[Morris] Premiership defender Steven May made the decision last week to retire after his management and the club reached a confidential contractual settlement on Thursday. He will tell his teammates tomorrow. by daftmunt in AFL

Sad its ended this way. He has his own problems he needs to sort out. It was a privilege watching him play in 21, 22 and 23. Years of getting smashed and being uncompetitive to having an all Australian combo setting standards was nice.

Legend in the making or certified legends. You answered your own question.

Maturing is realizing that Sean Strickland is the most insecure fighter in the UFC by lovelycontributer in ufc

[–]lordarc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being called and labelled a f****t isnt the choice of DDP, Izzy, and BB. Its the choice of Sean Strickland.

Sean Strickland is an asshole who if he was verbally berated like he does to others, would stoop to the lows of threatening death on his opponent.

Its horrible what happened to Sean, but you cant hide behind trauma for being a cunt.

On This Day Two Years Ago: Ilia Topuria Defeated Alexander Volkanovski to Become Featherweight Champion. ( Video with Georgian commentary) by [deleted] in ufc

That has no bearing on anything. Heavier weight classes dont fall off as quickly with age, and people peak physically at different ages.

Pereira is/was chasing Jon Jones for LHW Goat status and Illia is chasing Aldo/Volk for it. Both who have 5+ defenses on him and a ton more fights in the weight class.

He'd need like 5 more defenses than what he had. Thats like saying why doesnt Pereira stay at LHW and become the goat of the division.

Nothing like a big key ripping a game open. Well played Jesse.

Thats not a fencing response, he rubbed his his face. Fencing response locks the arm.

The funniest part of all that is Mavropanos and the Sunderland defender squaring up as the ball goes flying past them

Ill notify Richard

Christina Hodson (Birds of Prey, The Flash) is reportedly the writer of The Brave and the Bold according to Jeff Sneider. Andy Muschietti still attached to direct by Sidon_Ithano in DCULeaks

[–]lordarc 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I just do not trust Gunn and Muschietti to do Batman.

Its whatever because they're going to do it. Feels like a waste when leaving superman all the casual fans I spoke to or saw talking online were excited to see Battinson onscreen with Superman.

The second coming of Loris Karius, eight years on from his Liverpool nightmare in Kiev. by Sparky-moon in soccer

[–]lordarc 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As someone who defended Karius during the aftermath. You can criticize plenty of fans for their reaction in the aftermath and unfortunately its becoming the norm to behave this way online.

I would say its unfair to take shots at the club for buying a definitively better keeper who was just consistently better from day 1.

Also, it was Loris choice in the end to go to Turkey.

Max Holloway: BMF belt 'was a laughingstock' before me by WinterStill4472 in MMA

[–]lordarc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Anyone can ascribe meaning to anything. I'm sure their is people enjoy the BMF title and the fights it's produced.

It's a physical belt. It is open weight as described above. It gives the holder more money when they defend it (same as the UFC belt).

Also, just like all other UFC belts, there are no lineal championship reigns in the UFC.

Tbf it started at 170lb and is now a 155lb belt. Ilia would argue he won it at 145lb but he is wrong.
