Digital Jedi posted:"Wait, USADA? You guys actually drug test your people? And tell the truth to the public? And even have punishments for them?" usada is a thin tarpaulin to cover the ufc's rear end, iirc you get to miss 3 random drug tests per year with no consequences so if you're doing roids in cuba or whatever and get called in mid-cycle you can just go whoops, i'll come in for the next one, i promise.

crepeface posted:i'm inviting a bunch of casuals to the UFC easter weekend, how likely is it to be a snorefest? people know of masvidal from the 3 second knockout, but he's going to be wrestlefucked right? if you start watching from the chris curtis/kelvin gastelum fight they should all be really good though no such thing as a guaranteed good fight. i also think adesanya is gonna try his very best to make it an extremely boring fight but in doing so will probably get himself knocked out again so that will be exciting. i think masvidal getting wrestled is the most likely outcome, but burns doesn't really have bad fights and he's a dope grappler and a madman in the striking so it should still be good.

having his leg bent the wrong way and then tapping the other guy with one working leg has really turned the corner on mokaev for me.

though the last sentence of your post makes me really want a jones/blaydes title fight since he's the only good wrestler left in the division

you're mad if you're not really hype for aljo vs. cejudo. dober vs. frevola is basically guaranteed to be good. jourdain might beat the poo poo out of a gracie which is always a moral victory for the world. but also i haven't paid for a ufc since anderson vs. vitor

Gramps posted:Hey guys I used to post in the mma threads in like 2007. Had a Barnett Av, then Nog, then Roy Nelson's fat tummy (I need that one back actually. This one was a gift from the 'yob) i remember the big country av, i think it was of him on the cage rubbing his big belly? lol that's cool as gently caress. i have no video ripping skills and i'm not in the U.S. but i truly hope they go to a good home for digital preservation. some all time classic stuff in there.

Tangy Zizzle posted:1) slap league stuff sucks he probably came to his senses while getting punched and iirc the headbutt was in the middle of the round, what was he supposed to do? give up and let kelvin pummel him into a TKO? fight for another two minutes and then quit on the stool? then pray the commission will make a reasonable decision and overturn it? i'm not even sure what the solution is but i get that he's pissed. headbutts in general are a huge issue in mma, idk what the solution is other than more use of instant replays and refs needing to be better trained to be facing both fighters side on instead of doing the herb dean lazy bitch walk behind one fighter. it's not like eye pokes that are basically sanctioned cheating, headbutts happen all the time just because people are crashing into each other. having a big head might be the most underrated skill in MMA. it won cejudo a belt. it won figuereido an interim belt. matt serra lost every second of every round to matt hughes except for when he smashed him with his fat head.

CarlCX posted:barely-mobile retiree Tim Sylvia slapping Inaction Bronson for ten bucks in the stockroom of a Costco is just depressing. lol those main events all look dire except for men's division at 155lbs and under, though nunes/pena was hilarious both times so i'm hoping we'll get another comedy masterpiece out of that.

Lid posted:The saddest news possible jfc what's the over/under on how many people die from this before it's banned. or how many people are found to have suffered irreparable brain damage from doing this behind the school when they were teenagers. this is the stupidest mma-adjacent thing that has ever happened.

and no one seems to like it. even UFC fans who are the dumbest people on the planet don't like it. everyone is saying it sucks. and this is what brings dust-necked mark coleman out of retirement. blurgh.

i hate it but i don't think it should be disallowed. someone posted nate diaz choking out some civilian, there was that video of the guy getting his arm broke while unconscious, etc. etc. so i say allowed but at the poster's own peril of being called a massive rear end in a top hat if it's irrelevant or gross. i think this thread is one of the best in SA at self policing. Just Post and let God Sort 'Em Out
