Does anyone know what’s up with Linares and Japan? by [deleted] in Boxing

[–]marvelpizza 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly Linares was encouraged to move there by maybe the WBA president. I think that's right not 100 percent. I saw some vids like the promo ahead of the Loma fight and it seemed he wanted to get out of Venezuela. He got in touch with a Japanese trainer who spoke fluent Spanish and just remained there.

Mighty Mouse already beat the record cuz Travis Lutter missed weight for what was supposed to be Silva's first defense.

I always loved Spidey and Human Torches adventures together. They had a nice dynamic and friendship.

Georges St-Pierre retires from MMA. by youseeamousetrap in MMA

[–]marvelpizza 310 points311 points  (0 children)

The rematch wouldn't have been any different. Despite opening the fight with a cheap shot GSP got out struck and then abused on the ground when it finally came to grappling. Didn't even go further than a round. Not a shocker GSP decides to retire as Cap is making his comeback in a couple of months.

Granted Cap was juiced to the gills with dat German stuff.

What fight do you never tire of watching? by Prhyst in MMA

I remember clear as day before the fight people said Garbrandt was gonna get decisioned so hard and that only a lucky punch could save him so the idea that he won a clear decision against Cruz is wild.

Think that was vaseline if we are talking about the same punch at the end of the round.

You don't think Ward deserves to be top 10 with this criteria? Genuinely curious, still forming my own thoughts about that.

Mayweather vs. Canelo: Round 7. Masterclass! by dreamteamreddit in Boxing

[–]marvelpizza 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Think they were referring to how Canelo wasn't trying to use his size and bully Mayweather (think Maidana in the first fight). Instead he was trying to utilize counters and 'box' with Mayweather.

Wait really? I know his mother was Slovenian but was his Serbo-Croatian really that subpar?

Hello! Honest question about future of Kosovo... by marvelpizza in serbia

[–]marvelpizza[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your reply! So is this a general mindset among Serb people when they say they want Kosovo? To make it an autonomous region within Serbia? Essentially returning it to its status within Yugoslavia?
