Even if Ronda is far and away the major female star of the UFC and made it possible for women to succeed in the UFC, Tate herself is the #2 on that list and brought a lot of good to the UFC and there is no chance Dana does not recognise Tate and appreciate her.

Being attractive as a female fighter was a definite thing promoters and fans were looking for early on for WMMA and it's not something that's gone entirely now. It's definitely easing off and WMMA gets praised on its virtues outside of sex appeal a lot more often now but it's pretty much revisionist history if people are going to claim it's never been a thing.

It's not unique to WMMA. It's just more of a thing.

EA UFC2 is 13 bucks on psn sale for ps4 right now if you're into that. I got on Jon Jones' tuf team as Chan Sung Jung and took out two people with spinning backfists so I got my moneys worth.

Edit: It's insane that they managed to make grappling and subs worse after EA UFC1

I was last on Team Tate as BJ Penn, which sounds about right circa 2017.

Aldo's performance in the second Edgar fight was masterful.

If he can track down Conor McGregor and perform like than in the second fight, it'd be an all time great fight.

Dangersim posted:

Does he though?

He's literally never defended one of the four belts he's held in MMA, so yeah, he does, quite a long way to go actually. He can start by defending a featherweight title.

Aldo vs Conor also taught us exactly one thing about how these two match up and little else. Conor has the ability to sleep Aldo with the right punch at the right time. That's only one part of the puzzle in a fight and there's a poo poo load more to that match up. People treat it like Cain vs JDS at the end of their trilogy, rather than what it really was, a Cain vs JDS 1 where a total hammer of a punch put the other dude out and left more questions than answers about the two. Don't take that to mean Aldo is the Cain of this match up and would come back and dominate Conor in a rematch either.

Because he's Anderson Silva.

I agree with your point though, and Anderson shouldn't be anywhere near a title shot and should probably retire.

It's a bad tattoo regardless of the source, even if that source is sweet. It's not the worst tat that a current UFC champ has though.

That would be the crown on the monkey's head that McGregor has.

Just to be clear, an FTM person is a trans man and should be called "he".

In my experience, this isn't always true and gender neutral pronouns should probably be used when you're addressing someone who you know is trans but not how they fully identify. S'not like that's hard or intended to cause offence.

let's be real here, the shittiest split possible for a boxing match against floyd would still eclipse any ufc payday for him

Seriously. As long as he gets in the ring and fights Mayweather, he's getting more money than he's made in the UFC combined if the fight happens.

Intel&Sebastian posted:

"Getting old" is kind of an odd one to claim when he's the best defensive boxer of all time and was last seen convincingly defeating Pac and Berto.

I think I might vaguely recall fatherdog once posting a list of people who made Mayweather's defensive boxing look anything less than stellar and it had no names on it which sums it up for me.

Conor mcgregor is gonna charge up his fist with his most power ever and unleash it at floys head who will disappear with a flicker and a laugh via instant transmission and punish him with a gigantic sphere of charged energy. Conor will manage to punch it into space at the last moment thanks to the 16oz gloves, but it crashes into the planet mars, destroying it instantly.

if he screams the attack name before letting it go, it gives it a +100% drama modifier and floyd might not be able to teleport out of the way

Cool but that wasn't the question, he asked if Conor and nate did the fusion dance and transformed into Conate Digregor, a new being with the multiplied power of both men as well as all of their tattoos would they beat Floyd before the fusion timer ran out.

if they used the earrings to become Nonor McDiaz instead, they'd get a full hour unless they used all their power on one punch then they'd not get an hour

I think we need to firmly establish universe rules for this fictional fight, is it in DragonBall z rules or is it in MGS 2/4 rules? DBZ definitely favors McGregor/Diaz, I think MGS is much more even.

In MGS2, the arm was possessing him, by MGS4, he'd cut it off and was faking it with hypnosis. Additional info required.

My wife and I are watching the fights from today. She would like to know why Bigg Rigg put Vaseline up his nose. Also she said he looked "fat as poo poo" and wondered if his corner were promising him sandwiches if he won.

Bigg Rigg putting vaseline on holes where it's not suppose to be... wonder if that's got an underlying meaning.

Lewis at the post fight: "poo poo, I appreciate Yamasaki letting it go a while longer. I'll give him a thousand dollars because I wanted to give Travis Browne a beating" (for beating women)


oh and he also went into specifics about needing to take a poo poo between rounds and letting out a carefully measured fart to just get comfortable.

just mad because Lewis didn't poo poo himself in the cage, leaving himself as the only heavyweight to have done so.
