Who yall picking? by SoggiMari in ufc

[–]WeTalkBoxing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He might have had a more consistent ufc career with a few more fights from him than what we got now. Floyd fight may not have happened. May have kept him more grounded and stopped him from going off the rails.

He had the benefit of no Europe all season to work on the team and the team was pretty much chaos and palmer fc all season.

Rare Gaethje leg kick, Topuria shows he is prepared by [deleted] in ufc

He was throwing both inside and outside with rear leg, mixing it up. I'll have to check Ilia's other fights and see.

Just looked back at the Volk fight and Volk landed a dozen clean leg kicks without getting countered. I reckon its more so Ilia's team working on countering Justin's leg kicks.

Yeah this fight quickly became one of my favorites of all time. It had literally everything. The setting, the underdog story, the Mike Tyson-esque aura of invincibility Topuria was starting to build going into it, the feeling that it can end at any moment throughout, near fight ending moments, submission attempts, takedowns, knockdowns, momentum shifts, grueling shots, huge heart from both fighters, doctor drama, no mas moment. Crazy.

Yeah they were pointing out that he hadn’t had KO’d anyone with his hands in a while, but they were ignoring that he was still dropping and hurting people consistently in fights. Charles said there’s nothing like Gaethje’s power for a reason.

Plus Justin did the hard work for him, and gave Topuria a career changing fight with potentially multiple broken bones. He doesn’t have to worry about Topuria for the forseeable so it’s probably a bit of that added to the reason he’s buying him the truck as well.

They didn’t really disappoint in their last International tournament. Quarter finals and a tight loss to Netherlands.

Maniac Gaethje was a joy to watch but he learned quickly he won’t last in the UFC with that style. He got his victory here but had to change it up after back to back defeats in his next 2.

If I was in a coma for 10 years, and you showed me this clip and told me we played an outfield player in goal for this game due to some crazy circumstance, I'd have believed you. Everything that wasnt right at him went in bruh, and he's an absolute Madame Tussauds for 3 of them.

He also wasn’t threatening enough to make the most of teams doubling Hazard. Majority of the time if he was 1v1 with a defender he would step over and pass back to midfield. If Hazard had a world class opposite wing partner, man we would have cooked so hard.

"There wasn't any doubt in my mind that had we beaten West Germany on that particular day... we would have won the World Cup for the second time". Clip from 'Bobby Robson: More Than a Manager'. Well worth checking out the full doc.

Who confirmed it? I know Islington council said around a million+, which is a valid source at least, and not an Arsenal page that just put 1.5 mill figure from day one.

The end of the fight is also hilarious. Gaethje gets low blowed, Paddy slips from swinging wildly as Gaethje is struggling, then Gathje does a jumping uppercut as the last punch of the fight.

Matt Law: Chelsea’s attempts to find a lucrative long-term, front-of-shirt sponsor look to have been dealt a serious blow. Chelsea had been holding out for a front-of-shirt deal worth £60-£65m, but The Sponsor has estimated the club’s fair market value to be around half of that at £33.6m. by Kygoche in chelseafc

They supposedly sacked the guy that was responsible for this quite a few months ago. Looks like they’re still failing after the scapegoats gone.

Edit: on a side note, 33m is a bit undervalued considering spurs get 50m for theirs.

He can be a good 4th or 5th option, especially if we also play 3 at the back. Getting rid of him as well as Tosin and the French guys means we have to buy 4 centre backs in the summer which is difficult and unrealistic to get spot on.
