And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Hahaha Roan Carneiro on the MMA hour is pretty funny. He said he was scared someone would steal his belt so he wore it on the plane and regaled other passengers with the story of how he got it.

I think I saw on twitter that he said the OK AC fined him like $15k for missing a meeting so he only took home $35k instead of the full 50,000

He mention that, or do I not know how to read twitter again? :confused:

He got fined 30% for being 90 minutes late for a medical. He didn't get to appeal because by the time he had discovered his fine (when he got paid by the promoters) the AC representatives had already left the venue.

Apparently DEEP are picking up the reins for the traditional hastily planned, ultra long NYE card. I'll be surprised if they get anything beyond a NicoNico streaming deal and a bunch of fights that they'd usually put on anyway.

WSOF, on NBC Sports, will include three championship fights. Because those who do not study history are doomed to repeat it. I'm frankly surprised Jake Shields isn't involved.

In just a few short days, Jake Shields will once again be a World Champion, so all will be right with the world soon enough

Except MLB is the baseball equivalent of the UFC, as it is the premiere organization that everyone wants to get into. Shields being a world champ in WSoF is like a dude being a champ with the Tokyo Yakult Swallows

Different angle of Rampage/Arona I've never seen before

The cameraman, for some reason, veers to the big screen twice but captures the best part. The in ring and corner commentary is pretty funny.

I actually don't really think it's all that silly to have several world champions spread out over various organisations in sports like MMA, where there really aren't any official tournaments run by independent governing bodies, like there is in wrestling or swimming, for instance. In sports run mainly by private Corporations world champion merely means it was a competition within a certain organisation open to competitors from all or most nationalities, as opposed to competitions restricted to nationals of a certain smaller geographical area.

Certain Wwrld champion titles will just be more meaningful than others but it's not really wrong to call them all world campionship titles, European titles, or whatever region they restrict themselves to.
