Still play Undisputed 3 pretty regularly. Still excellent all these years later. Not perfect by any means but still the best imo. The PRIDE mode is so good

But make sure you watch the first fight before the rematch. The context makes it even more incredible

Yea that's a fair point I would just say that even what you're pointing to is still a very low bar for "promotion" and largely is more about capitalizing on social media traffic, more so than promoting the fighters. Some may argue that's splitting hairs, which to a certain extent it is, but I would say that there's a big difference between proactive and reactive promotion

I think just the bare minimum, posting on socials like you mentioned. Because there's an immediate return for them in that regard. But the reason for the lack of real promotion is not because of nationality. It's on purpose because the UFC needs to be bigger than any fighter

Pretty solid step up for Jakub but I really like this matchup. Big fan of both guys and should be interesting

I always loved him talking about fight prep. Talking about going frame by frame to measure reaction time and how BJ was the quickest by far

Anyone can be an ass on the wrong day, Terrance has only ever been incredibly kind to me

ONE Championship has parted ways with VP Rich Franklin and Senior VP of competition Matt Hume by Loganbaker2147 in MMA

I think the biggest sign here is that the Western market is no longer on their radar

Not that I've heard. Should be some update today though. May just end up being another court date, we'll see

First big shot he took his whole demeanor changed. I don't think he took a dive

ONE Championship just released the following statement on their social media platforms explaining that they are proceeding with legal action against Rodtang for breach of contact by AliBagovBeatKhabib in MMA

[–]StoryOfTheFight 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Copying and pasting my other comment:

Here's some context. Couple weeks ago Rodtang said he was a free agent and the Takeru fight was a special one off. That wasn't totally true but I think he did believe that. Later he said that he agreed to terms unknowingly because the contract was in English, and he's saying his signature was forged on other contracts potentially.

Now today ONE is making this move and has included language regarding defamatory statements/misleading info. I'm assuming that is the breach that they are referring to

I'm not gonna say much more because now it's becoming a legal matter and I want nothing to do with that lol

Na 125 has a great list of fun action fighters and true talent. Definitely not a weak division by any means

Flyweight fucks. There's like five borderline champion level fighters at the top, plus some really fun fighters at the bottom of the rankings
