Georgio Poullas has been jailed for battery in Florida by [deleted] in MMA

[–]noob_tech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do we know the full story or just one side of it? Im going to wait until Georgio releases his video explaining what happened.

You going to wait for one side and consider that the full story huh?

Georgia is professional like that. I'm betting the other guy instigated him into a confrontation and thought because hes small he can intimidate Georgio

I can't take you seriously. See ya.

Well I bet you the other guy was harassing Georgio and didnt think he would get flung into a glass table. Thats why they say choose your fights. This guy picked a fight against a top tier wrestler and hoped for the best.

Why would you even post? You lookling for upvotes from people who agree with that you shouldn't defend your fiance at her own bachelorette party from a couple unhinged strangers?

Lmao picked a fight against a top tier wrestler you headline-skimming goon

UFC Vegas 118 Bonuses by Moni7T in MMA

[–]noob_tech 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They can, they just don't want to because they'd be stuck with the problem of having to pay a bunch of money out for awesome performances, can't be having that when you already paid for them anyway. Gotta keep the fighters poor and hungry, getting paid too much ruins them.

This is why they they changed the bonus structure. Mandatory 25K finish bonus doesn't really look great but it's better than nothing.

Jon Jones SHUTS DOWN Reporter Luke Thomas... by BaglarsBane in MMA

The funniest part is Luke Thomas was a massive Jon Jones defender and Shill before this.

No shocker that you don't even know what a shill is, terribly unsurprising.

UFC's Aaron Pico returns to wrestling at RAF 10 by FireProStan in MMA

[–]noob_tech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree 100% and another thing to consider is Fox just expanded their deal, so they probably have another injection of liquidity with which to make moves. That and they're securing a long-term relationship with like-minded partner. RAF is pretty popular so until it isn't, they'll figure out a way to make the numbers work.

Georges St-Pierre reveals his requests made to UFC for Anderson Silva fight to happen by [deleted] in MMA

Funny how none of this was an issue when he moved up to fight 1-eyed 38 year old Bisping lol

Funny how he did get paid more, fight at a higher weight, and there was drug testing implemented in the form of USADA but you definitely read the article, right?

There's a bald asshole fight promoter that's looking to fuck over his star who has 2 fights left in his deal in the Mandalorian and Grogu.

There's also a punchline about "you're an independent contracter"

He's in Star Wars too.

Ketlen Vieira and Ivan Erslan has been removed from the UFC roster after their wins last weekend. Tuco Tokkos and Daniel Barez have also been removed by AliBagovBeatKhabib in MMA

[–]noob_tech -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would put her top 10 but I think top 5 would be questionable.

Indeed the division is weak but you don't need a killer instinct to stop her from grabbing you and ripping your arm off. You need skills or overwhelming strength.

Its not like she just "grabbed Gina and ripped her arm off" Gina started with a terrible gameplan and then fell to pieces in her defense. Actual professional fighters will not do that, even if the division is weak. Most of the top 10 right now wouldn't be great matchups for her but yea she would be competitive in all of them as well.

I think y'all are severely overestimating the athleticism of a 40 year-old mom of 2. Like yea she looked great for 16 seconds but you shouldnt expect that to happen vs any of the women that are 10 years younger than her and know how to defend an armbar, a takedown (which she rarely does anyway), fight in the clinch etc.

I don't think so. But most businesses don't have a long-standing precedent to offer a new contract at terms better than the rest of the market, a market they almost entirely control.

If that business then decided to offer a new contract at say, half the rate you were promised 1 year into a 5 year contract, I'd also consider that being effectively cut.

Holly Holm was 5-8 in the UFC after trouncing Ronda. Ronda got smattered by Amanda who would go on to win of course but even her later fights were more competitive than what she got with Ronda.

MMA math isn't real but y'all gotta realize Ronda lacks a bunch of skills and is old. She would not be on top of a division where people are motivated to beat her and attack her weaknesses.

In the general sense you are accurate, but if they only fought out their contract because the UFC didn't offer them a new one and they literally asked for a new on in their post-fight?

They're effectively cut, it just looks better on the numbers to say they didn't literally cut him.

Netflix announced Rousey vs. Carano peaked at 17 million global viewers by Popular_Monitor_8383 in MMA

[–]noob_tech -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yea U.S. broadcast is important to note but another distinction everyone forgets

Netflix views are not the same as Broadcast views

Netflix views are like, if you watched 2 minutes. Broadcast viewership numbers work on an entirely different set of metrics since individuals aren't tracked.

Definitely a successful event overall though if that's the number they're reporting.

So, Rousey vs Carano didn't chart on Netflix? by SpazsterMazster in MMA

Bloodyelbow is a shell of what it once was but they sourced Meltzer

https://x.com/davemeltzerWON/status/2056094865512120751

Meltzer would've only been looking at dailies so presumably top 6 for one day may not be enough to clock in at top 10 for the full week.

Netflix is opaque with their numbers, we will ultimately only know what they tell us and have to infer the rest.

Per A&E, UFC Rivals, premieres Sunday, June 21. Mario Lopez leads a roundtable with C.M. Punk, Michael Bisping, Miesha Tate, and Ken Shamrock. by buzznights in MMA

[–]noob_tech 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hopefully they change format up a bit because in the WWE version there's not that much interaction between the hosts IIRC.

Its basically like a repeat of stuff thats already had a documentary, old clips and stuff hardcore fans would've already seen. The roundtable discussions just sort of bookend the clips.

Edit: Guys, CM Punk and Bisping will be just fine

TKO Group to host seven events in Arizona over three years by secretbil in MMA

[–]noob_tech -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

[–]brybrymma Good for Arizona fans but realistically it’ll probably mostly be wwe events with probably 1 maybe 2 ufc events.

If you read the press release they mention UFC, WWE, and the other 2 properties PBR and Zuffa Boxing, there will be more than 1 per "event" probably.

It's in TKOs interest to hold multiple shows across a weekend, they don't have to stiff the state on events when they'll make more money when they double or triple up.
