MalaCloudy Black Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Quote In the case of Amanda Nunes, who is like Chuck Liddell with a clitoris, it’s like—and minus the penis—this is a woman who can move back, forth, and forward, that doesn’t just punch you and hit you in the face. She punches through your head. Oh, Bruce Buffer.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 It's not really surprising. In other news, Woodley and Thompson are doing it again The only downside is that the Welterweight division is still gonna' be stalled a bit. Poor Demian has to wait till like July at least for a title shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 So Mark Hunt has filed a civil suit against the UFC, Dana and Brock. Ronda's home has been vandalised, because MMA fans love keeping it classy. On the bright side, the video of her corner at 207 is priceless.

Benjamin Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Anderson Silva versus Derek Brunson is such an odd match-up, and the saddest part is that it feels so bland to me, compared to the previous fun ones he's been having. Was really hoping they'd go down the Silva / Vitor 2 route, or some other funky thing. It's not bad, it just doesn't feel as fun as Silva's previous three fights.

Yknow, it's still fairly forward thinking. Gives Brunson a chance to bounce back from a loss, whilst also potentially getting a huge name on his résumé, which would be useful to market at a later date. For Silva, he's not looked bad in his losses, so a win over a top ten guy puts him back in the mix. If he loses, he can go back to fighting fun but irrelevant fights.

Benjamin Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Yeah but I liked the fun nonsensical fights for Anderson Silva He fought a welterweight, a middleweight and a light heavyweight. I was hoping he was going to accept a fight against Roy Nelson or something next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris2K Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Cody Garbrandt and TJ Dillashaw are coaching the next season of TUF, called "Redemption". It will feature fighters who have appeared on and even won previous TUF series, and at least one fighter currently on the active UFC roster. Gotta keep throwing stuff against the wall I guess.

Draevyn Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Just got a chance to watch the fights from Sunday. I honestly didn't expect a lot from BJ so I wasn't surprised to see Yair walk all over him. The rest of the fights didn't interest me that much to be honest but I echo the sentiments of Lauzon being a class act. Speaking of class acts, Tim Kennedy talks about his retirement. Spoiler “Sitting in the ER at Saint Michael’s hospital in Toronto, Canada after my fight, I looked up at my buddy Nick Palmisciano who had ridden in the ambulance with me. This wasn’t our first time in this situation. I’d been here a few times in our past decade together. Sometimes for wins and sometimes for losses. The end result always looked the same: Nick carrying five bags that should have been split among three corners and me and my face are bleeding and swollen. “That’s it man,” I said. “We’re all done.” We had talked about it a lot over the past few years. I’d spoken to Nick, to my wife Ginger, and to Greg Jackson and Brandon Gibson ad nauseam about the coming end. No matter how hard I trained, I knew this ride wouldn’t last forever. But saying it out loud definitely brought me both sadness that this chapter was complete and overwhelming relief that it’s a decision I could make without worrying about taking care of my family. I had just lost to Kelvin Gastelum, a really respectful and hard-working young fighter who went out and did all the things I consider myself good at, but did them better. He actually reminded me of me when I was younger, except I was kind of a jerk back then. As losses go, I was kind of happy I lost to a guy like him. A lot of my coaches, friends and fans immediately tried to build me up again. “Kelvin has the right skillset to beat you and it was your first fight back.” “You had ring rust.” “You’re still a top 10 middleweight.” I appreciated their comments and I don’t think they are wrong. I know I am still a good fighter. I know I was away a while. But they didn’t feel what I felt, and that’s being 37. I felt like I was in slow motion the entire match. I felt tired for the first time ever in a fight. I’m the guy that once graduated Ranger School – a place that starves you and denies you sleep for over two months – and took a fight six days later in the IFL and won. I’m the guy that is always in shape. And I was for this fight. I worked harder than I ever have before for this fight. But I wasn’t me anymore. My brain knew what to do but my body did not respond. I’ve watched other fighters arrive here. I’ve watched other fighters pretend they weren’t here. I will not be one of them. I want to thank the military community for their support. I’ll never be able to explain how much you motivated me and how much I always tried to make you proud. I’ve been a professional fighter for two decades, but there was no greater moment for me than winning the main event of Fight for the Troops 3. You made me invincible that night. I will keep fighting for you all until the day I die. I want to thank all of my coaches, from the old Days working with John Hackleman and Chuck Liddell, to all my military buddies who trained with me while I was on active duty, to Greg Jackson, Mike Winkeljohn, and Brandon Gibson now. That you all thought me worthy of the investment of your time means more than you will ever know. I want to thank all of my opponents. Iron sharpens iron and every great victory or crushing defeat occurred because there was someone who trained hard and had the courage to meet me across the cage. I want to call a few guys out in particular. To Luke Rockhold and Jacare: you guys gave me two grinding fights that asked for everything I had. You both made me better and I hope I did the same for you. I hope the two of you keep that Strikeforce chip on your shoulders and get back on top. To Robbie Lawler: you hit me harder than anyone ever has. Seriously, that really hurt. To Roger Gracie: My training for your fight reminded me that I love the gi. Thank you for that. To Rafael Natal: It took tremendous guts to take the Fight for the Troops fight. I will always appreciate you for that and cheer for you every time you fight. To Michael Bisping: I’ve never wanted to beat anyone more than I wanted to beat you, and that motivated me to provide the best version of myself. Best of luck to you going forward, Champ. Finally to my wife: I don’t deserve you and you don’t deserve what I’ve put you through. I could lie to you and tell you it’s all over, but we both know I have already moved onto another super dangerous thing to fill my time, so I’m going to leave it just at “thank you and sorry” for now. So with that, to all of you fighters out there, I am not going anywhere. I love fighting and will always have the heart of a figher. I am committed to growing our sport and taking care of those who are a part of it. As sad as it is for me to walk away, the only thing sadder would be for me to stay because I had no other choice in order to feed my family. Someday the Kelvin Gastelum’s and the Yair Rodriguez’s and the Paige VanZant’s will be sitting in their respective emergency rooms with their respective Nick’s talking about it being over. And when that day comes, I want to make sure their future is secure. I love you all. Thanks for listening. And thank you most of all for giving me the opportunity to do what I love for all these years.“ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
