The good thing about modern mma is that every non wmma fight is good

For instance check out these fights

Vitor Belfort vs Kelvin Gastelum
Shogun Rua vs Gian Villante
Josh Burkman vs Michael Prazeres

I finally watched Gastelum murder Tim Kennedy. That was incredibly satisfying. :allears:

Good loving fight too. I'll miss Tim. Such a good guy to root against. Hopefully his social media continues to be entertaining.

If gastellum gets past vitor, will Dana let him back to ww? Would he even go back being so close to the top at mw? He's such an amazing fighter. I can't hate that fat idiot.

My favourite thing about Gastelum is how he embraces his fatness. He doesn't blame nutritionists, training camps or anything like that. He basically just says he struggles with weight cuts because he likes food.

This is a fighter I can relate too

Looking forward to charting the career of the ever expanding K Gastelum, from Welter to heavyweight. Gonna be great.

Watching back the Teymur/Vannata fight and aside from the fact it's entertaining as hell, the chemistry between Rogan and Cruz is amazing.

Anik tries to get in on it in between R2 and 3 when Rogan and Cruz are giggling about Joe being bald and sweaty.

Anik: "Vannata is pulling off the bald look..."

He kills it stone dead and there's like a 10 second silence after the comment

Get the hell rid of Anik

If Anik is nothing he should be easy to tune out while he reads the company lines. But on the other hand no one is going to hype corn nuts like Goldie did.

It boggles my mind that Woodley could rewatch this and still complain that the fans don't like him.

Could be because the other guy did even less than he did the whole fight and yet many fans are exclusively chanting "gently caress Woodley"

It is even more egregious for Thompson because the only way he was going to win was with volume and he did as little as possible the whole fight.

The way he cracked up at Wonderboy's "why you gotta be so mean" was pretty funny and endearing to me.

What kills me about Tyron is that I bet there's actually a cool chill dude hiding in there that people might like, but he keeps trying to do this "I'm the greatest welterweight in the world" persona and it comes off as so forced.

Tyron seems like he hates every bit of the business he's in; that he just wants to be doing something else completely different. I think that is fine. I want him to go do something else too.

I thought Wonderboy was a Serra/Longo guy but I didn't see them in his corner. I'm also a week or two behind on the Serra-Cast. Can someone help me out?

Matt Serra takes TRT and loves to gently caress his wife. Raging Al's cashing those commission checks from Raging Al's Realty. Serra said, "we're goin to Nashville." So, fingers crossed tickets aren't too expensive.

Well, Matt Serra's the only one who talks about loving his wife. And making GBS threads. Frank Mir's not allowed to gently caress his wife, Bryan Callen talks about loving everyone but his wife, and Ariel has children so maybe?

I *think* it's a win-win for the UFC because I think they get to cut the loser. Obv hoping Jake murders him, we were talking and stylistically it's a great fight for him.
