The only thing that would have made those more perfect is if it had translated TJ and Cody as the weight-cock division

She literally walked out of the cage after getting starched shaking her head and waving her finger in the air to say she was still number 1.

I was really hoping in her last fight she'd get humbled by someone who is nearly dwarf height

Cody is either pure dumb, or bad and dumb. But he's definitely dumb.

You're not wrong

apparently it's very tough to not have a racist or otherwise gross past on twitter that you somehow forget to delete that later puts your entire career in jeopardy as often as it's happening now

It's gonna be a rad fight no doubt just figured he'd hold out for something bigger

Finally got around to watching the Stipe vs DC season of TUF and John Gunther is awesome. I'm glad he got a win in the finale recently because after watching his season I'm a big fan.

If only he was as good at fighting as he is at being an entertaining and interesting dude - he's Sage Northcutt levels of being likable

If both of the main fights on that card hold it'll probably be the biggest numbers ever, right?

Did y’all read the tweets? Definitely used gay slurs used as an insult, but he says “nigga” when referring to himself and buddies. Dumb yes, racist hell no.

As a brown dude I hate when people pile on to call someone a racist when there isn’t any proof. There are plenty real racists out there, and they don’t say “nigga”, no need to pile on Cody for using the slang that’s all over mainstream media and has been his entire life.

No I didn't but also I was referring to all celebrities not just that one

Some of the ones getting nailed in this storm of people digging through tweets from years ago lately were being racist so it was just a joke about it being extremely hard not to be - because, you know, sarcasm

He didn't ask for a rematch and I'm wondering if he's not going to keep fighting after all the poo poo Dana gave him.

As important as that record was to him he would probably rather go out on his own terms and retire as the champion I'd imagine

But maybe not - maybe like you said he'll tell UFC to gently caress themselves and retire to twitch streaming like he said he'd like to after his career is done anyway

A new champion and mighty mouse in the belt chase for the first time since it was created were the parts that were different and possibly exciting

his style is garbage and is perfectly honed to win bad or close decisions

You're not wrong on the second part but I disagree with the first part

I like Cruz fights for the same reason I liked Anderson Silva fights - the fun part on a technical level is watching guys that are usually good strikers try and fail to hit them

now it IS entertaining when he short circuits guys with his awkward stepping.

That is the kind of thing I was talking about. But I also enjoyed him getting clowned by Cody who had his movements figured out.

I will go ahead and say I've apparently only seen the few entertaining Cruz fights/highlights there are and haven't seen a good portion of his fights in full so I haven't been able to sample a great deal of what makes people hate them.
