Stripped screws the piece of shit.
I really like MMA because it’s a safe place gay guys like us can just hang
Israel Adesanya is fucking impressive man. Who else has had a faster climb through the ranks?
Leon is only 30. People talk about his boring point fighting style but forgot that Usman was decisining people at one point as well until he got better. Leon is still relatively young and can still improve to be a more “exciting” fighter.
I hate when fighters don’t have nicknames, like jesus use an ounce of creativity please
Uncle Chael must be a redditor no with how up-to-date he is with MMA events?
720,000 people in this country have died from Covid and Joe Rogan still has the balls to say “it was just a mild cold”
If Gilbert Burns shit in the woods, would Ariel Helwani hear it?
I agree with Belal, Sean Strickland is one gigantic piece of trash
This ones a banger guys: [Rodtang vs Williams](https://youtu.be/KfcCWRVQ7hQ)

A bit sad to see it end so unceremoniously with no goodbye episode or anything, but probably for the best. Bisping’s solo content is leagues ahead imo and he’s at his best talking pure fights. A podcast with Felder or someone (maybe DC?) could be incredible
Alexander Gustafsson’s last 2 wins were Jan Blachowicz and Glover Teixeira
The Believe You Me Podcast has ended. Bummed.
I feel kinda bad for fighters like Mighty Mouse and Lioness Nunes
Imagine being so much better than your competition that people think you’re not good lmao
First day of sparring this Sunday, anyone got tips or advice?
Serious question guys, I’m aware that this is not technique and training Tuesday but this question popped into my head during bjj class today and I forgot to ask the instructor and it’s killing me to know the answer. When rolling, and you have somebody in your guard, maybe a high guard, mount or even a triangle choke, should you save it for after class or are you allowed to blow a big, wet fart on them? If so, does this technique have a name? Thanks for your consideration guys, any feedback is appreciated. 🙏🏽
Super excited, Julius Anglickas is fighting the main event in Bellator 268, he’s from my gym. We have a handful of pro fighters, but this is the biggest fight from the gym in a while.
I know he’s the underdog, but I’m 99% sure if he can get the fight to the ground he’s going to win.
Exactly how good is Strickland?
Looking back on it now Jorge Masividal challenging for the title twice in a row was kind of a weird moment in UFC history
Correct me if I’m wrong but has the ufc moved away from signing Bellator fighters? I feel like we’d see an occasional one sprinkled in but since dwcs we haven’t seen any
Bruh i just got an additional $1100 check in the mail for my tax return that I did not expect. Swanging and banging is on me this weekend boyos

Genuinely excited for Bruno Silva on this next card, and I like watching Aspen Ladd
Anyone else got any fun fighters on this upcoming card outside of those two
Prediction tournament is stupid. I use critical thinking and come like 693th, pick random shit and dead set come first.
Sean Strickland is 30 but he’s had a 13 year fighting career. This crazy son of an onion made his debut in 2008 when he was 17.
If Ben fought Leon instead of Masvidal I would put a lot of money that Ben bullies Leon for 3 rounds.

Good em song choice for that highlight reel Nate
The mechanisms of perpetuity in a ufc champions contract are brutal.
I’m generalizing and I know this doesn’t work 100% but it feels like Americans focus more on athleticism/S&C over technique where it’s vice versa with Europeans.
Snyder – Athleticism although he still has good technique.
Sadulaev – Technique
Wilder – lift weights
Fury – Technique
Khabib – Technique
Fedor – Technique
Coleman/Randleman – Athleticism
The Japanese seems like they focus more on technique over S&C but they lose.
I joined an mma gym after a decade plus out of martial arts and tearing my achilles playing rugby in 2018
I feel alive, it feels great
Do people realize that Masvidal is literally the best striker Leon has faced in his whole career and at that by a very large margin?
I’m starting to feel sorry for Brandon Shawb.
Looks like Kevin Lee and Fiziev were traning together, still would of liked to see that fight.
