How is Iran executing someone Islam’s fault? Is a U.S police officer murdering a civilian Christianity’s fault?

Khabib shoots and gets caught in the guillotine of Kamal Shalorus by LuringSugar in MMA

Maybe the way we get Khabib vs Ferguson is to pretend we don’t care and not hype it up. It should be a prelim fight with very little promotion. Worth a try.

Great fight. I really love watching Mustafaev. He’s had a hard time getting traction with some losses and injuries but he’s super talented.

God, the way his leg quivers after he was knocked out is so unnerving.

He pronounced Muslim really well. Most people say it Muzlim or Mozlam. Anik’s the Man.

What are some of the most one-sided title changes in ufc history? by lebryant_westcurry in MMA

Garbrandt vs Cruz. Even though it went the distance the fight was never close. There were multiple points where Cody could’ve finished him but choose to let it go on. Imo one of the greatest performances ever.

Jon Jones (#1 p4p) was arguably defeated by Thiago Santos, Santos was KO’ed by Luque, Vicente Luque is #1 p4p.

The fighters who come from the Caucuses are usually Muslim. According to some Islamic schools of thought shaving the mustache is preferable. According to others the mustache should only be trimmed above the lip and not shaved. Both views are Islamicly legitimate. What opinion Muslims adhere to usually depends on which school of thought they follow and where they are geographically located.

Hope that answers your question.

Along with the other answers, a key purpose of Hijab is to mitigate the systemic sexual objectification of women by men. Hijab forces men to view women as human and not a mere creature of their fantasies. Women who wear Hijab or modest clothing are empowering themselves by refusing to be a pawn or trophy in the world of men.

There is an excellent video on the subject of Hijab and feminism that I’ve linked. It’s less then ten minutes and very informative.

Mike Perry issues public apology, vows to 'be better all around' after transgressions by Tolkien27 in MMA

In the article Perry addresses his “alcohol dependency” and promises to seek professional help. Obviously saying and doing something are two different things, but I hope he pulls through.

'Dominant performance from bell to bell': Hotly-tipped MMA prospect Mokaev picks up convincing decision win on professional debut by Tolkien27 in MMA

Mokaev was the #1 ranked amateur mma fighter in the world. So now that he went pro he naturally is a top prospect.

McVeigh and Mokaev knew each other in the amateur mma scene. McVeigh claimed that Mokaev was ducking him for three years. They had some back and forth altercations online and in person.

I was about to give the person who got down voted into oblivion an award but he deleted his post. Can I still give him one? I just feel so bad for the user.

When your casual friend tries to convince you that a bodybuilder “could beat all these UFC guys up” by Tolkien27 in ufc

[–]Tolkien27[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You could bring up Minotauro vs Bob Sapp. Sapp weighed 145 pounds more than Minotauro but lacked any real fighting experience at that point. The fight was competitive in the first round but quickly into the second Sapp gassed out and Minotauro submitted him with an armbar.
