is there no GDT?

Sorry, I just bought a house and was moving, painting and unpacking for the last month and a half. This will be the first event I've even seen live in that time, but I'm still running around too much to write anything. I'll be back on the ball for Hunto vs the Black Beast, if whoever wants to do the card for this one.

I understand Mighty Mouse's Instagram is not as cool or full of pictures of people I'd like to gently caress as other fighters, and in this modern world we live in that means he is not promoting himself to the fullest extent of his abilities, but that doesn't change the fact that the UFC themselves have done virtually nothing to promote him or other flyweights.

They already do tiered pay scales for drawing more people to PPV so again that's bullshit that he can't get points.

Yes but the point there is that based on what little we know, there is a minimum threshold your fights need to draw to earn points, and Mighty Mouse's haven't historically crossed that

Like reach, height is a factor as much as the fighters make it a factor. Some fighters are great at using their height advantage and other shorter fighters are great at dealing with it. See Hunt vs Struve and also Struve vs Barry.

Are you guys excited to see Roy Jones Jr. fight Floyd Mayweather on Butterbean's shoulders like that Frankenstein/Flea Man boss for Castlevania on Nintendo?

Definitely watch this but also watch the version that's just every flurry spliced together with the Doom music playing, which is how i feel George Lucas truly intended it to be seen

In an effort to save money and improve fairness to all fighters, wme has made the move away from zuffa's selective multimillion dollar "executive promotion retirement program" and instead replaced it with giving all fighters commemorative early 2000s forums signatures

Now that we saw Fedor and Matt Mitrione die but only Fedor die legally, I hope you guys are ready for some less funny Sunday night fights.

Currently Conor McGregor is spending his riches on a pyramid to be buried in after his boxing career and the number two contender is mythological Russian figure Baba Yaga, so with Tony Ferguson the clear de facto number one lightweight, I suspect the idea for WME was to have him trash talk the winner of Chiesa-Lee who they were hoping would be a viable challenger in the near future. I think it backfired terribly and didn't really work in any context of hyping a theoretical fight, but I am choosing to believe that's what the thought process was.

They sure seem to like feeding Ngannou beat up former champions coming off of bad losses.

Just a few years ago Cain and Junior were held up as MMA's Ali and Frazier, and now look at then both. It's really sad.

I can see how you would think this, but the line "I wish I knew how to quit you" refers to a forbidden love, not literal alcohol abuse
