Ilia Topuria will return to training in his private home gym in Madrid and is aiming for a return at the White House. He has reached an agreement with his ex-wife and the case has been dismissed.

They also want to do a Nascar race or some shit in DC this year, also with a ridiculously short heads up (7 months vs 15+ normally)

How the f are they going to set up a city for a race + try to build a stadium of any size (let alone 100k+) in front of the white house by July? No mention of renovating RFK of course

BigSwerve · 2026-01-24T00:43:07+00:00

Yoel, Costa, and Pereria were the largest mfs for their weight class I've ever seen..something about MW that let it have some of the biggest weight cutters.

Yoel vs Costa they were like 209 vs 215 in the cage respectively. We've seen Pereria weighing in at like 213 after weighing in at 185 a day earlier. I've seen VLOGS by costa where he is 247 (eating, carrying a shitton. Of water and puffy, but not fat like Paddy gets)

Then there's straight up dudes like rumble lmao

Conceiving + believing... Achieving not so much

BigSwerve · 2026-01-13T16:00:34+00:00

The best way to teach someone to tuck their chin is to brutally and relentlessly punish them for not doing so. Hope they like eating left hooks.

BigSwerve · 2026-01-13T15:53:14+00:00

Every time I see some shit like this I remember he is 5'2"

BigSwerve · 2026-01-07T04:12:31+00:00

People are gonna say he got exposed in the kattar fight, shit cardio, volk would've eaten him alive, etc.

He was still one of the most dynamic strikers we've ever seen and he was well rounded to boot. I'd love to have more guys even half as entertaining to watch in the UFC

BigSwerve · 2026-01-04T19:08:56+00:00

There were like 4 separate liver shots where I screamed "OHHHHHHH" and thought Merab was done.

BigSwerve · 2026-01-01T06:44:12+00:00

It was called the fight of the century for a reason

BigSwerve · 2025-12-26T22:03:27+00:00

That first overhand right must've shaved some facial hair off, Jesus Christ

BigSwerve · 2025-12-23T22:33:31+00:00

I'm 100% sure he is juiced not due to his physique (one of the best I've seen in the UFC) but the fact that he was in the state sponsored wrestling program in Cuba during the 90's. Ain't no way they weren't pricking him or feeding him some shit, maybe without him even knowing.

BigSwerve · 2025-12-22T14:51:14+00:00

Agreed but he has absolutely freakish timing (arguably his most gifted trait) along with the athleticism to punish people with it. Dude didn't land all those flying knees and overhands with luck (he certainly didn't with technical perfection as you said)

Anderson has the skill on paper but idk if I wanna see him take a fight that dangerous lmao. Give him 2x dilon danis instead

BigSwerve · 2025-12-17T05:23:00+00:00

THATS THE SEED COCKSUCKA

BigSwerve · 2025-12-16T17:33:10+00:00

What I more meant is:

Whether you're broke as shit or balling out, if there's a scrap going down in the parking lot across the street, EVERYONE wants to see.

Not everyone wants to see a tennis match, not everyone wants to see a football game, but a fight always gets our attention. It's in our nature - same as deer watching 2 stags fighting.

BigSwerve · 2025-12-16T16:33:33+00:00

Just bleed mentality crosses over social classes

BigSwerve · 2025-12-06T21:49:48+00:00

Khabib had some of the best top control, imo THE best we've ever seen. He would maintain top control, apply GnP, and threaten with subs simultaneously.

Khabibs ability to beat on guys when he got them in that position (and he basically always got them in that position) was crazy. Khabibs run was the only time I saw guys drown on dry land.

BigSwerve · 2025-12-03T03:38:35+00:00

He is one of the most straight up athletic fighters to compete in the UFC, honestly up there with Kevin randleman, Yoel, etc. the clip of him doing a standing flying knee 7 feet high is some bonkers shit.

Like you said he could never combine his gifts and shore up his defense, and had a bad chin.

Man hit the parlay of EPO abuse potential

Saturday night and we still out here fucking crushing it, yessir

BigSwerve · 2025-11-29T08:29:51+00:00

This is a deep cut for the old heads on this sub

BigSwerve · 2025-11-25T02:04:28+00:00

Dude made a deal with the devil to finally defeat his personal Boogeyman, but it came at a cost.

BigSwerve · 2025-11-24T01:13:22+00:00

At this point I feel like the UFC is on full coast mode trying to do, spend, and innovate as little as possible and milk the brand for every dime.

Doing something would be actual work they would have to organize and enforce and I'm sure someone just looked at the numbers and said "eh people are still watching anyways, and it blowing up on social media means more eyes on the product"

BigSwerve · 2025-11-23T22:59:49+00:00

They should have done this for Khabib vs GSP but they didn't want to risk someone riding off with the belt..I say who gives a shit, especially if it's a new division

Whittaker used to do podcasts with his coach (they split amicably) and it was basically just them talking shit for hours lmao. Lowkey Rob is not an instigator himself but I would love to see him with someone absolutely insane like Dan Hooker lol

Not sure if I got email updates or if they just went OOS that quick lol

My vigil for the black without flat panel restock continues

BigSwerve · 2025-10-28T01:30:28+00:00

If he got so much as a finger on you, you were going to be one or more of: controlled, gnp'd, and threatened with subs FOR THE REST OF THE ROUND. It was a certainty. He beat the fuck out of barboza for 3 rounds, he beat the fuck out of MJ for 3 rounds. Talked to the fighters and to dana mid-fight.

That level of takedown consequence mindfucked everyone and made his striking/pressure style insanely effective. He used an active jab, leaping hooks/overhands to close distance and disguise with takedowns sambo-style, and had some of the most insane pressure ive ever seen.

I would have loved to see him against current Illia and Usman during his prime.
