MassRafTer posted:The saddest part of his career to me was the Bigfoot fight. He lost and barely did anything but afterwards was talking like it was a moral victory because he didn't get knocked out. The saddest part for me was when he spent 14 minutes and 45 seconds looking terrified of engaging with Travis loving Fulton before deciding to throw a kick and instantly knocking him stupid.

I know Arlovski is a decent enough boxer, but does he really have KO power? Or is Schaub's chin also already shot?

Swedens largest private TV-channel has started a web series about Swedish MMA, which is nice. They just released a short clip where Ilir Latifi demonstrates his choke from the Diabate fight. With English subtitles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIRl9iLkRq0 It's nice to see how far the image of MMA in Sweden has come. Just a few years ago everything had a tone of disapproval and now it's mostly just another sport.

The best thing about Affliction was when Barnett failed to get licensed and then Fedor ducked Vitor Belfort and asked to fight Brett Rogers instead.

While we're talking about how nice it is that MMA really is becoming mainstream in Sweden, one of SHLs(swedish hockey league) most famous teams has now started training MMA for all their cardo and strength needs. I think its really neat.

I'm canadian and our meathead hockey fans are proud of how "tough" our teams are in international competition, which mainly translates to hitting with disproportionate power at inappropriate times. If one of our guys dropped their gloves and instantly got choked unconscious by a Swede I would laugh so hard..

Arlovski's spent the last 4 years fighting racists, mentally broken men and UFC washouts. I can't see this being a stellar return to the Octagon.

Nike's new World Cup ad has a little cameo from Jon Jones and Anderson Silva, and it feels really out of place amidst all the football.

Coincidentally Jon won't be allowed to sport any Nike logos on Saturday. He's still sponsored by them for the next 18 months or so, but Zuffa didn't come to a deal with them to allow it. His sole sponsor will be EA Sports.

And I didn't realize that he's done this before: http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2014/3/5/5476220/ufc-light-heavyweight-champ-jon-jones-twitter-beerf-tyson-griffin-waterboy-mma-news And after Romero KO'd Derek Brunson, Jones DM'ed "dick sucker" to some guy who commented on it.  So apparently, even worse than being a herb, Jones doesn't appreciate the greatness that is Yoel Romero.

It's loving hilarious how Jon Jones is in a constant state of too bad-boy for his christian image and too christian for his bad-boy image. Which results in things like calling some random fool a dick sucker on twitter and then genuinely feeling bad about it. Edit: Sorry Ken doll it was me.
