I don't judge fighters for their fanbases but holy poo poo Fedor's fanbase is (was?) the worst in the sport's history and probably always will be

That said I enjoyed him as a fighter and I still don't think calling him the heavyweight GOAT is all that crazy (even if I disagree)

I did not know about this one.

Card sounds great, will make for some good Sunday post-f1 watching

It's from this excellent article

is there a bigger threat to jones' title at heavy weight other than himself?

Now that Francis is gone, no. I think him vs Stipe is an extremely intriguing match up but I'll hate when Jon inevitably wins it

Also, man, I'm really happy for Alexa Grasso but if she gets past the rematch Erin Blanchfield is going to kill her.

It's cool that there's very interesting matchups at W125 that don't include Valentina

I know instant rematches for dominant champs is the standard and no one deserves it more than Valentina but I'm liking the sound of Grasso-Blanchfield more and more

Gane losing to Jones isn't a huge shock but I figured he'd last longer against Jon than loving Chael Sonnen lmao

Fighters should always throw a dick kick or two because they never get a point taken for the first or second.

Seems like you always get at least one free foul each, so might as well cash in your free eye poke/dick kick/cage grab per fight

Maybe cage grab isn't a good example, you can sometimes do that all night and only have the ref lightly slap your hands a few times

Usually if you kick someone square in the kneecap with your own shin, you come out worse right? I don't think I've seen anything like that before.

Page has some wildly violent finishes on his record, drat

Badr Hari keeps getting his rear end kicked and Alistair doesn't get any wins from cheating, win-win to me

GSP unified the belts in the rematch against Matt Serra, I guess that kinda counts

That's weird, I see it fine. It's that collegiate wrestler's mom who lost her poo poo yesterday

I don't think anything in MMA will ever blow me away as much as Serra-GSP 1, it still seems surreal

Extremely good poo poo, Carl

Between the ref, the losing fighter's corner, and the winner snapping an unconscious person's arm, everyone kinda sucks here

They'll absolutely make it an Undisputed Title if Colby's involved

To think this guy was a huge influence in first helping me get into MMA, and now I'd rather never hear him speak on anything again
