Did MFC ever make good on its threat to kill its LW division for reasons that only made sense to their crazy owner?

1st AD posted:Haha, so Bob Meyrowitz is talking about starting up YAMMA and the name was created as a result of a misunderstanding - as he explains it, he was in a restaurant pitching the idea to Russian investors and they couldn't understand why a curved pit was even necessary, so he got a frying pan and they all exclaimed, knowingly, "yama!" So he thought it meant frying pan. Later on he was talking about YAMMA with Oleg Taktarov and was corrected and yama actually meant "burial pit." The frying pan showed them why the curved pit was necessary?

1st AD posted:I didn't realize you could get ranked #4 by not losing as badly as you did the first time to the champ. Also, I can't really think of any time Tate actually did anything resembling offense. Like just because Joe Rogan goes OHHHHHHHH! doesn't mean that you actually did anything important. She did better than anyone imagined she would against Rousey so until one of the people below her wins again I can see why that loss wouldn't move her down. Losing to the champ shouldn't hurt your ranking too much, they are clearly the best.

The key for JT to get into the UFC is to talk poo poo about any heavyweights who get booked on a UFC show in Europe and hope for an injury so he can slide right in.

Anyone want to become a judge or resuscitator in the state of Rhode Island? It'll cost you $10. I was going to apply in MA, but it requires you to pay $50 and to pass a course. No thank you, Taxachusetts! http://www.dbr.state.ri.us/documents/divisions/commlicensing/boxing/RA-Occupational_Application.pdf

Bluedeanie posted:I looked into it here in Missouri once and it was $50 per license but I think you just had to apply and pay up and you're good to go. Forums user John Cena (possibly the real life John Cena) got licensed in his state, so he might know better. I am going to apply the second I get a proper photo of myself holding the Coleman Cup so they know I am serious.

Reading results for the recent IGF shows is so weird. Pro wrestling titles defended in shoot matches with worked storylines while aging shoot fighters do worked matches. The only thing that makes sense is Minowa tapping out scrubs.

Triticum Guzzler posted:Honestly I really like what WSOF has going, it's definitely no WEC or Strikeforce, but it feels much more like one of those parallel organisations than Bellator which is mostly preoccupied with tournament stuff WSOF feels like an EliteXC except the understand they will never compete with UFC. So we get some weird freakshow fights and attempts to draw with goofy poo poo, but there's also some good stuff.

I've found Bad Boy's B league fights to be a mixed bag. His first one was real, real sad until his opponent gassed. His last few UFC fights showed he's just not on that level anymore which meant it was hard to have an exciting fight.

attackmole posted:Huerta washed out of the UFC right around when I started paying attention to MMA so I don't know much about him. It looks like he had some legit wins, and if you're can crushing pulling a 6-fight win streak in the UFC is pretty loving hard to do. What happened to him? At the time he wanted out. I think he had acting aspirations at the time? I just remember it was known he wasn't going to resign and he faced Gray Maynard on his way out maybe to make sure he lost.

Bubba Smith posted:Jon Fitch looked good in the Hallman fight but I'm still disappointed he wasn't able to get the finish even at a heavier catchweight against a man with a lot of miles on him. Arlovski's WSOF run was better than Fitch's. Fitch looked like complete garbage in his second fight and lost his first in a minute. Andrei's only loss was to the P4P heaviest man on the planet.
