So it's going to be indoors, no throne, no torches, and it's probably going to look like it could be any empty arena in the world.

...yay fight island.





I was in one of these for a muy thai fake tournament they put on for UFC242 and it was hot as loving balls.

I am from South Florida and currently live in Miami. I like ATT and I like Jorge and I don't think he has poo poo for Usman

got some chores tonight posted:

masvidal is just a bog standard att guy who just jabs and leg kicks (although he does have a nice body kick too) and wall walks for defensive wrestling. hes 11-7 in the ufc. ppl think he is a good fighter cuz of a three fight win streak that was completely manufactured. he won 1 fight against a real opponent, then he ko'd some guy who was retired before he got put in the ufc cuz dana hates mighty mouse, then he beat the most beatable fighter in the sport for anyone w/ a jab and knows how to take a step after throwing a punch that dana just tricked ppl into thinking it was a real fight cuz he didnt have a real main event. hes completely mediocre and idk why there was such a hype train for him.

Hello, I too enjoy watching grown, child-like men give each others gift of CTE for my amusement. While I do agree that Masvidal has a lot of hype behind him, I would have to say that his social media interactions, persona and poo poo talking acumen should not subtract from what is a very intelligent smart fighter. Damien Maia himself said Masvidal has some of the best defensive BJJ in all of MMA that he has ever encountered, and really if Damien Maia is talking about jujitsu, you should probably listen.

Here is a really cool video about Senor Masvidal and Senor Maia aggressively hugging each other: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KokcLXUTlqU

Jorge is also an elite striker with an excellent sense of tempo and timing, has the ability to control pace and throws unique, fluid combinations from different angles. Masvidal will often show a combination several times at a certain speed before drastically altering it in later rounds. He is an excellent striker.

Mr. Masvidal also stuffed 7/8 shots from your Champion Mr. Usman at one point in the fight, so really, put some respekt on his name.

Jorge has been a journeyman for much of his career but this should not subtract from his glow up and his blow up. He is absolutely a product of the (Terribly run, lovely) UFC hype train and he has absolutely done alot to promote himself but he is a top 5-7 fighter who is in the twilight of his career due to age. I think he can give the top 5 a run for their money and I enjoy his fights and his antics.

I wish the best to jorge and look foward to Jorge hopefully baptising motherfuckers.

As an aside, I really like the guard work ATT learned from watching Dustin get mauled. If you compare Dustin and Jorge's guard they play a very similar style over closing guard -> holding dudes head down to your chest, push up, elbow from bottom, repeat until the guy tries to pass or does something and than flash triangles and armbars. It was fantastic to watch and really interesting that it seems to be a staple of the ATT style now.

If you like technical things here is:

an excellent 9 part study regarding Khabibs grappling - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FrjANY1T40

An examination of the way Maia has adopted traditional BJJ to MMA Grappling - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qu_ulU7nE-0

LegLock Defense: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvZ_DH2rFzE
This video actually legitimately directly improved my grappling ability despite the fact that I am trash and don't understand a whole lot going on in this video. the traditional MMA defense to leglocks is "Punch that dumb motherfucker in the face for having his hands on your legs" doesn't work in grappling but the concept of turning down, fighting the cross, stacking and building a base has gotten me out of alot of leg entanglements that I have no interest in playing.

No-Gi Miyao study : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtBWUlizcN4
I quite like this since i use a similar body lock cross-face game very regularly minus the inversion to back entry paths they show. cause im trash.

Idk why they wouldn't stand up the back up crew and keep em on site on yas island. Its not like its busy right now. That way you dont stress your people out shuttling back and forthe every three weeks. It was like 15.5 hours direct to Dubai out of MIA. gently caress going there and back every 3 weeks or whatever their schedule is working out toward.

I loved UFC 3, is there a thread for it? This one does look like a lovely reskin with little to no changes :/ the career mode could be so cool with a little story and an open matt style gym modeled after myplayer/my career and the neighborhood in 2k.

EA is the worst.

Its also a bad time to release as I think the PS5 is rumoured to be dropping xmas?
