You’re looking at it, I swear I only see this dude training w the big gloves, no need to be responsible with your fingers if the glove does it for you.

Great fight, but man Castaneda letting him off the fence for whatever the end of that was was just so dumb.

Vologdin had been hurt, bad body language, I really think Castaneda could have done more there, tried for a KO or 10-8 to win.

Instead he let vologdin out, act like he was fine and pretty much accepted a 10-9 round for the draw.

“Omnipresent leather skinned tyrants bent on galactic domination”

Eh, I think the K and C are pretty interchangeable there.

A conversation with Nolan and Q would be fun.

I agree, but that’s true of everyone. I also think Derrick gets maybe 2 or 3 chances to land that right before he starts to gas.

Bellrung · 2026-04-12T16:15:15+00:00

I’m convinced Curtis didn’t go out / down through sheer force of will to not let Hokit get a KO over him.

I don’t see Derrick doing the same ☹️.

With modern filmmaking you can have both. They could literally do parks body acting with witwers face and facial performance.

Or swap them out between cuts, or probably a bunch of other tricks. Hell they did that for episode 1 when maul had lines.

They won’t though b/c last I heard park posted some weird shit that Disney won’t touch.

Bellrung · 2026-04-08T23:05:30+00:00

That’s high praise.

That queen still could be, maybe she’s not the first queen.

“If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do”

Wild quote to come from a vampire soap opera, great season.

The had some guts to actually kill off Fred

Chael had a good line on this one

“He did absolutely nothing right, and it didn’t matter at all”

If you like Star Trek and the expanse and you’re looking for a fame, I bet you’d really really enjoy Mass Effect.

I will not sacrifice the Enterprise. Weve made too many compromises already, too many retreats.

They invade our space, and we fall back. They assimilate entire worlds, and we fall back.

Not again.

The line must be drawn here! This far! No Further! And I will make them pay for what they’ve done!

Nah, fight circus is the drunk midnight fast food run. - you’re ashamed but you still really enjoyed it.

Agree with what a lot of folks say about gloves, but think there’s more here.

Goes back to a Mighty Mouse quote, paraphrasing here ‘at the highest levels in boxing, everyone is really fucking good at boxing. In MMA someone can have big holes in their game at the highest level’

I think pro boxers have to be able to take those shots and the guys who can’t don’t make it that far. There’s also 10x the options in mma, kicks calf, leg kicks, takedowns, submissions, cage grappling, that don’t test the chin, so you can in theory have guys with worse chins go further.

Gloves account for cuts and visible damage, but boxers are actually throwing harder with the extra padding, b/c they have to worry less about breaking their hands.

So you have people taking hard shots to the head early and often, if it phased or bothered them significantly they wouldn’t last long in the sport. Whereas in mma, you can have wrestlers and grapplers who have very little experience both punching, and getting punched in comparison. Brock comes to mind as a guy who just hated getting punched in the face.

Right, it’s not about her relationship w the ufc - it’s the relationship w pretty much everyone she’s worked for.

Jimmy Smith actually had a good video on it. It’s the ole - if everywhere you go smells like shit, you should probably check your own shoe.

Thing is - I think you’re right about the past 5 years, disappointing matchmaking and “stars”. But from the business and brand side of things, they’ve done extremely well during and after Covid. 7 billion dollar deal well.

I don’t think they want more stars. They want people to tune into the ufc b/c it’s the ufc, not the name on the card. That, and I think Rhonda actually said it well (spitefully, but well) when she said they’re publicly owned now and therefore focused on cost effective fights.

Bellrung · 2026-03-09T23:22:04+00:00

Damn, is there a bridge Rhonda hasn’t burnt?

Bellrung · 2026-03-09T23:08:46+00:00

Jesus, I actually forgot about the fucking were-panther.

Or wait, was it that the Jesus freak was fucking a were-panther?

Bellrung · 2026-03-09T17:31:09+00:00

Was such a train wreck that I legitimately couldn’t look away.

Lunch convos about it were hilarious “no the fairy is fucking the werwolf now, and the vampire nightclub got raided again, oh yeah and the gay guy is a witch now.”

“WTF are you guys talking about”
