If I had any money I'd commission you to write a book - basically a collection of all of your posts with a short recap of how the event actually went after each one - with some extra pages for licensed photos of the actual event and the wild things that happened

kind of like an unofficial history of the ufc era from the start of your posts to today


I mean we could start a go fund me...

there have been nonzero leatherbound books made up out of posts on these very forums, so there's precedent

Michael Page is the guy who rolled a pokeball at a KO'd opponent. I can't wait to see him in the octagon

Not just a ko'd opponent, a man who just got kneed so hard his skull broke and ended his career

I'm not sure how I feel about a fighter sincerely thanking his opponent for not killing him. When he's back on his homestead building a barn 3 days later.

Kind of feels like the gladiatorial combat has somehow become more Roman than it used to be.

i wish we learn enough about gladiators and poo poo to learn what their equivalent of a camouflaged waffle house hat would beo


god what a dogshit snipe

A jet lagged, stoned, 3AM list of my most memorable things of the year

  • Derrick Lewis with the immediate flying knee KO
  • Robbie Lawler retiring on a beautiful KO
  • TKZ being serenaded off into retirement
  • Grasso taking the back and subbing sevchencko for the belt
  • I'm pretty sure that one dude who had like 7 fights cancelled on him finally fought this year and I'm very proud of him for it
  • oh also the time the really lovely person with horrible opinions got their entire course of their life changed by a punch. lol lmao

TKO, Carl, and all y'all are always making this hell sport enjoyable keep it up pals
