    Justin Gaethje Low Fight IQ

    It's was all adrenaline, it wasn't a conscious decision to trade at the end. He took pretty bad damage in the last round, barely survived, had an awfully broken nose, after having fought with it for 20 minutes. He was probably cognitively half-conscious at that point. Look at the speed of his...

    Media Alex Volkanovski Says Felt "Devastated" After Loss - Wants "Extended Break Eying ONLY Title Fight At End of Year"

    His age doesn't have much to do with it. He looked great against Yair, fast and crisp half a year ago. He made a career altering decision, one of the worst decisions any great fighter has ever made, and he has paid with his health, legacy and future with it. He fought one of the best fighters...

    Mirko Cro Cop Was 2-6 In the USA and UK

    Correlation is not causation. It had nothing to do with the place. He simply couldn't adapt to the octagon, he fought in K-1 in 1996, then he was an amateur boxer from 1996-1999, K-1 from 1999-2003 and Pride until 2007. His entire arsenal was adapted to the ring. His footwork didn't work in the...

    Media Max live reaction to Islam KOing Volk

    Imagine someone beats your friend three times, takes his title, diminishes his legacy... of course you're going to root for him to get knocked out. Understandable reaction.

    Howcome Islam was able to headshot KO Volk but Yair wasn't able to?

    A couple of things: MMA fighters are bad at defending kicks. A good defense against kicks would simultaneously block middle/high kicks without guessing where it's aimed. This is still a sport where calf kicks made half the roster limping and dumbfounded. Yair has no boxing or wrestling so Volk...

    How is Volkanovski too fast for featherweights but too slow against a lightweight?

    Max can't kick and doesn't wrestle offensively so all Volk has to focus on are his hands. He was basically fighting a boxer. Korean Zombie was so past his prime, he might as well be a completely different fighter. Ortega dropped and almost finished him. Yair has no wrestling and no boxing. In...

    My hespect for Volk went down a bit for one reason

    Who are ''we''? I'm a big fan of Volk, and the last thing i wanted for him was to take a fight against the best LW on the planet out of shape. He's a fighter, he's not saving the world, he's not on the verge of curing cancer. He carefully and smartly built his legacy and now he will forever...

    My hespect for Volk went down a bit for one reason

    He sold his legacy for money. I'm a big fan but i will never understand a 35-year old who had build a great legacy, only one close loss a category above, being so delusional that he thinks he can beat a world class fighter like Islam basically straight from the couch. He lost the previous...

    F*k the UFC

    Volk made his own bed, but what upsets me is that Islam missed that same high kick a minute before, it grazed the glove otherwise it would have been the same outcome and Volk still didn't defend the next one, leaving half his head open for hitting. If this was like Gonzaga's head kick, out of...

    Media Mohammed Usman is the latest UFC fighter to recieve a hair transplant

    You're wrong. I was bald as a cue ball, did a transplant at age 34 in Turkey, and the first impression changed immediately which got my confidence back and i was angry at myself for not doing it earlier. It's been 3 years since, and all the transplanted hair is there, there are no scars, and...

    Who's the most intimidating fighter in MMA history?

    Go and re-watch Mirko vs Eddie Sanchez. Sanchez was so intimidated, he was throwing shots like people do in nightmares, just swinging, backing away, slipping...it looked like he was fighting for his life against a wild animal. Crocop lost that aura after getting ko'ed by Gonzaga, but late...

    Media Jonathan Martinez' leg kicks.....

    I think the leg breaks like Anderson Silva's, have made a lot of people tentative and scared to throw leg kicks with full power. They use it mostly as a jab instead of a finishing move.

    Does 10lb weight advantage make a significant difference in a fight ?

    It depends on the category. The lower the category, the bigger the percentage of weight difference. A difference between a 240 and 250 HW is next to nothing. A difference between a 145 and 155 is pretty big. It also depends on the the type of fighters having the weight advantage. Khabib having...

    Movies Out of these fight scenes - Which are the 5 best? (Third Elimination Bracket)

    That's a poor choice for The Matrix Reloaded in my opinion. The Neo vs multiple Smiths has aged badly. This scene is absolutely incredible, regardless of what one thinks of the movie in general. The choreography, the smooth editing, the sync between the action and the score...perfection.

    Media Glover “Poatan” Teixeira

    Why is Poatan's face photoshopped into a smile?

    Out of these albums - Which are the 2 best? (The Finals O/T)

    Replace The Wall with LZ4 and that would have been a fantastic line-up.

    Media If anybody thought Sean was pretending to be crazy...

    Crocop was participating a show where he switched professions for a day, he worked as a postman and the postman was going to the gym. The postman pranked him by having a girl in a bikini open the door while Mirko was delivering mail and she started to berate him for staring at her. Mirko paid...

    Media Dana "almost had no feelings" about both his parents dying recently

    A ruthless sociopath doesn't care about his parents? What's next, you're going to tell me he beats his wife in public?

    Vince McMahon has veto power over UFC decisions.

    The UFC brought Sean ''The Cannon'' Gannon because he beat Kimbo in a street fight. They gave the aforementioned Kimbo a contract even though he was embarrassed on TUF. They brought James Toney whose idea of a takedown was a buffet. They gave Brock a title shot after being 1-1 with one...

    Media Alexander Volkanovski and Islam Makhachev Pay Each Other Respect Post Fight.

    Of all the dumb rematches the UFC forces, the #1 and #2 P4P fighters have an intense, incredibly close and rarely technical fight, and we don't get a rematch. Hopefully they win their next fights and they get to do it again.
