurons scraped along the inside of a 230lb Tiki themed turd golem and you're so innately unlikeable that even the notoriously racist PSPMMA will cheer a Brazilian just for hurting you. Every morning the dude probably tries to put the gun in his mouth but accidentally ends up flying crescent kicking it out the window when he gets a fit of The Brownes.

Specifically, Woodley got Sage to come in as a guy who his camp considered to be a similar point-fighting sports karate fighter like Wonderboy, to train with him, and from that Tyron has introduced Sage to such concepts as "food with flavour" and "racism exists".
