Luke Rockhold riding a camel everybody

EDIT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyhCTG0CyFg

i heard luke rockhold being interviewed on the primary news radio station in perth and the interviewer mentioned when giving notice of the upcoming interview of that luke was alleged to be the handsomest ufc fighter. i had a chuckle that this would be notable enough for the geriatric presenter on the publicly funded radio station to mention

the second dong hyun kim is more fun to watch than ol' donger these days, i'm afraid

Big Dong has had a handful of really cool moments amongst a sea of blandness but ultimately his legacy is probably getting the UFC lots of publicity in Korea for smashing Jason Tan, paving the way for guys like the zombie. I can't blame the guy for picking a sustainable career in the lucrative doing random bullshit on TV industry, but it sucks a lot more than Akiyama because Dong is actually a good fighter.

He looked shopworn his last few fights so I'm happy he's doing something else. He was one of my favorite backpack fighters though.

i knew that but didnt want to sound r*cist for thinking all dong hyuns kims were the same.

for fightpass people does UFC usually have the prelims/fightpass prelims available for VOD pretty soon after the event?

Pennington is actually on a good streak and would have fought for the title a year ago if not for an injury. Numerically her record is ugly, but she has mostly had difficult fights, and she has improved significantly from the TUF days.

Plus she and Tecia Torres are adorable.

Akiyama was legit good back in the day, and his judo in the UFC was a lot of fun, he is also incredibly attractive.

Also, looking through Raquel's record, her last loss was to Holly during the Rousey v Zingano card. I had forgotten how fast that fight ended

Does this make Henri Hooft something like 1-9 in recent coaching?

For his first UFC PPV, Jimmy Smith did a pretty solid job working with Anik. Sort of wish he did the post fight interviews but whatever.

His reaction to Romero hammerfisting Rockhold's lead leg was pretty good.
