Like the UFC's own theme, it has nothing to do with being good and everything to do with being fuggin sweet

Stephens is such a fuckwit, he should get fined or cut (should've cut already)

Edit: Huh that was maybe not the full description of the Klose situation I expected. I figured pulling the hell out of something while tripping back not this. Either way gently caress Stephens J33uk fucked around with this message at 01:05 on Apr 18, 2021 |

Is that the first time a fighter has injured his opponent at the weigh in face off?

lol people saying stephens should be cut for shoving a guy. fighters have been shoving each other at weigh-ins since weigh ins were a thing, was he supposed to know that he was going to hurt the guy? it was a freak accident. its like saying the production guy that laid down the cable that tony ferguson tripped on and got hurt should be fired. get a grip

Kish needs to go to her special anti-grappling move, it's time.

I agree that Jeremy shouldn't get special punishment for doing something that is actively publicized. Whether they should start punishing that is a different conversation, but Jeremy didn't do anything out of line.

he assaulted a dude on camera and injured him lmao. im an iowan who loves stephens as a fighter but to say he did nothing wrong when he literally committed a crime is funny to me. does it happen? sure. would klose be a giant colby nerd pressing charges? sure. should the ufc punish him for loving up a card? i doubt they will but i wouldn't be pissed if they did. you don't need to do shenanigans to sell a show on basic cable

I dont think he should be cut but give Klose his purse

ufc not gonna do poo poo, they literally used the shove as their title card on their youtube video for the weigh-ins lol

I just want them to cut him because i think he's a shithead. But yea, consequences should be different when you're causing bout-cancelling injuries, that's not just a harmless push anymore, obviously.

So having only been exposed to Askren through his brief run in UFC, is he a performance artist who doesn't actually know how to fight and just portrays a character who is supposed to be a world class fighter, and this is all some Kaufmann-level genius act?

Ben Askren is a legitimate fighter who just had a bad UFC run. He would wrestle you to paste and you either found it extremely boring or like myself.... found it to extremely rule as all his opponents just lost their mind trying to get this man off of them for 25 minutes.

But yeah he would be the create-a-fighter who just poured attribute points into wrestling.

Askren trains with CM Punk. I'm sure Ben picked up a thing or two about selling

I know no one here is dumb enough to poo poo on the guy for getting injured from that push but just thinking about it today- given that was the weigh in (not sure if that push was the ceremonial one or real one, but regardless) all the fighters showing up are going to be the most gaunt, frail, injury prone and hosed up they're ever gonna be. like literally one or two glasses of water from mortal kombat "finish him" dizzy. I never thought about it til now but with all that going on, they really should start punishing fighters for any kind of excessive shoving like that one

Maybe it shouldn't be normalized that fighters can assault each other the day before they legally do it in a cage for money because look, consequences

BJJ Scout is a very good youtube channel when it comes to grappling (also some pretty good striking videos) and he had a whole series on Askren. I watched them when he joined the UFC and he seems to be a pretty good fighter, but he's never focused on striking and he's old. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKb7D4fR_VOgs8WBoqYmO_G8MZexCK48_

Jerusalem posted:And then he accepted a BOXING match? yeah i think he just wanted the paycheck, he's never given a single poo poo about striking or any part of MMA that wasn't wrestling and i don't think that changed for this fight. his hip is also completely hosed. i think he knew exactly what was gonna happen but for 600k or however much getting punched by a journeyman isn't that bad. compare to someone like gilbert burns who took to striking like a fish takes to water.
