I am watching the second round of the Punk/Jackson fight right now and remember that time that CM Punk said that he was strongest on the ground because of his BJJ background, which consisted of him watching the Gracie University DVDs? lol

I can't find it, bhere's this wonderful gif of Punk in a WWE match attempting to put an armbar on a guy who is in no way fighting him, and he still fails at it.

cm punk is a celebrity charity case who has no business fighting anything other than courtcases but if a guys willing to get his rear end beat to earn you a paycheck you could at least show enough respect to hit him til the ref stops you.

what mike jackson did was shameful and hes a disgrace to this beautiful sport

Perhaps he was going for "In the fifth your rear end goes down" but then forgot

A true renaissance man


Mike Jackson knew he was never fighting in the UFC again, no matter his performance (except maybe to go in and get brain damaged by a real fighter), and his post-fight interview indicated as much, so perhaps he figured that he'd do something to get attention which he could later monetize as an MMA Journalist (tm).

Look sitting on a guy's head and then wiping your rear end on his face is a very deadly maneuver

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Greasing is a crime we haven't heard of in a while

The even sadder part is that he's been 'cultivating' that 'persona' for months, maybe even a year, now. That's the end result of a lot of practice.

It was astounding how hateable she was on an Ultimate Fighter series full of...interesting personalities.

How did Esparza mark up Gadelha’s face? Did she do something different than spamming the same punch combo?

Carla did drop her with a right hand in the first round. It forced Gadelha to change tactics, she was confident in her striking to start but then went to a wrestling heavy attack after getting hurt.
