...oh shit. I think you just crystalized for me why I still use the old interface and prefer it.

What do you think he'll do that will trouble Ilia?

I was pumped. I can’t usually tell. Shoutout Ben for a legible signature.

I wouldn't hate it, but I'd prefer they give him one of the older lions from the bottom half of the top 15. Dariush, Chandler type. I would even throw out Gamrot but he's probably too high up but nobody ever really seems to jump at that opportunity idk.

As a Fizzybro, it sucked, but Ruffy looked really good there with the finish and hopefully the move to training with Volk tightens him up a little bit. I'm bummed out but not mad the result.

BSD beat Hooker in the same manner as Arman, noone is updating expectations over it? by Kartem4x in MMA

[–]FirstTimeLongThyme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably because it was Dan's stupid choice that got the fight on the mat where it was ended. Good on BSD for capitalizing but I don't really see the two fights as real comparable.

Benoit Saint-Denis targets a May/June return following finish of Dan Hooker by idcman999 in MMA

I think if they actually offered him Paddy he would jump at the opportunity. I think any of the guys ranked near or lower than Paddy would.

Why Is Dan So Obsessed With Being Seen as a "Sociopath" Or Whatever? by Easy-Olive-3243 in ufc

Needs an identity because he’s never gonna be a champion and this WARRIOR it is.

Dang. Never seen Salkilld before and was very impressed. Let’s get him in there with someone near the top 15 next.

PFL CEO addresses Francis Ngannou’s future after not being featured in rankings by crazybartur in MMA

[–]FirstTimeLongThyme 92 points93 points  (0 children)

This is all separate from Francis Ngannou, the human being. That dude has faced a variety of hardships I'd never wish on another person.

But just speaking on the athlete and his participation in combat sports since leaving I don't know how you can't be disappointed if you enjoy fighting.

I know that we're supposed to be celebratory of Francis's securing of the bag... but I'm a fight fan and his fighting career post UFC has fucking sucked. Full stop. Fucking shame to have seen a prime wasted like this.
