Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.

i seriously can't see why poirier didn't ask for 100k bonus and then go out there and flog parke. parke is technically pretty good but he's pretty much the definition of feather fisted. poirier would gently caress him up.

His statement on twitter was "to let the small fish go" and to wait for the Duffy fight to be rescheduled.

I agree, I think he would have outclassed Parke easily even if Norman might have a decent chin on him, but Dustin might be smart to wait for a better event.

if duffy's injury is extremely un-serious, sure, but as far as risk reward goes though there's almost no way he couldn't gently caress up parke, not get hurt at all, get a huge bonus, a potn, his win / show money, an addition to his highlight reel and name recognition / good will of ireland and still fight duffy next

Yes, it's still a fist fight and 'anything can happen' but the chances of anyone ever getting the chance to gently caress up Norman Parke for that much money should absolutely take it

Reminder that Justin Trudeau did a charity boxing match against a senator (Patrick Brazeau) who was later implicated in a spending scandal. In the mean time, the senator was last seen helping run a strip club.

I was told Trudeau not only knows what the gently caress "Gamergate" is about, but also told the five nerds still supporting it to gently caress off via Twitter.

“My mom raised me to be a feminist. My father raised me, he was a different generation but he raised me to respect and defend everyone’s rights, and I deeply grounded my own identity in that, and I am proud to say that I am a feminist,” he said during the Up for Debate event in September.

“The things we see online, whether it is issues like gamergate or video games misogyny in popular culture, it is something that we need to stand clearly against.”

yeah. I mean I'm a no-life having UFC fan and even I can't justify waking up at 10 am to watch slightly-more-life having nobodies from Ireland fight on a low quality stream.

I know we're all desperate for MMA but maybe this event is taking things too far.

I end up feeling like death and enjoying it less if I stay up/wake up for UFC nowadays, so the EU suitable time cards being utter shite sucks pretty badly because it's the only times I can watch it without feeling dead.

That said, it's not like the Poirier fight is the last straw, the UFC hasn't done a very good job of internation expansion outside of Brazil and Japan cards for a long time now.

I'm in the eu but i'm not going to watch this poo poo. The card is just, so bad and meaningless . Does any fight on this card matter? I guess some of the losers might end up cut but lol.
