Quote HistoryQuoted:
I still can't wrap my head around why Cormier gets shit on. Jon Jones narrowly escaped killing a woman and a fetus and then flees the scene only to turn into some hero while Comier gets booed. Then Jones fails a drug test and is pulled from the card during fights week. Cormier still booed. He fights Silva and he gets booed. Change of opponent/no title fight and 500,000 disappears. Dude just can't win. By all accounts he's a pretty down to earth, humble guy. The mob is fickle. |

Cain looked good.
Jose looked great. Anderson looked old. The Brock fight didn't do anything for me. The girl who fought Meisha looked amaze. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Probably has something to do with my man crush, JBJ. * I didn't think DC's performance was boo worthy though. Even guys who get punched in the face for a living knew he was going to try and wrastle. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
Agreed but at the risk of stinking like a hippy, they're all about the money these days. It's a business and big money is the goal but every god damned little thing is sponsored now. More commercials and plugs than fight time gets a bit annoying. I think Jones was never going to fight in 200. IMO the test announcement was cover-up. I doubted he'd fight in the UFC again after his last set of charges. Too many "thuggery" accusations, the UFC is trying to maintain an image free of NFL player type antics after its initial bloody/savagery critiques. Quote HistoryQuoted:

I saw that. That guy who got his jaw broke is weird. He had one groin kick, hard to tell if the kick right before the KO was low as well. Tough loss for Ben also. Dude is tough as nails and Smolka is very underrated. |

Mighty Mouse is just that, a mouse. He's undefeated - and dominant - at 125, but at 135 he was mortal. It might be different if Cruz wasn't at 135 again. But right now... we've seen that show. There are guys who can fight up. There aren't many, but there are guys. Most guys, though... they just can't be as strong as the bigger man. Because he's bigger. And that's especially true at the lighter weight classes. At least at the heavier classes people have 1-punch knockout power. Nobody has that at the lighter classes; they just aren't strong enough. They can't be... not enough room for muscle. Knockouts become a culmination of punches, not one. As fast as Mighty Mouse is... he's mortal at 135; he's damn-near invincible at 125. I'd advise him against a return to 135 unless either he can't make weight (unlikely) or he starts to slow down and becomes mortal anyway (a ways off). |

I'd advise him against a return to 135 unless either he can't make weight (unlikely) or he starts to slow down and becomes mortal anyway (a ways off). If he's concerned about brain health - Agree If he's chasing the title defense record - Agree If he's looking to make the most money during his very short window of opportunity - Disagree People fight for all sorts of reasons but if you're in the biggest MMA promotion in the world, you can't say that money and long term success after your fighting career doesn't at least play a part in your decision making. He claims his goal now it to chase the title defense record. The only time he's ever talked about superfights in fighting Cruz for 2 million. He doesn't talk business a whole lot and it's hard to bitch about the hand that feeds you, but he seems content to just keep doing his thing at 125. My advice would be to ask the UFC to book him against big names. Cruz doesn't have KO power but a superfight would at least draw more viewers than DJ's current title fights. A fight against somebody like Faber would draw more view. I would also BEG to be put as the co-main of some very big shows so my PPV points actually meant something. We don't know the threshold, but it seems like if a PPV doesn't hit a certain number of buys, the PPV points don't kick in. I don't think DJ's ever been in more than one PPV card that did over 400-500k buys. That's a very big disparity compared to Conor or Ronda card that are doing close to or over 1 million buys. Assume he's negotiated for $2/ppv buy. Being on a big card could mean an extra $1,000,000 in pay. That's a lot of money left on the table. If i'm going to make a living getting punched in the god damn face, you better be paying me. |
