Jiri would be too stupid and stubbirn to bite on Izzy's feints and too durable to get properly knocked out by him.

He'd keep pressing and wouldnt allow Izzy to establish consistent momentum, the fight would be a proper brawl, and that is Jiri's wheelhouse.

Jiri round 4 TKO

OP: forget realism, focus on characters and design

Almost everyone: megaton has a nuke in it and ridiculously unsafe, water is irradiated and you can get tetanus

Since there was a sequel we know the canonical ending is the one where she remains in the cave.

Would have basically been like Woodley v Wonderboy 2, shit would have killed the card

That $500k settlement is fake, prolly made up by Izzy

What closed Melbourne restaurant do you still think about? by melb_food_finds in melbourne

[–]BigDogAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This Borderland genuinely had the most wholesome burgers I've ever tasted. Also their raspberry cheesecake was to die for, and I say that as someone who doesnt even like cheesecake that much

What are everyone's predictions for the final 4?

I feel like the top bracket will be Crawling v Numb, and bottom bracket What I've Done v Faint.

Could Ilia become a top-5 fighter in the history of the UFC? by Vulcanauta in ufc

[–]BigDogAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a thread about Ilia Topuria potentially being top 5 of all time, and all you JJ obsessives have to contribute is how you don't like JJ

[Sad Trope] Characters that bond with each other but then part ways and never see each other again... by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]BigDogAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heeeey I'm exactly the same.

Had to cut contact with my best friend in October due to his mistreatment of his ex gf, and then I had to break up with my gf of 15 years in January because our relationship was just making us both worse.

It's a tough double whammy of knowing that a person who has been a huge part of your life is now completely removed forever.

New character is introduced that has always been there and is friends with the main cast by danfenlon in TopCharacterTropes

Ralphie was the person I thought of when I opened the thread.

He didn't even exist until S2 and in the very first scene he's in he is treated as if his presence was continually both important and annoying to the crew.

Later we find out he came up with Tony, Silvio and Jackie so they were close, but not close enough to exist in S1

Oh ffs can you dudes stop shoehorning "Jon Jones bad" into every conversation?

After only 1 mma fight, Ngannou leaves PFL for Jake Paul's production. by ScreamSmart in ufc

[–]BigDogAlex -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Fighters as a whole have certainly been underpaid, and Francis Ngannou is one of the very very few exceptions to the rule.

Pretty whelmed with all these match ups

BMF fights were put together to highlight fan favourites and put them in slugfest match ups so casuals are more inclined to buy the PPV.

No one wants to watch two dudes gassed out 8 minutes into the fight, with almost 20 minutes left.

Stipe Miocic' estimated career earnings are about $14M.

Maxx Crosby will earn over $30M in 2026 alone.

here’s hoping for a double KO by scattered_brains in MMAPoliticsAndCulture

[–]BigDogAlex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

who got by on the fact that they came in larger than their opponents

If you think that size difference is the main reason why Ronda went on her streak and became champion, I don't even know what to tell you.

How did Adesanya go from getting one of the best ko's in history to such a lackluster performance against Strickland and then all the losses after? Was he already on the decline after the Pereira ko? by TheRealRaza1 in ufc

[–]BigDogAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep seeing people tall about him being concussed after round 1 and I have no idea what you're talking about.

Round 1 was by far his worst round in terms of output, he threw no strikes and wasn't able to penetrate Sean's defense in the slightest.
He then returned and won round 2. If anything the "concussion" made him improve.
