    Shoop that Incredulous Cormier / Drug Wars

    Unfortunately, I think you are greatly underestimating both the number of dense morons and the depth of their stupidity.

    Did Poirer just get caught by Conor early?

    I would LOVE to see them fight again. Especially because of Dustin's growth as a fighter. He used to be a brawler who completely priorities offense over defense and what little standup defense he had was incredibly one note. He used a high guard with his right hand and tried to parry with...

    Do you think Conor’s fighting style is more exciting than Khabib’s?

    No question that conor style is more exciting. I massively prefer MMA over boxing and kickboxing because I want to see the best fighter on the planet and those systems disallow so many things that would happen in a real fight that they both feel fake. I will say that Khabib is one of the most...

    What is the most likely reason Conor was so humle to Cowboy?

    I think there are many factors in why Conor didn't aggressively trash talk against Cowboy. 1. The first and I think most important is that Cowboy is highly respected in the MMA community. His mantra of fighting anyone, anytime, anywhere as well as how often he fights has won him a ton of credit...

    Conor Khabib 1

    So in other words Conor was too lazy and wasn't capable of dealing with success. As soon as Conor got a too much money he couldn't handle it and got coked out, drunk, and stopped training hard. Guess what??? Dealing with success is absolutely one of the requirements for GOAT status. All of...

    are pressure fighters, Israel adesanya kryptonite?

    I think this is more a factor of Adesanya's reach and how good he is at fighting at range. If you stay at range you are going to get eaten alive so you have to pressure him and get close if you want to win.

    Should KO of the year be

    personally for me, the primary criteria for KO of the year is the uniqueness, power, explosiveness, difficulty, accuracy and technique of the KO. The circumstances and who it is against is secondary but also play a part. The fact that Yair was going to lose the fight and won by KO against the...

    Fake contracts to Cerrone? UFC's negotiation tactic to get Conor vs. Aldo 2 (Nate 3) for cheap?

    I agree with you that a motivated Aldo has a much better chance than Cowboy. (If he hasn't lost too much of a step which is a real possibility at his "fight age".) But if you couldn't tell Conor had gotten into his head before the fight than I can't help you as just about everyone else could...

    NFL star threatens to pull a Conor, only difference is fans/players support him

    The more I look into this the more I can see Bell's point and understand what he is doing. So I guess I will be the lone voice of support for him and I am not even a Steelers fan. Outside of Kickers\Punters running back make by far the least amount of money out of any position group in the...

    Fake contracts to Cerrone? UFC's negotiation tactic to get Conor vs. Aldo 2 (Nate 3) for cheap?

    This is the other problem which I didn't mention in my post. Aldo looked flat out broken and scared in his fight with Conor which amazed me even more than his quick loss. I mean Aldo wouldn't even look at Conor when they faced off right before the fight. Aldo had absolutely brutalized...

    Fake contracts to Cerrone? UFC's negotiation tactic to get Conor vs. Aldo 2 (Nate 3) for cheap?

    [shrug], I have a much simpler explanation. Aldo has never been a draw on his own and to a lesser extent this has also been true of Alvarez. The UFC knew it could almost get as many pay per view buys and almost make as much money with Conor fighting someone who wasn't as challenging as they...

    Who do you think won these close fights

    Great Question. I so much prefer this over another GOAT argument or a Conor thread. All of my replies are for who I thought won under the rules as they existed at the time of the fight. After all the fighters are told the rules as well and would alter how they fought if under different rules...

    Why are winning fighters criticized for not Dominating every second of a fight ?

    You clearly have not been a MMA fan for very long. This board went ape shit for Edgar vs Maynard II and III where Edger got absolutely destroyed in the first round of both fights and then came back to draw the 2nd one and get the TKO in the 3rd fight. Some people have them in their favorite...

    Aldo vs Mcgregor trash talk I don't get it

    [shrug] I don’t think so. At least not at first. I think his approach in the beginning was the right one. (Ie the I am the king and Conor is the jester bit). When Conor ran up to him after the Mendez fight he laughed at him after all. I THINK where it really seemed to change was when Conor...

    Killing the King Cormier vs Stipe

    I don’t understand why Sherdoggers feel the need to shit on our own. It is not like we have a massive surplus of good writers in MMA who give technical analysis of what happened in a fight. Personally I want more writers to do this not less. I will admit I don’t always agree with his analysis...

    Killing the King Cormier vs Stipe

    That is because it was his plan B. Ali himself has said so. In fact I doubt it was even his plan B but more like a C or D. Ali came up with that plan on the fly in the ring. You can learn all about it in the documentary “When we were kings”. It is fantastic. It gives the fight...

    Aldo vs Mcgregor trash talk I don't get it

    This is a question I have asked myself numerous times as it is equally baffling to me. Aldo was a dominate champ who really didn’t even have many close fights in the UFC let alone losses before he met Conor. On the one hand we have a dominate champ who has been plastering almost everyone he...

    Dana White blocked Aldo from become two-division champ

    If WEC Aldo had continued fighting that way in the UFC, I think he would have had a good shot at getting the opportunity. Unfortunately he became supper conservative and began playing not too lose more than trying to get the finish in the UFC. Pulling out of so many fights is one of the...

    Are we going to be consistent now? Is Georges St. Pierre a ducker at this stage?

    I don't think there is any question at all that George is currently picking and choosing his fights very carefully and balancing the reward of winning a fight vs the cons of losing a fight. (ie ducking). [Shrug] personally however I prefer to look at the all of the circumstances and not just...

    *Video* TJ claims both him and UFC wanted the DJ fight

    [shrug] This isn't exactly a controversial statement. The actions of the two fighters over the last year have been in line with this. Besides just taking a quick look at the pros and cons for each fighter shows why this would be. TJ Pros A win against DJ would serious increase TJ career...
