Yeah I called him Mirko Bisping many moons ago, because he looks like someone spliced the genes of Mirko Cro Cop and Michael Bisping.I called him Big Bisping in the Nerd Chat. His fighting style is similar as well.

its amazing how UFC and other fight promotions can managed to spin the amount of sponsorship money as part of their fighter pay.

You guys in NYC should go out and support a kickboxing card in the U.S. that doesn't suck. Hell, you might even get to see Sp*ng legit kill Dustin Jacoby.
I wish UFC or the commission would do something about this pressing up against the cage tactic that Shileds and Evans love to exploit. Its far worse than LnP because at least when someone is getting LnP they get in some decent GnP and there is a chance of getting subbed. But this grinding on the cage tactic is just weak pitter patter shots and its just painfully boring. It is exploiting the rules at its absolute worst and really sucks the air out of the crowd.
Don't get me wrong, I love a good grappling fight when both fighters are activity going for subs. Saku/Newton as a prime example on how to grapple fight
id like to see hunt vs Nelson, too. also hendo vs thiago and Evans vs gegard would be nice to see
The irony.Agreed.
Which was why Cormier did not impress me vs. Mir. Oh, you can hold him against the cage for three rounds? Congratu-fucking-lations.

OH THE IRONY.
Nintendo fans are amazing. Mario Kart best looking next gen game, Wii U sales will pick up... but diminishing returns, and Xbone and Ps4 will bomb as hard or harder than the Wii U because of the economy.
They are so special.

I demand links.
Edit: Y'all should buy Jagged Alliance 2, it's on sale at GOG.
That was a fun game. Too bad about the repeated attempts at remakes being absolute dog shit.

you don't think mario kart looks good?
Does anyone know if there's just an audio source for MMA Hour episodes? I'd like to listen to the Couture/Pettis segments but can't watch the video.
I'm at work and can't use iTunes (guess I should've specified). Oh well no biggy, I can wait till I get home and dl them and just listen to them tomorrow.
It looks very clean and colorful and offers a nice image compared to most PS3/360 games. I have to draw a line though when one says MK8 was the most visually impressive game of E3, especially when this particular group is the main proponent of diminishing returns in PS4/X1 games.
Ah ok, yeah, I'm just seeing video on the site, with no mention of audio, but there they are on itunes.
Also, Jerry is uping his culture points since I noticed he is using Goodreads, spend more time in the "now reading" thread!
Speaking of reading, I'm absolutely loving Caliban's War. Love the touches of Dead Space. I really needed a book like this after slogging through American Tabloid.
You're done with the series now, right?

Well I would've said yes since I finished Abaddon's Gate and thought it was just a trilogy, but they signed on for 3 more books of the series to finish their overall story idea, and 5 short novella's, so there's lots of content coming, which is great, because I loved every book. Each book has felt very different too. Glad to hear you're loving it.
What is this crap? Keep the kideos out.you don't think mario kart looks good?
Per Jackie, effective immediately, fighters and talent traveling on press tours and PR/marketing-related appearances are no longer permitted to wear shorts or flip flops. Jeans are acceptable and shoes are a must.
THERE'S BIGGER NEWS!!!
Benson is reporting:
Fucking finally. I hope the next step is to mandate that fighters all wear suits at post-fight press conferences.
Putting mma fighters in suits is like silk scarves on pigs. These aren't elite athletes. These are joes fighting for 5/5.

While I agree with you (I did coin the "no employable skills" phrase, after all), I think the Ultimate should at least present the illusion of professionally. Nothing bothers me more than watching a "world champion" stroll into a press conference wearing a Papa John's Pizza t-shirt.

If they throw a suit jacket or a blazer over the Papa John's Pizza t-shirt, it becomes ironic and fashionable.
It looks good in a Ratchet and Clank on Ps3 kind of way. An extra bling here and there, but that's where it stops.
Funny though, to see the behavior. Face there would be too many links, just read over the NPD stuff and the Nintendo turning it around stuff. "It will start selling better than the Gamecube when these ips that were all on the Gamecube, launch for the Wii U".
Wind Waker HD is supposedly a system seller for christ sakes.
I strongly disagree! We're talking about people with terrible taste in general, who can't afford a stylist and would look like shit in a suit anyway because of being outrageously ugly/disfigured, out of shape, 5'4 or dat HGH gut.
Turning MMA into anything more than a sick spectacle will be the downfall of the UFC.
I can't wait to see some low level scrapper like the Immortal One Matt Brown suited up. That would be ironic enough.
I read a lot I just don't use Goodreads.
Nice. I'm all for that. Unless things take a drastic turn I dont want to leave this 'universe' for awhile.
Same, I absolutely love the characters and was glad to hear it's going to expand (pun intended) beyond the 3 books. So I'm hoping the releases keep coming yearly, I could see this series into a yearly reread for me. You really should read CyberStorm next, I am loving it, and it's terrifying in a very realistic way.
