Throwing a couple of extra punches at a clearly unconscious opponent "Congratulations on the win, friend!" Flipping off the cage in joy over winning your fight "You are a disgrace and you will not be permitted to compete in MMA you swine"

is the point of that rule really sportsmanship or are they trying to reduce liability or wtf?

In the NFL it's 15 yards, not depriving you of your livelihood for doing a funny dance or whatever. I, too, thought the original post about it was a joke. Dang.

I suspect in this case indefinitely is meant literally rather than "forever" and they will just give him a token suspension or fine. That or other commissions won't uphold it because they have no such rules

Maybe it's a retroactive suspension for beating up Nick Newell

I'm trying to imagine a Terrance-and-Phillip style rendering of Gary Goodridge. Probably like this. But three times as wide. And black. With lots of dents in his head.

Will WSOF 30 be worth watching? I'm gonna be in Vegas that weekend and general admission tickets are like $35 after convenience fees, I might just try to convince my friend to go with me and see my first live fights. Card looks like this: MMAJunkie.com posted:Champ David Branch vs. Clifford Starks – for middleweight title No info about the prelims yet. Thanks in advance.

You might see a cool sub and Fitch will definitely lead blanket a dude to win a belt. Sounds like $35 well spent.

“I truly honestly believe that if it wasn’t for the pills that I’m taking, my life would have been done a long time ago. I would have taken my life, absolutely. Mental disability is a huge thing. It’s got me crippled," said noted dementia sufferer and Canadian Donald Trump supporter Gary Goodridge to Inside MMA in January. "My days suck. When I wake up, I feel like going back to bed. I could get a job, then I’d forget I had a job.” I can't blame to guy for having bad opinions given that his head is all sorts of hosed up. Ostensibly sane and non-brain damaged Americans have supported Trump for worse reasons.
