  • 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.

Q: What advice would you give to upcoming or amateur fighters?
When you think you're in good enough shape, run more laps, do more road work, because the better shape you're in, the better your brain processes techniques.

I broke my ankle in two places and have a plate there on my left ankle with nine screws; I can't really kick anymore on that leg.
