Fat Twitter Man posted:Artem Lobov explained that the reason he loses fights all the time is because he has to take fights on short notice because people won't book fights for him in advance because they are scared. Not even Trump, Conway, Spicer and Bannon could come up with something like this.

quote:Lobov had a good job with Bank of America and progressing along that path was his priority. With a masters degree in finance already to his name, he was in the process of doing his CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) exams when the success of one of his team-mates convinced him to abandon his aspirations for a career in banking. Hmmmm, wouldn't really say hes followed in Conors footsteps.

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2...n-conor-mcregor Mixed martial arts is the fastest-growing sport on Earth. Beloved by Vladimir Putin and its so-called ‘godfather’, Donald Trump, what does this bloody spectacle say about the world we live in? We took a seat cage-side… Trump not only embraced the sport, he explored the possibility of himself developing a rival to the UFC called Affliction. He signed up a famous Russian fighter, Fedor Emelianenko, close friend of Vladimir Putin, to star in his events. The experiment ended after a couple of promotions but for all his efforts, Trump was inducted as a “visionary” into the New Jersey State Martial Arts Hall of Fame (Trump is known to have “fought” just once in public himself: at WrestleMania XXIII in 2007, he body-slammed the wrestling promoter Vince McMahon outside the ring before, bizarrely, shaving his hair (an encounter preserved for historians on YouTube). In the opening skirmishes of his political war on nuance, Trump seems to have identified the UFC, or at least fans of it, as likely fellow travellers. “It’s sort of like – somebody dies!” he said, when asked about the sport’s appeal. ‘I’ve never seen anything like it … It’s not like, ‘Oh, how are the judges voting?’ It’s like, you know, somebody just succumbs.” That particularly adolescent – now presidential – fantasy is never quite as simple in reality. Watching the UFC up close, without the edits and the highlights, you have a strong sense of the vulnerability of the fighters as well as their prowess. They look as likely to have been bullied as to be bullies. The strangest moment in a long evening at the O2 comes with the farewell fight of 38-year-old Brad Pickett, a native East Ender, who has been a stalwart of the UFC for nearly a decade, and who has earned the nickname “One Punch”. In case you were in any doubt of his cockney connections, Pickett enters the arena to Chas and Dave’s song Wallop, wearing a string vest, braces, his customary trilby, and reading a paper (I’m guessing not the Observer). He is, given the valedictory nature of his performance, also in tears. He is fighting a lithe Ecuadorean kickboxer, Marlon Vera, who is at least a foot taller than him and just over half his age. For a couple of rounds the farewell fight seems to be going to plan; in the third, however, as Pickett tries to land a trademark punch, Vera knocks him out with a vicious kick to the jaw. Pickett tries to get up and fight on, but is stopped by the referee. In tears again, he leaves his trilby in the centre of the Octagon. Later in his press conference, he is still bemoaning the way that the fight ended. He doesn’t believe he had lost consciousness. He’d told the referee: “If you are going to stop it make sure I’m stiff”, but he hadn’t listened. Still choked, he speaks a little about his long history with the sport, how at his first MMA fights on Portsmouth pier he didn’t even get paid: “Just a free seat for my mum and dad. It wasn’t even a sport really, at all then,” he says, “but look at it now, all around the world.” Lid fucked around with this message at 16:50 on Mar 27, 2017 |

Weidman takes rounds 1 and 2, gets cream crackered in the third. It'll be good.

JON JONES' PUBLICIST: "I don't know Jon Jones, how about holding a meet-the-fans event and getting up close and personal? They love that!" JON JONES: "What a good idea! And do you know what else fans love more than meeting the stars? Paying $99 or more to do it!"

Memento posted:JON JONES: "Hey Jon Jones' publicist, how do I, Jon Jones, get back into the hearts of the fans?" I was leaving a Buffalo Wild Wings outside of St. Louis after a fight in 2011 or so and got handed a flyer from someone about a local gym hosting Randy Couture, and the gate to that was something like $120, but at least it included a copy of his book and probably a lesson on elbowing a punching bag or something.

I'd pay $100 to go to a seminar with a pro fighter if it came with a copy of their book and some guided rolling time - I wouldn't expect to roll with them, obviously. But $100 for "hi there I'm Jon Jones thanks for coming out" *pose for a photo* move on is loving weak. Also, quote:You & your guest will receive an 8"x 11" autograph picture or item you bring (no belts, offensive items & Jon Jones has the right to refuse any item in which you will get a picture autograph) while you stand with Jon Jones. lol Memento fucked around with this message at 00:41 on Mar 28, 2017 |

Yeah it seems dumb to most people to pay so much for an autograph but there is an entire comic book convention circuit, I mean just go to http://wizardworld.com/ and click on "autograph" under any of the names. $65 for Evan Peters, aka "the kid that got beat up in MMA movie Never Back Down" but only $40 for "Dexter's dead dad from the show Dexter"
