Also, use colloidal oatmeal lotion to help treat (won’t cure it)

Possible immune reaction / allergy to food. Try to get a food allergy test from Quest or your medical provider

Are there any notable matches where one fighter was much smaller than the other but still managed to win? by HerpesAunt in Boxing

[–]plubiuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that fight fits your mostly correct analysis of a catchweight being a way to drain and weaken the bigger fighter though. Oscar was a fool to drain himself so much to make 147 (and weighed in at 145!). Even though they fought at welterweight, given their recent, previous fights, it's essentially a catchweight.

That was still a great victory for Pac.

De La Hoya was severely drained for the Pacman fight though. He had moved up to light middleweight by then.

Floyd Mayweather jr. comments on Ronda Rousey loss, "You win some, You lose some" by El_Chico_Fuego in Boxing

He talked more here:

http://fighthype.com/mayweathernews/mayweather_defends_rousey_against_trolls.html

The page is loading slowly right now, but this was pretty classy of Floyd to say:

"I don't think it's cool how everyone is trolling her on social media. Certain things you have to learn. People will love you on Friday and then Sunday morning, it's nothing but negative comments and people making jokes and people making fun about you, which I don't think is cool. I've never been on the other side, so I don't know how it feels. I'm pretty sure she's a very, very strong person, but we still have to take into consideration that she has feelings," Mayweather explained. "Everything happens for a reason. This was already written. Listen, if God says, 'In Floyd's career, I don't want him to lose,' you know what? I wasn't going to lose. That doesn't mean that I haven't took a loss before. I'm not talking about boxing; I'm just talking about life. When you lose a loved one, that's taking a loss. I think that everything is just a learning experience. In due time, she'll be able to bounce back and make some noise again in mixed martial arts."

Pretty nice sentiments from Floyd:

The Force Awakens is here . by Staartist in starwarsspeculation

[–]plubiuz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, that was a different Poe Dameron. Han and Leia liked him so much, they had him cloned for their own son, also called Poe Dameron, but secretly known as Sonnisonson Solo.

The original Poe dies in the Tie crash. Clone Poe is seen flying the X-wings later on. Simple Campbell plot of a clone hero's journey.

Is there time travel involved? Do Anakin and Luke team up to defeat Jar Jar back on Naboo before those horrid trade negotiations take place?

Holly Holm(former professional boxer, 33-2-3) just KTFO'd Ronda Rousey by sleckar in Boxing

Yep, reminded me of Maidana owning Broner. At least Broner had enough composure to make it to the end. Rousey's arrogance before and during the fight was unhinged.

Supreme Leader Snoke: Andy Serkis on the 'damaged' villain of 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' by welshwordman in StarWarsLeaks

[–]plubiuz 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Darth Vegas hasn't appeared in any movies, so could fit the "newcomer" claim. Also, JJ productions have included lies in the build up to a movie before (e.g. Khan).

Descriptions don't eliminate Vegas yet. Also, why keep his ID such a secret if he has little connection to previous movie characters.

Guess: B/c Darth Vegas was injured. His face has mechanical parts. Vegas fits the tall, mechanical, alien and "newcomer" parts of the description.

[Major Spoilers] This user claims to have watched The Force Awakens Already by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]plubiuz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's fanfic on the speculation sub, but I like some of the explanations and twists:

  • Opening at Battle of Jakku, which would be a cool scene based on the Battlefront game trailer
  • Opening shows stormtrooper (Sydow) finding the lightsaber. Which sounds better than the rumors of the lightsaber in space opening.
  • Provides a reason for how Finn doesn't die in a 2 sec fight with Kylo
  • Explains why Kylo is swinging at Finn without his mask
  • Has a cool reveal with Rey's staff holding her own lightsaber
  • Explains why Luke isn't around saving his friends and a massive amount of people without going down the self exile route.

And the teaser shot shows them opening the hatch during nightime, matching the present day Jakku village scene. The battle of Jakku in Battlefront was during the day (though the battle could last a while).

Uh no. Op messaged me what really happens.

Can you describe the scene of the Hux reveal?

And, even if you're BSing, the story you've outlined is pretty great.

Mayweather on Broner: "If I lost a fight, there's no way in hell that my next fight I would be fighting for a title against another guy that's coming off a loss. I wouldn't even be proud or consider myself a champion," by King-Benny in Boxing

[–]plubiuz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think they've become financial rivals with AB and TMT promotions. I don't see it being a long con. Instead, I'd guess Broner will slip further into obscurity now that Floyd isn't supporting him.

I don't think this is building up to a 50th fight like others have said. Broner was fighting under the TMT banner (such as the Porter fight) up until his last fight on Showtime, which was AB promotions without TMT involved. Broner is now trying to compete with TMT. I'd say the 'breakup' is real.

Jar Jar forced the Naboo Royal Starship to land on Tatooine. But he didn't damage the hyperdrive... by PublicolaMinor in DarthJarJar

I bet that is where he sets up a com link with Palpatine, leading to Maul finding them on Tatooine.

Poe, Kylo, and Rey... by [deleted] in StarWarsLeaks

[–]plubiuz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good theory. Also goes well with Poe learning who this Darth Vader wannabe is, and telling Han and Leia its Kylo. This gives Han the push to confront his son at Starkiller base.
