  • Stop with the backstories

    Guys please stop yapping about whatever memories from Strikeforce back in the day. I like the fight analysis but it’s probably about 20% of the timestamp where it says the top.

    Less than 20% of an entire episode is fight analysis

  • Stick to what you know

    The Social Security administration is not sending checks to dead people. That pathetic piece of misinformation is just another one of Elon’s adolescent computer non-whizzes misinterpreting the facts. Before shooting from the hip next time, how about getting your facts straight- or, better still,how about keeping your uninformed mouths shut. We don’t tune into listen to your juvenile political rants. Stick to what you know—MMA.
