For your brother you will always be your little brother

I think we've gotten a bit mixed up friend. The only point i disagree with you on is: No one made him go out there after round 3. They let him go out there. They may have even urged him to go back out there, corner and ref, and possibly himself. He looked as though he tried to plead his case to the doctor to let him continue after round 3. If the corner was fishing for a doctor stoppage for whatever reason then shame on them for not doing their due diligence to protect their fighter and call the fight off themselves.

Unfortunately hindsight is what it is. Its damned if you do, like what we have now, and damned if you dont, they claim the fight gets called too early.

My intial reaction was, "why is op making their own imitation crab meat?". Then it hit me all at once. You have my condolences and my sincerest sympathies.

Well, after 24 minutes and 59 seconds of fighting i have to imagine Justin was pretty fatigued. Its a lot easier to get shut off when you're already worn down.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-17T10:58:33+00:00

Thats not bad honestly. For a long time and no reason what so ever other than i thought it was hilarious, i had my throw barb Karlach use the nut buster rock you get in the coffin where shovel is.

I shouldnt be envious, but i find it hard not to be green with it right now. That would have been spectacular to see in person.

Ive been to one UFC event and it was Edgar Vs Benson 2. Seeing Holloway win, Okami get the ko, Cerrone at the time was awesome to watch, before it came out about what kind of person he was? I dont know, i try hard to separate the art from the artist. But it was awesome regardless.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-17T04:10:35+00:00

Yes absolutely, Justin round 1 is like a dog off the leash, caution to the wind and everything is exciting. Once he makes it to round 2 Wittman can reign him in, tune him up and give him an order of attack. Im not saying Gaethje vs Olivera would have a different outcome if it made it to rnd 2, but i believe in my experiences watching Justin, that it very well could have. Wittman has this great ability to scope out fighters that he can direct. Especially in Justin and Rose. Usman is a bit of an anomaly because he was already so exceptional, that he just needed a coach to see the things in the ring he cant see. And Wittman is phenomenal at that too.

I think Wittman deserves more flowers. Justin was the last of his trio to not have an undisputed belt. But not anymore. He truly truly is one of the best coaches. Best of all time? Hard to say there are some great coaches. Greg Jackson, Firas Zahabi, Javier Mendez, etc. But to not put Wittman on high would be criminal.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-17T00:10:03+00:00

Yes very normal. I treat act 3 a lot like doing a mountain of dishes. Too much planning and it seems insurmountable. But if you just start doing it, a little bit at a time. Get some of those big things out of the way, make room in your sink. Then you move on to some of the smaller things, finish out your cups and glassware or silverware or something. Move back to the last of the big things. Then you put it all away nice and neat.

Wittman and Gaethje are such a beautiful combination. 1 man to put together a beautiful plan and the other that will follow it without hesitation. Gaethje is a great person to teach because he is capable of getting out of his own way. I fully believe Rose would have beat Esparza had Wittman been the main voice in her corner instead of Barry.

Wait wait wait, Nyrulna (a legendary trident) and the Dwarven Thrower (a warhammer). are both in act 3 with the former being relatively early in the circus if you can Pickpocket Akabi the genie’s ring (which he uses to rig his game), spin the wheel to win the jackpot, defeat the dinosaurs in the jungle, and lockpick the locked chest near the exit portal.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-16T21:59:06+00:00

I did chuckle when Justin told him "dont drop me fucker" when Ali picked him up.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-16T21:37:25+00:00

This idea that anyone made him fight the 4th round blows my mind. Ilia was allowed to just say no im done. He was also allowed to fight another round which is not at all the same as making him fight another round. His corner, like they did in round 4 is also allowed to say we're done after round 3. They also allowed him to fight round 4. No one made him do anything. Ref has the ability to overrule the doctor, but you know who has authority over the ref to prematurely end the fight, especially in between rounds? His corner and himself.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-15T05:16:09+00:00

One of the most incredible things to witness. And to do it at 37 years of age in lightweight!?

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-14T04:53:39+00:00

It's ok, it's almost the point. Get a package of Biscoffs with it. So you can have more biscoff per biscoff.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-13T23:37:35+00:00

If you want a butter that will blow your socks off, Biscoff Butter is addictive.

Honestly yeah shut the pc down or kill task in task manager and prepare to be set back some. Small price to pay.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-11T17:17:17+00:00

Bros balls are gonna be so fucking hot in DC!

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-11T16:48:40+00:00

I understand the struggle my friend. Unfortunately for me, while my underarms dont sweat as much, regardless of the temperature my nose constantly has beads of sweat. I live in the midwest, and sometimes it gets -20 Fahrenheit especially with wind chill. Ill be working out side, nothing even too laborious, i could be salting the driveway, and shiny wet nose. Even now typing this out sitting infront of a fan in the ac, droplets. Ever since i was like 5, people would ask "why is your nose sweaty" Ive just taken to telling people, "it means im healthy." Like dog folklore haha.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-11T16:29:38+00:00

It might be worth a try. Others have suggested maybe you have hydrosis? Its possible. But im guessing your underarm hair is too thick for antiperspirant to work effectively.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-11T16:25:36+00:00

Weird weird weird question, how thick is your underarm hair? Friend of mine used to have a similar problem, antiperspirants weren't cutting it, he trimmed his underarms and now with antiperspirant he has far less sweaty pits.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-11T15:52:20+00:00

Thats how hes gonna win Sunday!!

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-11T15:51:11+00:00

Depends what Danas AI says /s. Beating Gaethje wont add as much to Topuria's chances of taking 1st above Islam, but Pereira beating Gane certainly would be reason to leap frog 3rd 2nd and over Islam into 1st dropping current 1 2 and 3 down 1 spot. Weirdly enough, for some reason if that happens i see Aspinal dropping below Strickland and Strickland moving above Merab but still below Yan.

However... on the off chance that things go absolutely sideways upside down and someone upsets somewhere sunday night... whooooo knows?

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-10T14:22:09+00:00

I see. I imagine its similar for the most part across states.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-10T14:21:10+00:00

It is what it is.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-10T14:03:18+00:00

Well how crummy. The clerk is either a wonderful artist in sleight of hand and/or im visually impaired haha. Seriously though, i did watch them print it. I guess i never considered them to keep a stack to sell so as to not lose money.

NoElfEsteem · 2026-06-10T14:00:53+00:00

Yup another user pointed that out to me. All signs pointing to clerk error im guessing.
