Heel, I believe you were looking for this thread.

Which begs the question, why did you have the 152 thread open?

Searched for me wanting to see Brimage vs. Holloway and posted the quote in the wrong thread, haha.

Brimage wants the winner of Garcia vs. Holloway, aka wants to fight Holloway. What a fight.
 
Brah you should have ended that post with this:

Dana going off on people who are shitting on Cah-yeen for the Brown Pride tat, saying when he lived in Boston there were fuckloads of Italians with Italian tattoos and Irish people with similar shit too. Said it really pisses him off.

One of Dana's employees has been taking a couple BJJ classes and now he thinks he can roll with Joe Lauzon. Dana sets it up to happen in the Octagon. Hilarity ensues.

Rogan's line at the very end was hilarious. He delivered that perfectly

Honestly I think Cain is going to get knocked out even worse this time.

Yeah I see a clean ko instead of a tko
 
MMA Gaf is mostly ironically mocking the ridiculous MMA community at large (see: Sherdog forums) where a fighter is only ever as good as his last win / loss and other than the champ and a few contenders everyone else is just shit and wasting their precious card space.

There are top 5 fighters in their divisions who are considered "cans" just because some people don't like them for example, these people are dumb.
Just like how there's a ridiculous yet obvious "warning, this shit is violent" warning before every event, I feel like this should be present as well for when UFC-GAF comes in and thinks we're actually being serious.

JDS being a baby face doesn't work when his opponent doesn't want to engage anyone in any kind of meaningful, insightful conversation.
This why we NEED JDS to send Cain's soul to another plain of existence again. Say what you want about him, but The Reem is charismatic and would engage JDS.
 
JDS has already actually been talking mad shit about Reem too. Reem has actually been the more cordial one as far as their rivalry goes.
 
His Killing the King series is quite good in general. He has a write-up on Jones which I agree with completely, of how no one really challenges his legs from the inside and instead just make the same mistakes of falling prey to his advantages.

I don't expect Cain to do any of what Jack has written in that article though. I suspect he will not have adapted. It'd be a nice surprise to be proven wrong though, if only to get a more interesting fight.
 
OP updated with odds.

It feels like the oddsmakers have gotten a lot more savvy (or safe?) this year. Very rarely do I find a line that's just flat out wrong in my mind anymore.

If anything I'm surprised to see Philippou as a small favorite (well, basically a pick'em) and Brunson that small of a dog. I'll pick them both to win.

agreed, although I do think they're Yushin too much credit just because he already beat Alan that one time. Alan will win the rematch by trying something utterly stupid that you should never try to do against Okami and somehow pulling it off. such is his way. never forget, this is the guy who said after the Dennis Kang fight that he was 'really surprised by his ground game'.
