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.

Compared to how he used to look Kron seemed like a genuinely capable MMA fighter there, with some good Diazesque boxing moments, so it will be fun to see him fight only Japanese lightweights for the rest of his career.

That was a lot of fun and I cannot wait for World MMA Champion Baruto.

Seems like Kimura botched some sort of rush down. Maybe he thought he could throw Bennett off?

Bennett's celebration was certainly something.

Arrested something in the neighborhood of 19 times on charges from possession to domestic assault to assault on a pregnant woman, once got arrested for attacking one of his training partners from behind with a metal bar, etc. Dude has had a rough life.

He also locked his girlfriend in the trunk of his car, and attacked a sparring partner from behind with a pipe after he got the better of him in sparring.

He is the best. He is so earnest. My favorite line is when he says they are "making a rear naked choke". He makes the grindy boring fights fun.

:swoon: but also :stare: but also no way is she 245. The biggest female bodybuilders clock in at like 180.

E: I thought that was a typo but holy poo poo she is 245 for real. And 6'5.

Gabi is what everybody talks about Cyborg being; she's obviously been on many drugs but even without them she'd very likely be too big for any weight class a legitimate promotion is running for women.
