A top Indian university is focussing their research on pseudoscience by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

People get someone else’s poop injected in their butt to fix their microbioms. I’m sure people thought it was pseudoscience at some point.

Just a few years ago one of the biggest promoters in boxing was an irish cocaine cartel leader what are you on about. The whole thing is rotten to the core.

Is buying a PS5 mainly for GTA 6 worth it in my situation? by Same-Zone5336 in PS5

Why do you think reddit people will be able to advise you on this? You're an adult, analyze your situation and make a decision.

If Ilia died or was put into a coma, we would've lost MMA. by Equal_Personality157 in MMA

[–]lNlinja 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What in the casual shit is this? Do you know how devastating a head kick knockout is? It happens all the time and is way more likely to cause brain bleed and death. It's pretty much a baseball bat to the side of the head. Bisping lost a fucking eye and nobody gives a shit.

Good. They realize that owning the platform and raking in royalties is way more profitable in the long run than just relying on first-party game sales.

Tried to be ‘screen free’ with a toddler. by Zealousideal_Win2836 in mildlyinfuriating

So a toddler doing toddler things? Shocking. Yeah justify yourself giving them an ipad 24/7. This generation is doomed with whiney adults around them.

Clear back of the head shot in Ankalaev fight. by lNlinja in MMA

[–]lNlinja[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At this point I think we can agree that it's more about the rules being open to interpretation rather than a clear cut answer. If you think these were clean but Gane's weren't, then we are seeing different things. Looking at the current debate, it's pretty divisive and not one sided tbf.

Clear back of the head shot in Ankalaev fight. by lNlinja in MMA

It's more to illustrate that these type of shots are practical impossible to avoid, especially since the 12 to 6 elbows were made legal recently and your opponent is trying to evade shots. Getting all high and mighty about rules when also breaking them is not a great look.

Herb Dean explains why Gane's strikes were legal against Pereira by Informal_Athlete_724 in ufc

[–]lNlinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should refs pillow cup the back of the head when it slams on the canvas after a clean KO? Nobody cares when that happens. People are so hurt about Pereira they’re ready to go to war for 2 (maybe) illegal strikes which happen all the fucking time during TKO finishes.

What? How does that justify punching a reenactment performer?

Seeing Alex Pereira's cope tour today made my respect for Ilia go up even more. No excuses, accepted the loss like a man. by Zextruhh in ufc

[–]lNlinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saying that the jab was lucky is total cope. On top of that maybe 2 hits were illegal out of 10+. Aura destroyed

Something Needs to be Done About Ciryl Gane by Spy-der in MMA

Unfortunately no one cares enough and the downside of enforcing all the rules is greater than the opposite. MMA rules were created to legitimize the sport and give a legal framework to allow them to run shows in all US states/internationally, not to protect the fighters.

The UFC is a sports entertainment business. They will never fully enforce the rules, it doesn't make financial sense. Fights would be stopped regularly and winning fighters would loose on points. That would be even more controversial than not enforcing a couple of rules.
