if he retires, dana will just have more time to indulge in his hobbies, chief among them appears to be spousal abuse

Would've thought steroids or joe rogan podcasts

2023 is off to an Annus Horribilus kind of start for Dana:

Which is kind of disappointing, I'll admit to having enjoyed his post-fight press conferences. Although the guy in Paris did good too.

Gunning straight for the ufc.

Is it steroids that make your face all puffy like that ?

Abdul Razak Alhassan (11-5)
Abdul Razak Alhassan was 2016's most exciting new divisional judo-boxer,

This confused the hell out of me because my first thought was "Didn't I watch Razak Al-Hassan's arm explode like 15 years ago? Is he competing under a full name now or something"? :cripes:

This gave me fits for like a year after Abdul's debut.

I do it every time he fights. Looking it up to make sure I'm not crazy I did find out that razak al-hassan doesn't have a wikipedia page

Dana said some stuff: https://sports.yahoo.com/dana-white-francis-ngannou-rejected-143034354.html

Now I’m no expert but I think that there may be a serious flaw in the UFC’s business plan when that’s an option for the heavyweight champion.

"Dana how would you say you're handling this slap in the face, about as well as your wife ?"

Dana should be asked about it at every opportunity

Shooto's still alive and has that Abema contract, Pancrase has a Youtube channel you can subscribe to worldwide to watch their shows but it's $15 a month, lol.

Didn't pancrase switch to unified rules and.kove away from their weird wrestler-palm-slap ruleset?

what are the actual rules for dana white power slapping

can you just palm strike someone in the temple? does it have to hit the cheek? are there rules on not hitting someone with the heel of your palm? undefended strikes to the head are crazy poo poo. streetbeefs was more respectable than this, at least they pretended to care about safety

Is the dana white power slap house like the tuf house where one loss puts you out of the competition or is it an actual league? Being sanctioned, wouldn't anyone who gets KOed or concussed be shelved by the commission for a while?

Fight Lawyer Erik Magraken found this in part of Power Slap's regulations:

Unreal stuff. Imagine having poo poo luck and losing a few coin flips in a row, you could get put in the shadow realm every six days without ever defending yourself or even throwing (?) a slap

According to posts by both men on social media that I'm not going to link here because who cares, the UFC is putting together a new season of The Ultimate Fighter with coaches Conor McGregor and Tony Ferguson. I am quietly waiting for Ferguson to somehow show up in the top fifteen again around the time the season ends.

That's dumb as hell

Can't wait for a totally washed Tony to wrestle the poo poo out of and submit a winded, roided up Conor.

Conor yelling "fookin counter" for 10 minites while his fighter gets picked apart then trying to go rampage on a door but falling over because the door is bigger than him

I wonder how long a full back piece makes it uncomfortable to do guard practice.

Also new thread is getting finalized, so if you've got title recommendations, toss 'em in and jesus christ let's get the gently caress out of January.

I'm already excited for the dogs of february posts

Prime energy drink is the one that people over here in the UK have been going feral over, selling for upwards of £10 a bottle and as high as £100 for a crate. Barely flavoured coconut water, apparently.

KSI and Paul are also conspicuously not actually ingesting the drink on any of the adverts.

Is it? I hadn't noticed anything about it.

Didn't Paul just sign a big deal with one or whatever?
