in three years imagine just how washed up the currently washed up fighters at 185 will be. joe riggs will have evolved from tapping out to takedowns to tapping out to clinches, karo will get tko'd by slipping after a leg kick and do the darth vader "NOOOOOOOOOOO", drew ficket will probably die of alcoholism, jt$ will probably also die of alcoholism, chris leben will probably also die of alcoholism, cody mckenzie will probably also die of alcoholism, etc

Joe Riggs has been tapping out to takedowns for 5 years now

Maybe not the biggest combo, but the the barrage of vertical elbows to the body that finished him off still make me wince.

Alright, for real actual penance. Give me a terrible but decent length match to watch and I'll provide live commentary on it while drunk. I won't be able to do it until Saturday night Aus time, but I'll do it and it'll be the analysis of a dude who knows very little about MMA you can all laugh at.

:toxx: it gets done by midnight Saturday PST or I'll happily eat a ban for my dumbness.

When Mickey most likely dismantles Punk who can he possibly face next with his 3-0 professional MMA record?

They'll probably make him go on TUF if he wins

CM Punk is really tough honestly, his training partners werent lying about that. He lasted way longer than he shouldve

I was impressed by his composure and defense for sure.

dont even fink about it posted:

Back when it looked like Punk would fight within a year of being signed, wrestling fans were higher on him, but still doubtful because of his age. Then it dragged on and on and the hype videos as depicted featured Punk feeding his chin to sparring opponents and having horrible posture, in addition to reports of him getting whooped off-camera.

You can get good will for telling Vince McMahon to go gently caress himself, but I haven't the foggiest idea why he thought MMA was a good idea when he can't even train properly.

He "trained properly" and he looked perfectly competent in his fight, but he looked like an incredibly unathletic 40-year-old being torn up by a hot prospect half his age who'd been training twice as long as him. It doesn't matter how well you train or how much willpower you have, MMA is still a sport which requires athletic ability in order to succeed.
