    is omalley the unofficial champ?

    hahaha No. While the Yan fight was super close, I'm not mad about the decision really. Rounds 1/3 were close enough that I don't fault a judge for going either way. So, win for O'Malley, congrats. That being said, I think Aljo is a terrible matchup for O'Malley.

    Did you gain any respect for Sean O'Malley?

    I gained some, yes. I knew he had good striking. But I was impressed with his TDD and ability to get back up when the TDD failed. I was also impressed by his ability to take big shots and keep going. He did not wilt under the pressure. Lastly, I was impressed with his interview after the...

    name successful wrestlers who don't use massive weight loss to their advantage

    Having a string of losses at the end of your career does not mean you were never successful. Ellenberger was legit for a while... wins over Jake Shields, Diego Sanchez (before he dropped off so badly), Nate Marquardt, and more. The dude had a respectful and successful mma career.

    Is McGregor retired and if not, does he beat any ranked fighter right now?

    I give him a shot against the bottom half of the LW rankings. I don't think he stands much chance in the WW division.

    Why do a lot of people think that the knee stomp/oblique kick needs to be banned?

    You can take an argument to the point of being ridiculous and pretend victory, doesn't make you right.

    Why do a lot of people think that the knee stomp/oblique kick needs to be banned?

    You don't see a difference between a lock, which generally gives time to tap out before damage is completely done, and a strike that causes instant damage? I don't think we can help you.

    Most money with the least amount of talent?

    Lesnar... not that he was terrible. It's just the discrepancy in how much he got paid.

    So do we know who Masvidal actually wants to fight?

    he wants a winnable money fight against stand up fighters.. unfortunately, that is a rare commodity.

    Conor will be 32 shortly. With his style, the prime years go early.

    I somewhat agree with you, in that his prime will be short/might be over already. It would have been great to see him get more fights in. I'd say he wasted it, but he also made a ton of cash. If he does walk away, at least he won't have taken too much damage.

    Team Alpha Male CONFIRMED in being a bad camp that doesn't know how to develop fighters

    I think we need to see how he reacts to getting hurt before we can really comment on his improvement. He looked amazing against Cruz and early vs TJ in the first fight. It's when he gets cracked and tries to get one back that things go wrong for him. Last night really didn't tell us anything...

    Lyoto Machida has been so important for this sport

    Machida will always be one of my favorites. WAR DRAGON. I always hoped he would complete a comeback and get a title again... even bellator. I'm sad.

    Is Joe Rogan the baddest 50 year old man alive?

    Mike Tyson is looking good lately

    Arlovski deserves credit for his mental toughness

    You make a good point. To go on such epic losing streaks and come back strong multiple times is pretty amazing. To keep that confidence and hunger to compete.

    I don't understand people who rank Nogueira above Stipe

    I think losses at the end of the career don't carry as much weight. These guys are WAY passed their prime and unwilling to hang them up sometimes. This shouldn't subtract from how amazing they were. But really... Nog and Stipe are really even in my mind.. imaging a match between the two of them...

    Quinton "Titties" Jackson

    Rampage looked terrible. I didn’t expect much really, but I did hope for more than that. I knew as soon as I saw him that this fight wouldn’t last long, but I hoped for a more potent offense from him. At least I did predict a Fedor victory. I’m glad to see him go out on a high note.

    If Cerrone finishes Connor MacGregor

    Wow, somehow I missed that fact. Interesting bit of info... Guy must really love fighting.

    If Cerrone finishes Connor MacGregor

    Maybe... or at least until the money runs out.

    Fedor vs Rampage Bellator 237 weigh ins

    I can't believe so many people are counting Fedor out. Both of these guys are past their fighting prime, neither has looked especially good lately, prime fedor > prime rampage by a wide margin. I have no idea what will happen in this fight, but I'll take Fedor by dec or late TKO
