1. They should give out BMF/the peoples main event medals to the winning fighters of fights voted on by the fans during fight week.

   belts are too much to give and sorta undermine the real champions of the division/fight card, but a gold or maybe bmf belt colored medal would be a pretty cool addition to ufc ppvs. ofc adding a cash incentive would have the fighters promoting themselves, their fight and the entire card as a whole.

2. That Ariel interview with ckb was a great watch each person felt real and genuine and it showed how much they love and respect each other

3. Dustin Poirier vs Brad Riddell would be fireworks

4. What is the subs sentiment on the decision of o malley and yan ?

5. r/mma will never convince me Magny is a great fighter. Not after I watched him get manhandled by Chiesa. Also I still think the game plan Larkin used 6 years ago would still work on him.

6. do you think are there are any ufc fighters if there are fighters who won’t be in the ufc come passed years from now?

7. Boys, get you some choccy milk and listen to the Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 soundtrack. You deserve it.

8. Every champ from flyweight to MW has to fight up two divisions what’s the highest level fighter each champ beats.

9. Any recommendations against hurting ears (inside) and throats after Jiu-Jitsu? Or is this just in the beginning (im in 4 months)?

10. Izzy bout to have a fairytale ending like Cinderella

11. UFC is dead. Jake Paul beating your UFC GOAT is proof it was hype all along. Anderson Silva is better now back on steroids then he was 2 days out of surgery at 44 vs Cormier and Izzy who couldn’t hurt him, well Izzy did once with a jab and that’s it. Jake Paul UFC GOAT Slayer, line up GSP next who had 0 finishes whole title run. That’s an easy KO for Jake the UFC slayer. Usman will be 10 times easier than Woodley too. The truth does hurt sometimes.

12. I think after like 18ish hardcore years of MMA I finally don’t care as much now. I used to feel bad if i missed any card and slowly I missed and don’t care. I’m actually greatful UFC is so regional now that I literally don’t care if I miss live events now. Neil Magny passing GSP is proof how watered down it is. I still remember him getting knocked out cold by Rory’s boyfriend on TUF, the dude who said “he’s wondering what hairstyles his friends have now since he’s locked in the house”. thank you UFC for killing my love finally of this sport, I’ll still always watch if it’s free on TV and keep up to date cause betting but I’ll never pay again, can’t morally give Dana a dollar and feel good about it. Once he’s gone if ever I’ll support em I guess. Good night buddehs

13. Some interesting HW title facts:

    – Mark Coleman coined the phrase “ground and pound” in reference to how he predicted he would beat Maurice Smith – “ground him and pound the goddamn shit out of him”

    – Maurice Smith was the first and only HW champ with a losing record (6-7 after beating Coleman for the belt)

    – Tank Abbot got a title shot off of a 2 fight skid, Justin Eilers got an interim title shot despite being KO’d in the first round in his previous fight

    – Undefeated HW champs: Coleman (6-0), Couture (4-0), Sylvia (16-0), Velasquez (9-0)

    – Randy Couture: 1st two-time HW champ, 1st three-time HW champ, 1st HW champ to defend the belt twice

    – Pedro Rizzo challenged for the belt 3 times and went 0-3

    – 2 Champs were stripped for failed drug tests: Tim Sylvia and Josh Barnett

    – Andrei Arlovski was the first interim HW champ, Sylvia vs Arlovski was the first Heavyweight Title Trilogy

    – Tim Sylvia was the first HW champ to defend the belt three times

    – Brock Lesnar challenged for the belt with a record of 2-1

14. my favourite fight dynamic is Fighter too stubborn to stop going for submissions from bottom position vs Fighter who simply beats the shit out of the other fighter from top position

    either results in entertaining ko/tko (hooker vs entwistle, le vs tonon) or entertaining submission (craig vs antigulov, craig vs ankalaev, craig vs fuckin anybody who got submitted tryna gnp him)

15. I feel the Chandler V Poirier fight is stupid and does nothing to move the division in any meaningful away. That being said, anyone think Chandler will nuke Poirier in the first?

16. so it’s been about a year or so since i’ve had espn+, and i don’t recall reading too many complaints during the livethreads recently, anyone got some anecdotal experience on how the service has been lately?

17. How many more fights do you think Conor will have before he actually retires?

18. Alistair might have only went to a decision in eight fights but Valentijn only went to a decision twice. Them brothers are a kill or be killed type.

19. Puffy tiddy Izzy is going to be the one on skates
