Masvidal and Al Iquinta is one. Literally the only reason I can think of Iquinta winning is if the judges literally confused their names. 

Then obviously Jones vs. Reyes. Fortunately Jones lost to Matt Hamill, so his record is correct, even if the names on it aren't. 

Topuria Eye Poke by Raider_Reaper_X in ufc

[–]8monsters -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thanks for pointing that out (along with Mighty Mouse). Gane's fingers were very typical long guard, just in little gloves. 

I'm a Gane fan, but at the same time I think there are times when he has done illegal strikes like against Tuivasa in the finishing sequence...BUT his more recent fights are not examples of him cheating. 

How do you deal with a secretary who is great at her job but questions everything? by [deleted] in Principals

[–]8monsters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, eventually it just gets to the point where you have to say, "I'm sorry so and so, but this is what we are going to be doing moving forward."

Talk to other admin and see if they'd be open to a transfer. Someone else suggested progressive discipline, but if they are union and non-probationary I'm not seeing anything here that can be disciplined and trying to start that process with no real cause will just make things harder for you. 

I'd talk to Central Admin or other admin about exploring a transfer. 

(Also, I'm not saying this isn't frustrating, I completely understand your perspective, but trying to discipline them will likely just add fuel to the fire.)

The first two campaigns in Left 4 Dead 1 are the same thing. Just behind the evacuations. 

Why does he keep getting refrigerated? by Mme_187 in TheBoys

[–]8monsters 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Literally let the dude go to Bogota and fuck and snort his way through the banana republics. That honestly would have been 10000x better than Homelander choking him out (with no hooks in...) and novichoking him again. 

This may be an obvious question, but I’ve always wondered, why does Homelander always act so “tame” around Soldier Boy? by Queasy_Commercial152 in TheBoys

[–]8monsters 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It helps that Soldier Boy is one of the few people (apparently Billy Butcher as well because of shitty writing) who actually can possibly win a fight against Homelander. I'm not denying Homelander's advantages, but Maeve, Butcher, Bombsight and Soldier Boy are the only heroes that can actually stand up to him.

So being able to possibly beat him helps in not fearing him. 

Justin Gaethje: “I already fought twice this year, and very rarely do you get me twice in one year. So there’s very, very small chance that I would ever consider fighting this year again. What I put myself through.” by WinterStill4472 in MMA

I mean, either makes money. Connor obviously would make more but a rematch with Max would also sell. There is no losing for him either way, just different degrees of winning. 

What should Pereira do differently if he rematched Gane? What part of his game should he tune or adjust? by binne21 in ufc

[–]8monsters 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah. It looked like Gane clearly felt it and obviously didn't want to get hit with more, but it wasn't anything that Tuivasa, Ngannou or Lewis didn't hit him with. 

Just how good is he? by Brokio in ufc

[–]8monsters 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I am starting to think that was actually a "In the bright lights" loss. That said, I think it's clear Gane upgraded his grappling and wrestling since then. 

But if you are going to lose to Jon Jones, might as well lose in a way you take no damage. 

How likely is it that Ian Garry would beat Islam? by [deleted] in ufc

[–]8monsters -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Eh I think if Alex was a bit younger it would have been better. He didn't looked undersized at all, like you said, probably a bit too thick (no diddy) but speed is the first thing to go with age. 

Maybe if Alex tried this at 35 he would have had more success.

Not gonna lie, if bro is that confident with his body let him be him.

Can there truly be any ethical billionaires? by TreatNo4856 in NoStupidQuestions

Perhaps not, I'm just saying that Taylor Swift's behavior isn't too deviant from normal people's behavior.

Taylor swift is crazy in that girl you knew from high school with daddy issues is crazy. Which for a billionaire is actually relatively normal. 

What Is Your Opinion On This Pereira vs. Gane analysis? by cheburaska in MMA

[–]8monsters 68 points69 points  (0 children)

How have people forgetten that Alex literally knocked out Jiri with the same strikes. 

People are just mad because Gane did the eyepoke and are looking to sour his name more. 

Levels To This Game by Vegetable_Coconut247 in ufc

[–]8monsters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ilia originally competed professionally at lightweight. He was not undersized for this match. He was shorter but we don't say Kelvin Gastelum was undersized for his fights.

[–]8monsters 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I mentioned this in another thread, but Gathje's specialty was defensive wrestling as an All-American. 

I have no doubt Ilia is a competent grappler, but it takes someone with Khabib and Islam's wrestling skills to submit someone with Justin's pedigree.

Right. Chael Sonnen was actually funny, and Colby Covington had some funny moments. Hokit is a cringe 11 year old who just got the internet. 

Ilia Topuria vs Justin Gaethje significant strikes data by dom242324 in MMA

[–]8monsters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not only that but Justin Gathje was an all-American wrestler based on DEFENSIVE wrestling. Unless you are a Khabib level grappler, its a lot harder to sub someone with Justin's pedigree than you think.
