God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

Of course it will help, but it's unlikely to let him win. But he's been talking like this for a few months now and I'm pretty sure it's just bravado. I doubt that's his only change.

Cool article on Nate Diaz with a bunch of fighters, including people who have won and lost against Nate talking about him. Pretty similar to the article about Aldo right before 194 where they talked to a bunch of people who got smashed by Jose.

I scrolled to the middle of it, saw someone refer to him as a "butthead", and knew it had to be a Benson Henderson quote.

That's by far the less disquieting Bendo quote -

Benson Henderson posted:


I try to keep a high pace too and I think, for sure, you can feel someone breaking. You can feel them slowing down. You can feel them wanting to catch their breath, wanting to move around and take a breather for real quick, then you not giving them that space. You can feel them wear down. You can feel them get tired. You can feel them get sad —€” and I love that feeling. You can physically feel their body get sad. It's awesome.

It's a pretty good test actually, because Classic BJ would annihilate Lamas, so if he gets ground down and beat up he should 100% hang it up.

Well, till he lost the title. Post title, pre-Bellator WW Benson was the best Benson. Watching him go from a gigantic lightweight to a small welterweight v Brandon Thatch made me root for him for the first time since the WEC days.

I can support this generally, although Cerrone 3 is a hard "no" and Edgar 2 is "yes, and then immediately turn it off at the final bell and pretend the decision went the way it clearly should have."
