I've been covering this sport in some capacity since 2015. As much as I love MMA in a lot of ways, the thrill is gone. But last night it came back. My thoughts on
#UFC300
I asked Nate Diaz if fatherhood has changed his approach to fighting. He says he's been a father for years. He fathered all these motherfuckers
#UFC241
Dana White rejects Islam Makhachev's pound-for-pound title after
#UFC302
.
"Jon Jones is the best ever. ... Throw Jon Jones in a room with anybody, Jon Jones walks out of the room."
Fun fact: Biles has over 30 medals in 2 Olympic games and dominated in between. Cejudo won the gold in 2008 and retired when he failed to make the team in 2012
Keep sitting behind a computer and talk, martial arts are a way of life that soy boy can't understand. We don't want you clowns to "help" us.
You guys are fake and make money of being fake.
Can't fake being a real UFC fighter.
Kamaru Usman and Henry Cejudo have a heated debate in relation to the “First African Champ” narrative 😬
Usman: “So you’re disagreeing that the color of your skin does not play an impact on the quality of life?”
Cejudo: “Not in America man.”

So should you die because your first child was out of wedlock? The bible also warns against loving violence but you literally did violence for a living. Top tier hypocritical bozo logic
It is not hateful to say that homosexuality, pedophilia, or fornication is disgusting. It’s not loving to be silent when the culture praises things that lead people to Hell (1Cor 6:9-11). It’s not hateful, but loving to protect children from this world’s evil demented propaganda
Due to forces beyond the control of my boss at Sherdog, I'm a free agent for the moment. Who wants the sexiest MMA media guy this side of Okamoto (maybe Jose too?) Come get this work
Every UFC broadcast picks 1 commercial to run into the ground. If I have to see LL Cool J tell Biz Markie he can't hear him one more time, I'm going to side kick my TV

In the span of a year, MMA media has faced backlash for speaking about the following issues: domestic violence, sexual assault, and concerns about a global pandemic. So...who are really the bad guys in this scenario?
At 4:26 this morning, my beautiful baby girl decided it was time to come out and play. After a superhuman effort from my wife, Alaia Nuri Walker arrived healthy and happy
So after the UFC swims its way Scrooge McDuck style thru all the coin it made last night, expect the Tyron Woodley and Colby Covington promo to tap into all the best this country has to offer right now
#UFC229
Since the UFC is redesigning the belt, it all makes sense now. All these interims, etc were to clear whatever inventory was leftover. Gotta start fresh
That press conference was an embarrassment to MMA media. With a few exceptions, it was a collision of fanboys and goofballs. Unfortunately that seems to be a more common occurrence these days
#UFC264
Beyond the actual nature of the trash talk, the biggest difference between Colby and Chael is that when Chael ate his words he did so with his head held high and took it. Colby turned into a track star
Donald Cerrone reveals he didn’t get a “Red Panty Night” by fighting Conor McGregor
“Everyone’s like ‘red panty night, you got paid’, no I didn’t. I got paid what I always got paid.”

I'm willing to extend Cejudo the benefit of the doubt and say he probably didn't realize how offensive that is. Apologize and move on. The responses to people rightfully having an issue prove once again that MMA fans are a dumpster fire of bigots and bitches
Triple C doesn’t even pay attention to Aljamima Sterling Silver
@funkmastermma
💁🏿♀️secondly, Triple C wants to fight you Petr, but your English needs to get Betr, you ugly communist potato 🥔 And last but not least, my tune-up fight, the cabbage patch head Jose Waldo.
@danawhite
This feels like a particularly shitty time to be a fight fan. So much bad news and so many terrible people emerging from it. This is one of the rare times I've questioned my desire to participate in this
USADA can show up to your child's birth and test you - Faber
You can unknowingly fight a juiced opponent while the company covers it up - Jones
You can be forced into the wrong weight class - Lineker
Ok
It's time for Rory to stop being the Ned Flanders type of Christian and become the angry fundamentalist yelling outside the abortion clinic type of Christian
#Bellator232
So now that TJ has admitted the struggle of making 125 despite him saying how easy it would be, can we let go of the false narrative that DJ was ducking him by demanding he take a flyweight bout before fighting him for the belt?
Conor could be completely innocent. We don't know. But if you're devotion to seeing a fight outweighs your concern for victims of sex crimes, you're a piece of trash. If asking questions about the situation bothers you, I'd suggest you refer to the previous sentence
Thank you
@benshapiro
for calling these scumbags out on there identity politics. Shit is a joke it's basically a crime to be a white man with a opinion in today's society
Know what privilege is?
Jumping on twitter and crying about some fighter using a word, when your country is burning, ppl are dying, losing their homes & millions of wild animals are left dead.
So don’t be that guy, count your blessings and stfu
I've been covering MMA for nearly 20 years and Max Holloway's KO of Justin Gaethje tonight at UFC 300 right away ranks as one of my all-time top moments.
Here's me and
@othellobt
reacting in real time to the unbelievable scenes:
The worst is yet to come. Sometime in the near future, Dana will slander Woodley at a press conference and joke about him losing to a YouTuber. That's the exact moment that I'm going to break
@JackSlackMMA
If people would stop illegal streaming ths PPVs this wouldnt be a problem. the money comes in from sponsors, tickets, ppv buys, etc. He has events almost every weekend, how is he supposed to pay these guys when one of the main sources of income is being taken away.
If Jacare disclosed he had contact with an infected relative and was immediately removed from the card before traveling to the event site, then it would show how effective the UFC's safety protocols were...that's what happened right?
#UFC249
The UFC's stubborn refusal to acknowledge a worldwide epidemic while other sports leagues and festivals are falling in line shows their commitment to money over anything else
Somebody please follow up Dana's healthcare statement by reminding him that major sports leagues like the NFL and NBA give health benefits to their athletes after retirement
Official water, official sports drink, official energy drink, official beer, official whiskey, official vodka, official rum...what are we missing? Official juice? Official green tea? Official chamomile tea? Official milk? Official dairy free alternative milk?
