Yeah I think Cormier has come off the lesser in all this. Jones is a lot smarter than most people realise.

Yeah Jones is a smart operator all right. He controls himself very well in these interviews while getting under peoples skin by doing it. He's definitely putting on the whole nice guy thing, he's not that good an actor but its pretty effective at getting to DC. And come fight night I'd wager DC is gonna be decidedly more affected than him by all the exchanges.

Prob one of the best fights i've ever seen

Mr. Manager

Zambidis has some of the best highlight reels going.

K-1 an organisation that is very much missed. Thankfully, its demise wasn't anything to do with Zuffa taking it over.

Meta 4 kicking off now.
Chael, Lister, Barnatt, Galvao..."let's take all the drugs"

$30 for the stream? I think ill pass!

Vim Fuego

It was $20 last year and just about worth it. Very high quality HD stream (once they sorted the initial bugs). $30 is a bit steep IMO.

Hooks and flying knees. I still remember his fight with Satoro Suzuki in 2005. He was just mixing head kicks and hooks with ease. Great guy to watch.

Hunt clears up unemployment confusion.

"Looking forward to japan sept 20 troops sorry about unemployment tweet I was hungry no carbs"

Ha???

Where's the best place to watch old ufc, pride and k-1 events? Not looking for any in particular just all of them really.

Apart from singular fights and highlights on youtube can't find any pre ufc100 or pride cards at all. There's no box sets on amazon/ebay only singular dvds at around €10 a pop.

Does fight pass contain the whole ufc and pride back catalogue?

Yup, pretty much all Pride, Strikeforce, EliteXC, UFC etc.

That Zambidis fight is incredible, Chahid looked like he had been shot in the face at the end

Superb, entertainment gold.

He's absolutely brimming with that crazy personality, and it seems so much more genuine that McGregor who (IMO) gives the impression of playing the media game a fair bit.

Just got around to watching Metamoris 4 and I can't wait for the next one, it was great fun and really well done production wise.

Yeah i enjoyed it myself! Barnett pulling off the upset was amazing!

Mr. CooL ICE

Can somebody explain how Chael could compete? I thought his ban was from all martial arts competition, not just MMA.

His Lawyers said the NSAC doesnt have any authority over grappling atall.

""There is no dispute that the NSAC has no jurisdiction or authority to regulate, license or sanction jiu-jitsu and other forms of grappling. Moreover, jiu-jitsu does not fall within the Nevada definition of unarmed combat because it does not involve ‘blows’ of any kind. Likewise, it would be a violation of due process to expand the interpretation of ‘fighting’ broader than the statutory definition of unarmed combat. In our view, there could be no violation under NRS 467.885 as any interpretation to include jiu-jitsu or grappling would be outside of the NSAC’s jurisdiction and constitute an invalid order."

Jeff glover is a twat despite his technical ability.

Disengaging constantly and seemingly not taking his competitor seriously is an insult to the sport.

The guy has always been a complete fcukin lunatic, total waste of space and deserves to spend the rest of his life behind bars, i think this may even be his last strike in the 3 strikes and you're out (life) rule

Zero-Cool

Nasty stuff altogether. I saw a pic of the 2 of them with their tattoos. She has 'property of war machine' on her back and he has 'MACK' across his throat. Then saw him tweeting while he was/is still on the run saying he still loves her.

ASOT

Yeah hes on the run and still tweeting, sure fire way to get yourself caught! Seen the pictures and stuff, he beat he up pretty bad, made her shower infront of him before it to! Apparently went to rape her but couldnt get hard so smacked her a bit more before she managed to run out the back door.

Whatever else he is I've a lot of time for Duane Chapman since the Andrew Luster thing.
