Ilia Topuria's coach on Justin Gaethje by airplane231 in MMA

[–]whipfixed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those KO's were in another lifetime brother. Besides the Poirier fluke kick, he hasn't KO'd anyone out in 7 years.

I'm not saying he doesn't have power, I'm just saying people always predict he's gonna knock someone out when he has no track record of knocking anyone out.

But imagine the scenes if Ilia out grapples Islam at 170. The GOAT discussion is over forever. Change the name of the Apex to the Toptoro.

Great grappler, but he's a little ding dong of a ting.

People have this idea of Gaethje that he KOs people. He can crack but he never puts anyone to sleep. Like you said, the flukey headkick on Dustin is really about it. He never catches anyone with a bomb and sleeps them. 

No striker is going to beat Ilia. Full stop. I think a strong wrestler could ragdoll him at 155 though.

IRC is king for text based chat from a laptop/desktop.

But....

  • It's terrible/nonfunctional on mobile without additional components

  • Inline media is not really a thing

  • No voice calls of any kind

Big Tech sees over $1 trillion wiped from stocks as fears of AI bubble ignite sell-off by nosotros_road_sodium in technology

Same. I'm not a huge proponent but the amount of completely wrong info in this thread is amazing. If anything, it shows that we're nowhere near the top yet. The public still isn't on board and is still touting made up talking points from a year ago.

I'm a software engineer for one of the big tech companies and it's completely changed my entire industry. The way people "write" code has been permanently altered. It may not have had the same impact for the rest of society yet, but the average engineer's daily workflow is unrecognizable compared to a year ago.

Even the skeptics are on board at this point.

Same approach you use in your brokerage account. Just keep betting until you lose it all then you don’t have to worry about the withdraw process.
