Mostly here to talk about MMA, scroll mindlessly and talk into the void. Watching America unfold with morbid curiosity wondering how badly it will affect Australia, Ireland and the rest of the world.

Congratulations to Belal for no longer being the most boring champion 👏

Rogan is worse than an agent. He's a useful idiot.

Murdering? Like all the muuurderers at the comedy store?

Shocking that people creating a musical about MJ wouldn't touch on the paedophilia allegations. It's almost like they'd rather that wasn't what he was remembered for. Shocking.

If you pay the fighters too much, then they will have no incentive to fight. You have to keep them hungry, it's the bum fights model. Ideally, each fighter would receive half a sandwich to show and the other half if they win. Then Ari would be worth so much more.

Fear the other is gaining a lot of steam in the west, it's worrying how popular Sean strickland is in Australia when it's clearly not because of his fights.
comment in response to post
Yeah, it was like when Din Thomas used to tell Tyron to throw in combination, can he? Lol Maybe fighters are looser in training so the coaches know they have the weapon but when the bright lights are on they get a mental block 🤷‍♂️

I don't think it was Dricus's fault. His only boring fights have a common opponent
comment in response to post
I think its exposing in terms of game planning for him. Avoid the jab, push him backwards and he completely falls apart
comment in response to post
Literally how he looks in every fight. Dricus just stopped running face first into his jab and pushed him backwards. Sean only had a 1,2 and sometimes a teep. Couldn't get his jab going and ran out of ideas instantly.
comment in response to post
He looked exactly like he always looks.

Being a rugby playing farmer may be the best base for fighting

Elite striking
comment in response to post
I don't think its a persona. I did at first, I thought he was a dick I but had his funny moments. The post fight interview after he won the belt was one of the best fighter interviews I'd ever seen, but when he had that homophobic rant last time he fought Dricus I realised it's not an act.
comment in response to post
It was always going to be. It was a 2 fight card and those 2 fights were fine I guess.
comment in response to post
He's a weird dork that talks a big game. He's happy to throw hard against youtubers in sparing, but in the octagon, it's a 1,2 a defensive shell sometimes a teep, then act crazy for the last 10 seconds
comment in response to post
He fought exactly like he always fights. It's all he's got. Dricus just learned not to run face first into his fist and push him backwards, then strickland had nothing. For all his talk this is just who he is
comment in response to post
I don't think the people who like him watch many of his fights. He'll be around a while yet I'd say
comment in response to post
It's all he's got 🤷‍♂️ was enough to freak Izzy out but once Dricus learned not to run face first into his jab and push him backwards, stricklands whole game fell apart
comment in response to post
He's a weird dork. Talks a big game all the time but doesn't have a style that justifies the talk at all. He went from being no 6 in the world to stepping in on short notice and having the fight of his life. I was happy for him. But the spotlight only proved what he is, he's a weird dork.
comment in response to post
Maybe I'm just an old school hater but I never got the Izzy love, 5 or so good performances and a lot of doing just enough to win while talking about how he was going to do something amazing 🥱

I'm pretty sure Luke does one for most ppv's, MMA fighting do. I don't watch them personally but they do good post fight shows too
comment in response to post
As long as he didn't say anything about fighter pay or anything critical of the UFC then it's free speech and he's a good guy.
comment in response to post
Worrying that that's rapidly becoming a popular view point. What a time to be alive
comment in response to post
Lots of watch alongs now, it would be cool if ufc had a fanzone option like sky sports used to do
comment in response to post
I use methstreams mostly but if it's a really good card I'll order the ppv through Kayo, does stream east work well?
comment in response to post
I'm in Australia, the site with the ppvs works fine here
comment in response to post
I usually strem just fights and skip all the promotion in between unless it's a great card. The stream I use can freeze and glitch a bit so it can be annoying
comment in response to post
Is it reliable to watch like that?
comment in response to post
A sport where a champion belittled a reporter for being an LBGT ally, said any man who accepted a queer child was weak(in 2024) and not only faced no backlash, the majority of news about it was UFC fighter destroys "woke" reporter. I'm pretty sure the majority of fans are fine with Trump.
comment in response to post
I've seen clips of them talking about fighting each other and I think there's genuine brotherly rivalry and ego at play. Watching Logan get knocked out should at least be pretty funny.
comment in response to post
The dems hold a lot of accountability. Imagine being so politically incompetent that you paved the way for this. The dems also sold America to corporations and thought they could distract people with social issues, Trump has just removed the veil

Just a normal guy doing a normal hand gesture, nothing to see here

Do you think you'll be notified when it gets put on the burn list?
comment in response to post
They play dirty then act like people shouldn't be upset or hold them accountable.

I found it a bit off putting but have to give him a pass considering the emotional dump he'd be having
