    Luckily I work in a super relaxed office. Sure I had to test a clients site www.tomscasino.com based on some dude called Tom of Finland so had all that jazz on screen for a few weeks.

    Others might not be so chilled out though...

    Eh? :confused: For what exactly in your modding expertise?

    If you feel that strongly report it and let the actual mods decide but considering there have been multiple variations of that pic posted on this forum it seems they've already decided in the past that its ok.

    FYI my knickers are too old and crusty to ever be untwisted.

    Fair enough but there was nothing to indicate it was a joke. The sentence re: reporting it was not directly solely at yourself but to anyone who has a problem with the content of what I posted....or more specifically a problem with me posting it.
    Been there, done that and still not going to be dragged into their online arguments.


    So......McGregor eh? He's some boy!

    Cruz talking about a move to 145. As an alternate to McGregor v Aldo. When McGregor made the move to face RDA, I gave him serious credit. Lots of champs have talking about moving up to fight for the belt. But Conor was one if the few who did it. BJ is arguably another.
    Cruz doing this would only increase my already huge opinion of him even further.
    Both BJ Penn and Randy couture are way ahead of Conor. They both are multiple weight class champions ( and the only ones for that matter ). The only thing new with Conor was, he was the first champion who tried to fight another champion (RDA) while holding a belt. That fight never happened unfortunately. Maybe if he manages to defeat Nate, he might get a shot at Robbie Lawlor or Eddie Alvarez.

    No arguing for BJ since he went up & won the welterweight title.
    Afraid not.
    When LW champ he moved up to fight for the WW belt but he lost (to GSP).

    No incumbent champ has ever fought for another belt and won. And both the two division champs won their second titles moving down divisions. Nobody has ever done it moving up. However Randy moved down and back again.
    Please ignore my previous post. I didnt know that BJ fought for the WW belt while he was a LW champ.

    Alvarez has said he wants to fight the winner of Diaz McGregor.

    Don't think Conor is stupid to fight a legit WW after the first Diaz fight, or maybe he is, he is cray.

    Imagine if Woodley beat Robbie and the Conor tried to fight Woodley...

    He'd be wrestle humped into bloody pulp.

    Not to worry. I had a confused really written out to the previous post, but it makes more sense now ;)

    I was thinking, remember all the JUST off the couch/3 week fight camp talk from alpha male fans, post mendes/mcgregor.

    Although nothings certain, I think we can assume chad had much more of an edge really than conor... he was juiced big time..

    I still like him as a fighter but that card cannot be played now, in fact assuming conor is not part of the reported 90% juicing in the UFC, he's doing well. Fair play to nate too, speaking out about it, not very eloquently at times :D but he speaks his mind.

    "Reported 90% juicing in the UFC"

    People pulling random numbers out of the air doesn't mean it's "reported".

    That was a figure from fighter and the kid, brendan schaub. No need to get pissy, Of course no one knows but what do you honestly think?? the whole russian olympic team banned this week... most of the best athletes around are using or have used. Exemptions for lesnar, and a bann for mendes!! UFC seem to be picking and choosing who gets what and when. I believe their using at a level on par with WWE..

    This has been debated here before. Brock got no different exemption that any other new or short notice replacement fighter would get. It's debatable whether any of them should get the four month exemption but as Mellor said before, people only seem to care now coz it's Brock.

    The more I hear from schaub the more I think he is just bitter he couldn't make it to elite of HW, I still like the podcast but only when it's not about MMA anymore

    Not pissy, Lol. just calling BS on so called "stats".
    Most of that is wrong tbh. Scaub has no idea how widespread it is. If it actually was 90%, he'd be included in that. It's just hyperbole.
    The UFC have no control over who gets tested.

    It's definitely widespread, in all sports imo. But I wouldn't comparing anything to the Russains. It's a lot easier to be a doper in a state program with zero testing. It's not just easy for those guys, it's a obligation.

    What about finding McGregor either dislikeable or distasteful has anything to do with self loathing?

    Don't know about jealousy but a dislike of someone representing the country by some purely of where he's from is pathetic .....there are those who don't like his personality that's acceptable, but cheering on some Yank from a place in America they couldn't point to on a map because of McGregors accent? fuk that
