Duffee probably got more time off seeing he dislocated his own shoulder throwing haymakers.

Real talk: would a guy starting with the UFC right now be better off joining the army? I think the US Army pays around $20k for the first few years, but I assume they cover rent and all associated "training costs" involved.
That and after you get "cut" by the army, don't they pay for your tuition fees or whatever?

At this point your probably better off at McDonalds. Only join the UFC if you're a fight hobbyist.
Do they? How so?
Hahaha nice.

Catching up on recent UFC events, the hot minute of Mir vs Duffee was the most entertaining and simultaneously technical worst main card fight I've seen.
That's why you don't really want the UFC to only employ good, technical fighters that are representative of MMA as a professional sport, you also need these big, wild, amateur slugs that wouldn't look out of place in a 2005 Kimbo Slice backyard fighting Youtube highlight reel to spice things up.

Stich (Cutman) talks real talk about how the Reebok deal has made some things tougher (and mentions that the cutmen are not "allowed" to also work at other MMA shows)

Stitch looked like a walking billboard. Seriously, have some self respect. Who said you could wear all those patches? Your free ride on UFC cameras is over.

you think dana really gives a fuck about looking like a billboard?
danas fine with it if the money is going into the ufc's pockets. corn nuts, are official snack of the ufc, for godsake.
we should all stop pretending like mma is anything more than the human cockfighting we all love.

That sucks about Stitch. I met him years ago at a WEC event and he seemed like a cool dude. He's a staple at pretty much every combat sporting event though, so I think he'll do alright. UFC is on some bullshit with this though.

I think this whole cutman thing is the UFC's way of saying "we want our cutmen/doctors to look like medical professionals."
Yes, I somehow managed to type that with a straight face.
I eagerly await seeing someone in the media get blackballed from UFC events for asking Dana about Stitch.

I don't see what's to laugh about. They want their human cock fighters to be seen as athletes.

Dana got a lot of nerve telling someone else to dress more professionally
Guy's idea of "Business casual" is a ratty t-shirt and tru religion jeans. He's a walking midlife crisis.

At this point I'm inclined to believe that a lot of key decision making has been delegated to Reebok. Either that or Reebok have been handed veto powers over certain decisions.

I remember reading a story a few years ago about how Stitch and Steve Mazagatti are (or were) best friends and wanted to break into the fighting business together and they both wanted to be refs but there wasn't enough jobs for the two of them so Stitch decided to learn to be a cut man. Mazagatti said he later regretted choosing to be the ref cause everyone hates him and everyone loves Stitch. Now they've both been screwed by the UFC - an outcome that happens to literally almost everyone that comes into contact with them.

Speaking of Mazzagatti, whatever happened to him? I've not heard of him since Burkman choked out Fitch.

He was a ref on the Invicta card earlier this month.

I have no doubt that it's a bit of an exaggerated character hes portraying. Listening to his dad on the MMA hour, he seems to have a very good group of people around him in his family and gym, so I doubt they would let him be foolish with money.
In saying that, he definitely gets LOTS of free stuff now, and is making 7 figures per fight now.

Wasn't he just renting it?
dana was probably paying for it

Have you all forgotten about the "Notorious" TV minidoc that aired on FS1? I guarantee you Conor or Dana didn't pay a dime and cameras followed him every second with all production cost paid for with the proceeds for the upcoming "Notorious 2."

Will "Notorious 2" chronicle his road to redemption after being viciously knocked unconscious by Jose Aldo?

This shit isn't funny brehs. There's a million ways to casually shake hands now and you never know what you're going to get out there. I have a friend who does it differently every time, shit drives me nuts.
