That's actually worked quite well for Nate himself. Getting knocked out by Thompson didn't count because Thompson was making bitch rear end lady sounds.

I absolutely love how this makes the loss less humiliating using the Diaz rubrik

You posted an image of a custom character in baldurs gate 3, whose character creator allows enough options that your character can have varied skin pigmentation, like the athlete your character is named after and whose inclusion in ufc games previously had inspired other fighters with a similar skin pigment complexion to pursue to pursue the sport which builds to the importance of inclusiveness in gaming and similar media.

Making a character look like they have vitiligo and naming him Scott Jorgensen is passé.

Make a character who looks like Tra Telligman and I'll be impressed.

B-League Weekend Round-Up (08/05/2023)

PFL Playoffs!

ONE Championship!

Paul vs Diaz!

PFL Playoffs start this weekend. Prelims include Billy Elekana, a guy with amateur wins over Bryan “Pooh Bear” Battle and Sullivan Cauley, one of Bellator’s up-and-coming prospects taking on Chuck Campbell, who’s two pro losses are to Tyrell Fortune, another Bellator prospect and Modestas Bukauskas, who is currently riding a 4-fight win streak in the UFC. There’s also Carson Hardman in action, and he’s notable to me because his most recent fight was a win against Super Fight League’s own Bhabajeet Choudhury, which is a name I have not thought about in a long time. We’ve also got Thad Jean, who has an amateur win over PFL 2022 Championship participant Dilano Taylor, taking on Ali Omar, who has a 36-second anaconda choke victory against Jay Ellis back in 2019.

On the main card, there’s a sole non-playoff bout, as Elvin Espinoza brings his 8-0 record with 7 finishes to bear against Bellator veteran Keoni Diggs. In the playoffs proper, we have Light Heavyweight and Featherweight action.

Marthin Hamlet went 2-0 with a Quick Six via face crank, and he takes on Impa Kasanganay, who was also 2-0 in 2023, including a Fast Five by way of arm triangle choke. Also in the 205-lb division, Josh Silveira takes his pair of Quick Six finishes into action against Ty Flores, who won a pair of decisions in the regular season.

Down at Featherweight, sadly Movlid Khaybulaev is out due to injury. Replacing him will be Chris Wade, who went 1-1 in 2023 with a Quick Six guillotine choke, as he faces Gabriel Alves Braga. Braga went 2-0, including a Quick Six when he put Marlon Moraes out of his misery. On the other side of the bracket, Bubba Jenkins went 2-0 this year, including a Quick Six of his own, while his foe, Jesus Pinedo punched his ticket with his knees, knocking out Brendan Loughnane for his lone victory in the regular season.

ONE Championship is back with a pretty solid event. We’ve got some interesting stuff on this card, so let’s peel back the layers and dive right in. Heavyweight action between Marcus Buchecha and the mighty REUG REUG should be an interesting test between a man that punches hard for about thirty seconds and a man who wants nothing more than to flop on his butt.

Speaking of punching hard, JOHN FUCKIN LINEKER is back in action as he takes his murderfists up against the face and torso of Jae Woong Kim. In more striking fun times, Tawanchai PK Saenchai takes on Davit Kiria in 155-lb kickboxing action that should be super fun.

Grappling nerd Mikey Muscumeci will probably submit Jarred Brooks via gabbagooloplata to notch another defense of his submission title.

The main event is another kickboxing bout, with Chingiz Allazov taking on Marat Grigorian. Rad!

The dumbest event of the weekend is saved for Saturday night: Jake Paul vs Nate Diaz. Cee Jay Hamilton, who is 1-2 in Bellator, is making his boxing debut against a 1-3 guy. Nate Diaz’s friend, Chris Avila, is taking on Jeremy “Hasn’t won by stoppage since 2018” Stephens.

There’s also somehow a legitimate fight, as Amanda Serrano takes on Heather Hardy in a rematch from 2019.

Of course, the real shitshow is the main event, as professional moron Jake Paul takes on former part-time MMA fighter and full time weed enjoyer, Nate Diaz. Is it going to be incredibly stupid? Yes, of course. Should anyone willingly watch it? Probably not! Am I the type of horrid goblin that’s gonna watch it anyway? yeah, unfortunately.
