Loser should have to get a The Damage tattoo

Rough matchup for Lee imo but still a very intriguing fight. Brady is the real deal, nice to see him get an opponent with a bigger name. Long injury layoff for Lee too, I'd be very surprised and impressed if he pulls it off.

Elkins tattoo is something I'd expect to see on a monster truck instead of a human being.

As for Laureda, you could not pay me to even glance at any article or social media involving her. Instant skip. Classic clickbait sellout, I get second hand embarrassment for the attention she receives. Cheapens the sport and it disrespects fellow competitors, but as long as there are young to middle aged men who want to see some skin she'll be in the spotlight I guess.

That D-Rod fight is fun too, Nurmagomedov looked solid on the feet last time out. Not sure who to pick in that one.

Medic fights are one way traffic, kids a stud


Also Ribas/Hill, Dusko/Pitolo, and Landwehr/Amirkhani are all off

Had to look this one up and yeah... nice. That's a good way to take a loss in stride.

This guy was on point. Another one happened, it’s going to happen with pretty regular frequency until people stop throwing it I reckon

 

[CDJ]

Yeah but not for you Luke.

Abdelaziz claimes that GSP wanted Khabib at 165 and Dana called him about that less than 2 weeks ago. Ali goes on to suggest GSP vs Usman.

I know conventional wisdom says Usman would smoke GSP but I actually find that very intriguing, on the very remote chance it comes to fruition. At the very least, GSP is still in phenomenal shape. Interesting that discussions have apparently taken place recently.

 

[CDJ]

Don’t think that ends well for GSP, I like his odds against Khabib better tbh

Wouldn't favor GSP by any means, but I find it compelling. I'm sure most people think Usman would kill him but if GSP were in peak form, I could see him hanging in there. Khabib looks huge now, even 165 may be a difficult cut. At their very best, I think Khabib's exhausting pace would pose more problens vs Usman who is a bit more measured in his approach.

I don't think Ali was implying anything, more just making a suggestion. But I don't hate it.

Jones has been tweeting about how he's going to wait and most likely isn't going to fight this year. It's pretty obvious at this point he wants someone else to do the heavy lifting of taking the belt from Ngannou.

Yeah, I don't think he wants any part of him unless it's a huge payday.

Where did it happen this time? I really hope we don't see a ton more of shins snapping.

Okay, I'm not even watching that. LOL.

f*** it I watched it. Ugh...

I do not blame you one bit

Sean O’Malley is looking at these incidents and nodding furiously, he’s a couple more shin snaps away from people not throwing them at him or anybody else anymore

Guys might want to go back to the upper leg kick or they need to place them better. Hitting around the knee while the other guy is planted seems to be the problem. In most cases, it doesn't even seem like they are checked. I guess when I say most cases I'm talking about 3 I know about. LOL.

That chick is... kind of f***ed. She went off a few years ago of not wanting to be objectified, but pretty much every photo she has her ass sticking out.

Like, whatever. Do you, but yeah. Odd look.

Thought Max was going to get a title shot, but I guess with Volk-Ortega doing TUF, he wanted to stay busy.

Don't like Yair's chances against Max.

 

[Chaels Arms]

Good on Max for taking that fight. I'm kind of surprised he just didn't wait though, I would have assumed he was already in line for the winner of Ortega v. Volkanovski even with the two L's to Volk.

 

[CDJ]

Oh I like that fight

Agreed and I get it, with these lower-end fighters not making much IG is another stream of revenue for them but yeah, she is definitely asking to be objectified in most of her posts. No complaints and honestly never heard of her before this week.
