2012 was the dog poo poo year. 2014 I think was the year where all the injuries happened and the main events fell apart but the whole-card quality was genuinely and consistently good. So, dog poo poo too as far as business and promotion goes I guess.

i've got a lot of people calling me things like 'retarded' and 'loving unfathomably stupid'. i'd like to set the record straight by saying yeah, lol, i just hosed up the only chance i'll get for people to know who i am for reasons i can be proud of. i'm going to take some time off to heal up and probably not kill myself because i'd only gently caress that up too.

aldo just wants to fight him. stephens hasn't said anything afaik and may well be content to just sit around for a title shot. it would be undeniably sick though.

I feel like I never heard of the guy before this card, and he had a good fight with a memorable ending on the most recent night of fighting. I guess I'm not sure where the "why's he getting so much hype" comments are coming from?

I watch more ufc than 90% of fans and I had no idea who he was despite being on the main card of a ppv and billed above arlovski, dariush, dodson, poo poo even Mike pyle and caraway. That is getting a little bit of a push when your contract is probably 10/10

My coach, who I call Master for normal reasons, told me to shut up and refused to throw in the towel while I took the most horrendous beating seen in the octagon in recent memory because it would have been worse for me if he had. Reminder that with his selfless inaction I cried every day for three weeks and won't fight again for a year or maybe ever.

I remember watching cyborg knock evinger retarded with a jab in the first round and then carry her to the third before finishing her easily. I was wondering why but then it was explained to me that sometimes this happens to make a ridiculous mismatch look less like a ridiculous mismatch for the illusion of competitiveness and legitimacy.

welterweight is such an uninteresting shitfight at the moment. woodley is the loving champion. wonderboy is amazingly talented and dog poo poo to watch but will repeatedly derail contenders despite never fighting for the title again while woodley is champ, rda, masvidal and cowboy are lightweights, lawler seems to not give a poo poo any more, rory is in another organization, maia and condit are 400 years old and colby covington is a legit contender.

Khabib's never gone more than three rounds and has never fought someone as good at controlling pace and slowing his opponent as Max or Tony.

true, but against barboza he looked like he just stepped out of the shower after 3 so i'd be stunned if he just fell apart in the fourth against a much smaller fighter. still. we'll see.

He isn't hated. He's just Artem Lobov - utterly unqualified to be doing what he's doing and getting paid too well to do it while having no discernible value to anyone but will not go away and only seems to be getting more prominent.
