Dc's kidneys have failed attempting to cut down to 265

I mean. Its just a trip. Nothing to be worried about. Oh unless you are old, fat and have kidney problems. Then that sort of accident could kill you. So dc is definitely fine

I dont think chael has any right to call anyone the most annoying guy in the room

Cormier used to do that amateur wrestling with promos and pro wrestling production style. Could be fun. Brock will win the fight though

Most huge, non fat guys have relatively small calves. I dunno if he has small thighs or not

I would say Miesha Tate had few remarkable qualities aside from toughness and mental fortitude and I don't remember people wondering if she was psychologically broken or taking a dive when she kept rushing inside to get into Ronda's clinch in the rematch well after she started getting taken down on it every time.

I can think of one other remarkable quality miesha had: enormous breasts

Well in olympic wrestling when you get successfully doubled you lose, which is similar to what you describe

DC would be way more likeable if he just admitted that he was an rear end in a top hat when jon jones said he could take him down. Unfortunately, he was mean to jon and that means everyone hates him and the ufc will now go out of business

if you can agree with the logic that pound 4 pound is kind of dumb and realistically the heavier weight classes would beat the lighter weightclasses, then DC is probably like, the 2nd or 3rd best fighter of all time outside of Jonathn "Bones" Jones.

Daniel cormier is at least as good as stefan struve, kelly anundson, kevin burns or yushin okami.

If we assume there were no weight limit would the fattest possible dc even be able to hang in the same ring as the fattest possible sakurai? Absolutely not

I guess the estimates suggest 226 didnt sell a lot. Thats good, because it means that people arent buying bad shows and maybe the ufc will instead put on good shows

Dc will die trying to make the cut to 205, yoel will reign for 6 years and luke rockhold will get knocked out a bunch more times before retiring

david carmichael

Yoel fought at 205 before. His fight against Feijao was amazing. He threw zero punches, and just kept moving. He gassed hard in the second round, stopped moving and got brutally knocked out. Flawless performance

One imagines that the threat is that schaub has evidence of whites adultery and/or sex with employees. Except hes already put those cards on the table so how does he do more damage unless they both hosed someone really stupid

Dj wants to fight someone as the comain or lower on a bigger ppv. Thats his stated route to a payday

Eddie loves to eat left straights and left uppercuts, and he said he completely abandonned his gameplan for the connor fight (move to connor's right, try to get in on his legs)

I think promoting fighters more goes a long way. That is, get fighters on talk shows, variety shows, reality shows, etc. Get media exposure outside of shows that are just about mma. Make in house promotional stuff that makes fighters seem compelling or controversial. Beyond that, promote match ups. Dont have joe rogan say his nonsense, but focus on why this is a compelling match up that i, the viewer, should care about. Give some level of analysis that helps you care. Again, not by joe rogan

Lastly, and most critically: book good fights between good fighters. Dont try to hold off until the end of the year or after tuf to schedule a fight. Schedule a fight asap. If a fighter doesnt want to fight, offer them more money or make a different also good fight. You build contenders by having people fight in good fights, and making the public care about the fighter and the person. Not by having guys sit out and posting on isntagram or whatever
