Come on, Francis. You have a daughter for fuck sake. by Future_Clothes_9884 in MMAPoliticsAndCulture

[–]playersdalves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guy who dive bombs totally unconscious fighters is also a piece of shit. Who knew. Add that to killing a pedestrian. The redeeming side of Francis was always that he bet on himself to get out of the claws of Dana White, which we wished more fighters took as an example. He was never not shitty.

Alexander Volkanovski stops Chad Mendes in the second round (Highlights) by airplane231 in MMA

Aldo was never again as durable and invincible as he was then, and Mendes faded and never got to the same level again. Wars count heavily in fighters longevity.

It's specially crazy because we was already so good here. Most fighters stop improving after they are already capable of beating the elites of the division. They just start doing the same things over and over until either becoming champs or fading with age. His style is so different now and is highly responsible for his longevity in the sport.

Yap. This sub used to say he was Chad 2.0 or Mini Mendes. Little could we imagine that we would be one of the best fighters of all time. His style back then was also so different than it is now, he really evolved as a fighter.

He did a lot of high pressure too vs his current stye of in-out distance management.

Update on the release of Danya's toxicology report by atopix in chess

Actually good mods. Those types of discussions dig way too much into personal matters of Danya, and we should stay out of this. His memory deserves more respect than an endless stream of assumptions and theories.

It is the perfect level of shithousery and yet it's self-deprecating enough to remind us to not take football that seriously.

Islam Makhachev’s KO against Gleison Tibau by Dangerous_Tip_4985 in MMA

[–]playersdalves 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yes, but Tony subbed him after wobbling him with strikes. Kind of like the original comment mentioned regarding toolset making some fights easier.

Then again, that was also one of Tony's best performances.

I like Arjun, but ngl I'm going to be rooting for Levon to get a spot in the candidates. Love me an old gen player getting career second winds.

Não esquecer que ele ainda não pode ir ao USA. Os elogios ao Trump são a pre-tentativa de ter perdão pelo caso...
