    How come Max is still in his prime but people say that Aldo was past prime when he fought Volk?

    Because length of careers, training methods, genetics, how many "miles" and how hard those miles were, non-sports experiences and just about everything else varies from person to person. No one hits their physical peak at the same time, no one sees the same rate of decline, some offset or...

    Has a male fighter ever been dropped and stopped by a weaker punch than Malkouns jab against Petroski?

    What jab? He went in full speed for a takedown and his jaw was lined up perfectly with the hip bone. Freak/fluke impact, but it wasn't a weak punch. There was no punch.

    Alex Periera did what Khamzat Chimaev was supposed to do

    Then why did you claim he "keeps missing weight" when he doesn't?

    Mighty mouse thinks Anthony Joshua beats Francis ngannou in mma

    Seeing as how English is not his first language, he doesn't seem all that dim to me.

    Mighty mouse thinks Anthony Joshua beats Francis ngannou in mma

    Up until Gane, Francis built a HW championship career on being a technically poor power puncher who would overwhelm opponents with his physicality. He surprised everyone and wrestle-fucked Gane. Why would it be such a stretch to think a technically elite power puncher who showed he can...

    Alex Periera did what Khamzat Chimaev was supposed to do

    Once. Fighters often fight when they miss weight. What was unusual was the shuffling of the card.

    Alex Periera did what Khamzat Chimaev was supposed to do

    "Keeps missing 170." He missed it once, against Diaz, right?

    The greatest UFC fighters not to win an undisputed title

    The top four all won undisputed MMA titles, just not UFC titles. Seeing as how there was no UFC weight class when Faber had his belt, his name on the list is particularly egregious.

    Did Francis embarrass the sport of MMA

    Timing and accuracy aren't measures of power, though. They're measures of timing and accuracy. If you're talking about having more power, that IS something that is measured by those punch machines.

    Did Francis embarrass the sport of MMA

    Do they, though? It's more complicated than that, I think. Timing, and accuracy and disguise. It's the punch that hits the right sport that you aren't moving with that puts you out more than raw power. Anderson Silva and Lyoto Machida didn't wrack up all their highlight KOs because they have...

    Prime Fedor simply had a level of athleticism that is still unmatched in HW MMA

    Biggest thing that stands out, and a lot of things stand out, was his MW hand speed with HW power behind it.

    Did Francis embarrass the sport of MMA

    Tim Sylvia disagrees.

    Did Francis embarrass the sport of MMA

    That's nuts. He got paid well against Fury, who clearly took the fight too lightly, but not at rock-star rates. He put himself into that elite echelon of boxing PPV earners, and, what, he's going to stop once he gets there? He's not there to make MMA fighters look less inferior, he's there to...

    Boxing Gloves vs MMA Gloves

    They are compared to MMA gloves, which was the point, I believe.

    Ngannou leaving the UFC for boxing

    Don't think he coasted, but I do think he didn't train seriously for it.

    Media Ortega Says He Couldn’t Hear the Ref and Tap was Soft

    I guess dehydration makes your mucus thicker and makes it harder to expel, so maybe he had some buildup in his ears.

    Media Dana White on why Henry Cejudo wasn’t given the chance to retire in the octagon “Tonight was Merab’s night”

    Not true. Henry was allowed to retire in the ring on May 9, 2020.

    Media Conor McGregor posting highlight reels of him beating up (questionable) sparring partners

    "beating up" - it's completely light, gentle touch-sparring. Not a big deal. You know, almost like the punches he threw at Mayweather.

    Media Dana White walks off Howie Mandels Podcast

    Why would you agree to do Howie Mandel's podcast in the first place?

    Fedor Emelianenko or Jon Jones - Who has the most impressive win streak?

    Jon Jones is 27-1 (1 NC). He is currently on a five fight win streak, because his fight against then-19-1 Corimer was not a win, but a NC due to PED use by Jones.
