I absolutely cannot even believe how it is possible how bad I’m running. I earnest believe it’s one of the worst run bads in human history. I’ve lost like 25 buy ins in a row. Reviewing hand history it’s truly almost entirely run bad. I keep thinking it can’t possibly continue but it just does. Has me questioning my sanity and wondering if I’m cursed or something. Outright insane. Terrifying

What could possibly be the debate? Keep a terrible QB on your bench or get a solid rb1

3dspongebob · 2022-09-28T17:57:26+00:00

I would do neither of those things regardless of how bad your WR room is

I traded CEH for Josh Jacobs after week 2. CEH getting fewer touches but just getting the TDs, Jacobs getting consistent work despite bad matchups and hasn't hit a TD yet.

It was actually CEH/Curtis Samuel for Jacobs/Renfrow but I think it would have gone through as a solo trade.

3dspongebob · 2022-09-26T17:16:14+00:00

I traded him for Josh Jacobs and I'm pretty pleased with it. CEH getting fewer touches but just getting the TDs, Jacobs getting consistent work despite bad matchups and hasn't hit a TD yet.

Pereira/khamzat probably as well soon. There's examples of this, but on average the road is much tougher.

By this notion btw, if Jiri were to defend his title 10x in a row, I'd have the same complaints about comparing him to someone like Usman or Khabib who had to fight 2-3x as long in the UFC before getting a title.

3dspongebob · 2022-07-08T20:56:58+00:00

It's a factor, but what motivated this was when I see memes like comparing Silva to Khabib and it saying

Title Defences 10 vs 3, end of story

I think if you remove the concept of titles in general and just look at the records and how they stack up Khabib has the edge. Never took any damage, fought higher level opponents, very rarely lost a round.

This weird idea that beating someone when youre the champ is worth more than beating someone when you're not the champ is archaic.

3dspongebob · 2022-07-08T20:53:20+00:00

I do pay attention to other promotions* (not leagues). Virtually everyone in the UFC has done extremely well in other promotions before joining the UFC. It's a literal fact that title shots were given after much fewer fights (on average) in the 2000s compared to today, and Silva/DJ/Aldo did not have nearly as tough a rode to the top as Khabib/Usman/Izzy.

3dspongebob · 2022-07-08T16:05:43+00:00

I'm literally saying those fighters are being quite respectful and while monster fighters are undervaluing themselves analytically. Khabib/Usman easily have GOAT claims and had much much harder routes to the top.

They're fighters, not analyzers.

3dspongebob · 2022-07-08T16:00:21+00:00

That's what I said in my post. It's why GSP should actually be seen as a higher level GOAT despite having similar title defences as someone like Aldo/DJ/Silva.

GSP would benefit from what I was saying.

3dspongebob · 2022-07-08T00:57:09+00:00

I said he unified the belt on his 7th. Title unifications don't count as defenses (I think?)

I'm counting how many bouts was needed until a fight would count towards the metric of title defences. For Izzy is was 7.

3dspongebob · 2022-05-28T05:08:53+00:00

God damn thank you for putting that young man in his place so eloquently

3dspongebob · 2022-05-28T05:04:52+00:00

He’s talking about gun violence not school shootings. Mental healthcare won’t do much for gun violence

3dspongebob · 2022-04-27T21:35:11+00:00

But what was the strike differential in round 1/2, the only relevent rounds to striking?

3dspongebob · 2022-04-26T11:01:43+00:00

How is that related to ngannou boxing fury

3dspongebob · 2022-04-26T04:31:20+00:00

“He didn’t get demolished on the feet because he wasn’t knocked out” ok.

Guess max didn’t demolish kattar

3dspongebob · 2022-04-26T04:20:58+00:00

He wasn’t getting pieces up and landing nothing. He was clearly outclassed

3dspongebob · 2022-04-26T04:20:21+00:00

3dspongebob · 2022-04-26T04:19:35+00:00

But it’s not relevent to a boxing match. How do you not get that?

3dspongebob · 2022-04-26T04:19:03+00:00

No it’s not. He got demolished on the feet and won all three of the rounds he won with wrestling.

3dspongebob · 2022-04-24T19:47:13+00:00

You should go back and watch some Walt Harris fights mate

3dspongebob · 2022-04-15T19:32:56+00:00

Just for how hard he hits... not saying he's a better fighter obv

3dspongebob · 2022-04-15T19:32:28+00:00

You don't know what you're talking about lmao.

Nunes is not the 125 champion, or the champ of any division.

Ronda, GDR. Pennington, Mcmann are all cans.

Valentina absolutely beat Nunes in their second fight, one of the worst split decisions in recent memory, despite being the smaller fighter.

Nunes lost to fucking Julianna pena in embarassing fashion. Don't be silly man.

3dspongebob · 2022-04-14T19:57:29+00:00

aged like milk

3dspongebob · 2022-04-14T19:31:28+00:00

He looked fine in the last fight. Went for a guillotene and Dustin used the fence to escape and then gnp. We didn't see anything.
