I tend to think part of it is about the talent base, the higher divisions tend to "lean old" because their becoming progressively weaker so depend more on previous talent and talent which has filtered more though other sports. Aldo was I think showing SOME decline pre Max but I think style did...

The reality tends to be a mix of things IMHO and not always in the same amounts with different fighters. I do think you could argue Anderson shifted style across his career, just within his UFC career I think if you watch say the fights with Franklin, Nate and Hendo then his latter run there is...

Again really this is vastly overplayed, people are acted as if Alex blasted Hill at the point of the non break with Hill supprised at what happened, in reality they touch gloves, start fighting again and then Hill gets popped a few secs latter. Even looking at the punch I don't think he "lost...

The 13K number as well is just so obviously nonsense, the claim is basically that every single adult male killed has been a Hamas solider. Even the Israeli's themselves only claim Hamas had 30-40K fighters which is a relatively small percentage of the adult male population, that means that the...

Nah not really, people treating this like Alex instantly blasts Hill after the break doesnt happen or something which in reality they touch gloves, start fighting again and Hill is knocked down a few seconds latter.

Again I think that gets overplayed a bit for the same reasons, post prequels people wanted to write Lucas out of Starwars. He certainly had plenty of help but the idea he had little to do with the original films sucess is I think nonsense.

He got a lot of help but I think post prequels there was a bit too much focus on downplaying Lucas role when ultimately he was the driving force of the original films. The original he obviously wrote(albeit with plenty of advice) and directed it but with Empire I do think he deserves a lot of...

I think its partly about marketing as well, stand up wars sell better and the UFC promotes fighters who deliver them. Ank is trying to sell himself as a contender rather than the UFC doing Alex/Jiri 2.

Maybe not stone dead KOs but he pretty much beat Strickland, Jiri and Hill with one punch, needed some follow up but they were badly hurt by a single punch when previously they were not in danger at all. Thinking you can stand with Alex and then switch to grappling if things look dicey I'd say...

It could be a factor that Anderson would be more likely to finish following up a knockdown you could argue although Alex has looked pretty strong there as well. I just feel that the "Matrix" hype around Silva was always a lot about mind games, about getting opponents desperate making errors or...

I suspect Silva though probably need to hurt him standing to get it to the ground as he did vs Hendo.

I'd guess it would be quite hard to qualify as Starwars content in the last 5 years has all been on Disney+, how much income does that account for? how much is building a userbase worth? I would argue really though the "Disney Formula" which allowed them to get so big was based on buying out...

I think it is a good advert that whilst horror often tended to get looked down on by arty circles it was actually were a lot of the best female roles ended up being in the 70's and 80's.

I would probably pick Alex personally, Silva was clearly a much better BJJ fighter but this would likely be standing and I never really bought his "Matrix" unhittable image, when people didnt get sloppy he tended to have to walk though offence to land quite a lot.

That could well be the case after a couple of bad finishes.

Honestly though I feel like so much of modern Starwars ignores the tone of the originals, even the first film whilst its a fantasy adventure is full of brutality and very adult banter and Empire Strikes Back which I think really gave the franchise a lot of its depth is quite a dark adult film...

This is a troll account taking the piss out of Izzy fans I take it?

Erebus is covering for his bro Abaia.

You did actually get quite a few directors/cinematographers who started out doing porn in that era, Abel Ferrara most famously.

Good on him but as mentioned I'm not sure the UFC want this.
