if the ufc only supported the rising podcast game they'd be able to sell more ppv's, tanking their net worth in the process (natch)

Conor's game plan off his back against Chad was to implore the referee with his eyes. It was the same look women give other women at the club when I try my best computer pick up line.

I honestly did not expect people to be so hilariously defensive about the IT profession. The reaction was definitely severe enough and hysterical enough that I will think twice about making a computer joke in the future.

swarming styles tend to do really poorly against elite counter punchers which is why eddie got so soundly thrashed. however conor did really well against an out-boxer like nate too. i think conor's just a pretty good fighter. i don't think either of these things says very much about how khabib will fare. i think khabib will land a couple of those really awkward arcing punches because conor will be really worried about the takedown, and as long as khabib methodically plods in and doesn't run in with his chin up he won't get sparked, which means i think conor's in for a long night. that's my official prediction. lock it in. let's put some hilarious bets down.

VagueRant posted:Hey UFC thread, I need to know who to MORALLY root for again! khabib hates rap concerts and loves being a devout muslim, so basically i'm completely up for watching either one of them get embarrassed and brutally retired and it's honestly the best way to root for an upcoming match. get about it. nothing wrong with rooting for ugly tony. he may be an absolute lunatic who speaks like he's on lethal doses of hallucinogens all the time but at least he doesn't expect chicks he brings home to gently caress his seedy uncle who has been masturbating in the corner for 25 minutes

it felt like the first diaz fight in that he gave up his back and neck to be choked unopposed because he was tired of being beaten on. he will never fight khabib again in a million years. there is literally not enough time left in his athletic prime to prepare for that man. it was such a one sided beating that i was genuinely embarrassed for conor and his fans in an empathetic way - i thought barboza was the best lightweight on earth.

ghouldaddy07 posted:I did not mean that Khabib should not have won , but that Mcgregor just flailed aimlessly instead of counter punching like the Alverez fight. Still cocaine is a hell of a drug.. lol. khabib is not a swarmer and adamantly refused to run chin first into conor. it turns out that when conor punches someone who isn't running into his fist he's... just a pretty good puncher but nothing too special. sorry to destroy the illusion

been to only two events, which is pretty good considering how often the ufc is between 1500 and 3000kms away from me (to be clear, these are the events that are close to me). had a genuine loving blast at both of them and saw some spectacular fights (hunt / bigfoot 1, ronda / holm). it really is worth going just for the atmosphere. the crowd is usually really well behaved unfortunately because like 40% of the attendees have travelled significant distances to be there and don't want to get kicked out for brawling. Shine posted:I went to some random local MMA show with kensei and digitalmocking a couple years ago, and it was a blast. The highlight was some freckle-faced kid making his amateur debut. I assume he was 18, but he looked about 14. i try to go to all my local ammy events and one kickboxing night stands out in my memory: it's one of the opening fights and the contestants are still kids, like, 15 or 16 years old. the first kid comes out and he looks like a really solid kid. the guy who came out second had a fashionable haircut and looked kind of thin and sort of, er, feminine, and as he's walking to the ring the crowd starts chanting 'bieber, bieber, bieber'. well. bieber took the ribbing from the crowd, manufactured it into pure hate, and straight out of the gate landed this spinning back kick to the liver of his opponent causing a sound to emit from that kid that i can still hear and the crowd just goes silent and scattered, shocked applause briefly appears. it was thoroughly loving sick and violent and just an interesting time and place to be alive. shout outs to that bieber kid. hope he's doing well.

Gay Horney posted:it's kind of wild how perfect that ufc ppv was. nobody missed weight, the fights were all incredible and everything lived up to the highest expectations we had. the card in general was very good but the ppv was mostly terrible except for the main / comain. still, it is absolutely an achievement and legitimately notable that nobody stopped a fighter's weight cut while being supremely unqualified to make that call yet suitably empowered. and no one else missed weight the usual way. and nobody got hurt in a bus, or went to prison, or hosed up his leg on a stray piece of AV equipment.
