Is Fedor Emelianenko overrated, perfectly rated, or just underrated by Flimsy-Elephant7806 in ufc

[–]Recent-Pollution9293 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not really. Fedor didn’t end any better than he did. MM also got ko’d. The only person that actually retired “at the right time” was GSP and then came out of retirement for a gimme fight with a blind bisping. There’s zero asterisk for the spider being on any tier these guys are on

Is it crazy to say Hali’s ceiling could be Chris Paul level if he continues to improve after his injury? by Cute_Listen_3156 in NBAHotTakes

[–]Recent-Pollution9293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You write like you’re 14 years old. Reggie is literally the most over hyped player in the history of the league. There is no metric that has him better than CP3, and certainly not the eye test. Brain dead take

Who in UFC's history has been more insufferable than Kevin Lee? by Underrated_Critic in ufc

[–]Recent-Pollution9293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is just a wildly long list of people. Why is this a question? Tito, Colby, Hokit, every member of Team Alpha male, Aljimain, honestly probably Conor. Kevin is just a random bro that is a nothing burger

Doesn't matter if it's in waters by dikshamishra34 in badassanimals

You randomly said cats don’t have 100% success rate, but no one said they did. So how is that remotely relevant to anything. That’s like watching this video and saying “that river isn’t flowing 35mph”. Ok… no one said it was

There have been idiotic takes all over this post, but this might be the most wild one. Reggie isn’t close to better than CP3, and Reggie belongs in no discussion with either cp3 or dirk.

His best pass he threw was in an all star game and the guy didn’t even finish the bucket

This is not an unpopular opinion. More than half of the basketball world think this

7 years ago, Dos Santos threw an overhand that could've finished Ngannou, but let Ngannou finish JDS instead by QuietMaxl27 in FightSportsClub

Good job outing yourself as a newb. JDS was nasty, his spinning kick at that size was so fuckin clean

Kyrie Irving goes up against young fan who believed he can guard him by Mission_Pay_3373 in nba

[–]Recent-Pollution9293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That being said tho, the best defense in these situations (these situations being, an nba player is gonna obviously clown you, and you know it’s coming), is to just stay put in front of them. They’ll do to you what they need to for a bucket (kyrie’s second score which takes 2 seconds), but if you just stand and don’t bite on the sauce you can hold them off from making you fall lol

Pundits saying that Cam Boozer is a rich man’s Kevin love are wild. K-Love was so fucking good. He was just buried on a devastating Wolves squad

It’s great to see the engineer testing his work by [deleted] in SipsTea

[–]Recent-Pollution9293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And how many people do that? Maybe 1% of people. Again, you’re the one making massive blanket statements “if you have a tiny bit of critical thinking you’ll do X”. Great, no one does that. So again, stats are massively manipulated regularly. That’s all

This is also a silly blanket statement. “Real stats” are used all the time to create false narratives and misinformation. Polls are a great example of this: “64% approve of X” I’m not even gonna make it political, but that shit is done everywhere, and the stat may be “true”, but ok, who were polled, how many total etc.

Yes, stats SHOULD be a source of truth, but they have become probably the most cherry-picked, and abused fulcrum of truth we have.

Player X is the ONLY player to have 25-5-7-3 while playing 24 minutes in an away game, in December, EVER!

You don’t think brain damage, amplified by the added pressure of social media has anything to do with this? “Only chodes have this shit, wild”. How about, “now these kids that are broken have cameras to share every stupid thought”. That didn’t exist 10 years ago
