loving :lol: that frankie two times cleared out the LW division. His championship reign included one rematch against an outclassed BJ Penn, a draw against the only guy who had ever beat him, and then finally beating Grey Maynard.

His championship run was 4 fights that were all rematches and he won 3 of them then he lost to Benson twice. Frankie is only ever the LW goat if you're from NJ.

Incorrect. Frankie has two title defenses and one title retention.

Like DC didn't defend against bones even though he's still champ. He just retained the title because JBJ can't stay off the juice.

Bisping deservedly is mocked for his very British double, but his defensive wrestling is really, really good.

Chael Sonnen struggled to wrestle Bisping while making most other 185/205 guys prior to that look silly. I don't think GSP has better wrestling than Chael plus he'll be giving up a lot in size difference. Chael and Bisping are both 6'1". GSP is only 5'10".

GSP has a major uphill battle to win this fight and I'm not sure he does it.

That should come with some purse forfeiture, imo, and maybe some criminal penalties. Rogan called it out right away, too.

He can get charged with perjury at the very least. Deliberately exposing someone with an infectious disease can be assault, though i'm not sure how nevada treats it.

We could argue about who understands the medical details of staph all day, but ultimately it would still be stupid of the NSAC not to do anything about this, just because Lee blatantly committed perjury on a form of theirs and admitted to it publicly immediately after and letting that slide would be a bad precedent.

Exactly.

Also UFC medical probably knew. He hid it from the AC. The UFC had some sort of idea because they were telling DC to shut up about it.

They didn't catch it at the medical check because he actively concealed it from them.

im sure weve all used foundation to hide a hickey or something when we were teenagers but hiding a 2-3 inch diameter boil from a physical examiner seems a bit challenging

He had makeup on for the weigh in, too. There's no reason to believe that he couldn't get it covered well enough to pass. The doc isn't necessarily touching them for any more than to check for vitals.

If he or his team had said that post fight instead of "yeah i have a staph infection and am on antibiotics for it" then you would have a point.

So were any of the fights yesterday particularly worth watcing?

The Alvey fight and the Warrly fight were the only ones that stunk out loud. Round 1 of the Ladd fight stunk but round 2 more than makes up for it. The first round of the first prelim was 10-7, there was a standing RNC snatched with no hooks, lots of fun grappling, and some sick kos.

Pretty much watch it all except alvey and alves.

The artem lobov fight featured a referee timeout so marc goddard could tell conor mcgregor to shut the gently caress up, be professional, and sit the gently caress down.

Conor through a round and a half to that point had been circling the cage and yelling coaching instructions to Artem. Fili was still whooping him senseless.

Lmao that's amazing. And I really don't like Alvey anyway, always seemed so one-dimensional to me :shrug:What was the 10-7? Just a total beatdown? How do you even survive without it being a tko or something?

In every other striking sport it would have been a TKO. Dude still defended himself but got straight loving dropped four times in the first round.

Bisping is going to embarrass GSP. It is not going to be close. It might be Yair Rodriguez/BJ Penn bad.
