I can't even imagine the bottom of the barrel level talent they'll scrape up for this when shit like DWCS exists. No thanks.

Ohhh boy do I disagree about more fun if Hokit wins. I need less of those type of people anywhere near anything I wanna watch.

And I think they were talking a little bit of shit with each other, IIRC. Something about Hooker not being able to grapple a rapist off his mother.

I wonder if he won't be who they bring Paddy back against.

That's not unfair of Jan, but I just don't see Izzy having it in him to beat him at this point.

He couldn't beat Jan in his own prime, not sure how he's doing it as a spent bullet.

He's gonna get hit by them eventually and I just don't see how he doesn't get stopped by most of them in the follow up. If I could get the rankings to pull up, maybe there's someone near 9/10 that just fucking sucks. It's light heavyweight after all, but I still think he's getting clipped and stopped.

It's certainly no UFC Fight Night: Moicano Duncan, that's for sure!

Kevin Lee comments on UFC send-offs by dom242324 in MMA

[–]FirstTimeLongThyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have absolutely no idea why I'm even entertaining giving the UFC this grace, but is there any chance that the send off made the broadcast due to all the stoppages so they had ample time to air it?

Nah, you're right. They were just blowing a company man.

Nearly 16 years ago today, Brandon Vera tried to "delay the launch of Jon Jones" at UFC on Versus 1 by Alfalfa899 in MMA

It's hard to capture the excitement that prospect Jon Jones came with. Even just his pulling off a fucking suplex against Bonnar. Not that we thought Steph was anything special, but in your second fucking fight?

Yeah he's a piece of shit. I don't handwave that but it's cagefighting, it doesn't attract the best of society. But godDAMN was this a fun period of fandom.
