there was also that time during the fox deal when ariel was paid by both fox and ufc to be a "journalist" and acted like getting paid by the ufc to cover the ufc wasn't any kind of conflict of interest

Also, the more damning thing about the Brock Debacle (Brockbacle) is him getting booted also meant Esther Lin and Casey Leydon were barred from covering UFC in person for a bit and they are good and cool, which isn't fair to them

Debrockle was right there!

How did they end up a draw? Why is Dana so angry beyond his usual level of anger?

Does this mean Vacant, the true champ champ, now has a title defense? How many times had they successfully defended the belt before?

If you mean just cases where the title was vacant going into a fight and remained vacant afterward, other than last night I think the only UFC case was in 2002; Jens Pulver dropped the lightweight title over pay disputes, the UFC held a tournament to fill the vacancy and it ended in BJ Penn and Caol Uno going to a draw, which the UFC initially said it might do something about and then 'something' wound up being just pretending the belt didn't exist for like four years.

Something like this yeah. Vacant defending the belt by winning a tournament. Excellent

COMBINED UFC/B-LEAGUE THREADS: This change works pretty well. The traffic wasn't overwhelming or anything.

COMBINED UFC/B-LEAGUE GDTS: This was fine? I don't get to watch many cards now so maybe others feel different.

MY ENDLESS WORD VOMIT: I like them but scale it back if you feel yourself burning out!

OKAY, BUT HOW ARE YOU DOING: Everything is hosed as normal. Someone decided I'm their posting enemy this year and were grudge posting so that was a weird experience. How are you, Carl?

I wouldn't mind paying for UFC if it wasn't so damned expensive. Without linking to any :files:, I hate the streaming sites. Just non-stop nazi comments kills my buzz for good cards. I hate that my options are: overpay for mediocre quality or immerse myself in the absolute worst of humanity. Why are so many MMA fans the most racist pieces of poo poo you've ever seen? (This is rhetorical)

You can close/mute the chat on most streams or just full screen the video? The same happens with most sports streams, internet comment sections are garbage

So far I've remembered

  • That time he got in the best shape of his life to fight anderson silva and got smoked in a round and then failed a drug test
  • That time he was used as a dummy for George Dillman by investigative reporters
  • That time he had an NC (accidental headbutt/cut) against Krystof Soszynski and the scar was shaped like a K

He never fought for a title (from memory he had losses to 5 fighters who held UFC titles at some point in their careers), and he earned exactly 1 FOTN performance bonus through his whole UFC run, and he only failed drug tests a couple a times, but in a weird way he was the most median, central, average, representative MMA fighter out there. What's an MMA fighter? Stefan Bonnar. For better, or for worse.

Was it Bonnar who did like a street fighter pose covered in blood looking at the camera after a win? Really sad news
