Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

UFC has removed a large and fairly notable list of fighters from it's listings:

Rick Story, Lorenz Larkin, Takeya Mizugaki, Sean O'Connell and Cole Miller are among the list. Hopefully this means Larkin to Bellator.

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

For once, Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather appear to be on the same page.

While nothing has been signed, The Irish Sun is reporting that the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) lightweight title holder and the future boxing Hall of Famer have agreed on financial terms to make a boxing match happen. The report notes a third party is serving as a roadblock from the bout being signed.

I'll believe it when they're both standing in the ring across from each other.

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

The UFC has notified all coaches/camps that they'll no longer be providing file footage for them to study for upcoming fights, instead it's up to them to sign up for Fight Pass on their own dime.

Gotta get that $4 billion.

The speed this company is headed down the shitter is incredible.

At least give them a free FP membership. This is a whole 'nother level of cheap.

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

At least with season 4 the guys in the house were mostly there before the UFC really took off in popularity. So they were new for a lot of folks. This just feels like the scrub bunch. Joe Stevenson is maybe the least evolved fighter I've ever seen.

Add Kyogi Horiguchi to the list of top ten ranked fighters whose UFC contract hasn't been renewed. He's officially a free agent.

The JRE with Dominick Cruz is must watch as soon as they upload it in full.

Quick thoughts on what made it great? I'll watch it this weekend.

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

Cruz is getting deep on all sorts of subjects. Depression, his injuries...the realness in this is p. incredible. He's also still hurt and has to do stem cell treatments on his feet.

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

I know that there's always the saying that no fighter ever goes into a fight at 100% but I feel like this rings true for Cruz about all else. With the surgeries and layoff length that dude has been through it's only get worse the further into his career he goes.

Cruz is the GOAT

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

Cat Zingano launched some social media thing where she gets a little revenue when people click on the ads/articles/etc etc

She posted and explanation on instagram about it and I have to say it was kid of depressing listening to her and realize she feels bad about even having to do this sort of thing but she is probably getting paid so little and what not that she is resorting to some side income to help take care of her son.

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

He's around the same age as Lashley when he started his MMA career. I could see him using his wrestling to grind out cans on Bellator shows.

Damn Schaub just kept hitting it out of the park in the video, that link is time stamped in the Reddit link. Lots of great points, I'm especially glad that he brought up nobody buys a PPV to watch Dana White. Really worth listening to.

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

MacKenzie Dern missed weight for the LFA card tonight. Only her third pro fight and it's the second time she's done this. Not a good look.

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

There is a wonderful MMA Conspiracy Theory thread on Reddit right now. It's making me want to go back and re-watch fights to see if I pick up on anything.

Re: MMA General Discussion 2017

The "UFC let Vitor fight Jones while roided to the gills because the UFC hated Jones" is the most likely of the theories to be true.

As is the Vitor/Rumble theory.

I remember watching Belfort/Rockhold and being like "Why the fuck did Luke just nod at hi......OH MY GOD IT'S A WORK".
