The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- Cannonier, Imavov, Reyes, Rosas on NOW

So dana didn't respond to any of the points that were tweeted. I don't like either of them but majority of fighters will never speak out to improve things for themselves.
 
Dana also said he can start his own promotion. That’s a fair retort. Expecting Dana to not be a cut throat business man isn’t going to happen. The fighters who lay it down in the cage got to take that energy out of it when negotiating. Competition or a major movement are the only thing that will change the status quo.

Francis is like the face of fighter pay right now.
 


Just saw GSP’s debut for the first time. My man was yolked back then. His core strength of takedowns with GnP were on display back then. Along the way, he developed that killer jab and used top sports medicine to forge a GOAT eligible career.

Not sure if ya have kept up with the commentary criticism as of late especially with Joe Rogan. It’s highlighted here. He “favors” Parisyan because of his judo/grappling. Creating a narrative of this grappling expert who has GSP in control when in fact George has complete top control through most of the rounds and picking at him with light jabs to the body and vicious elbows to his face. JRE used to be close friends with Eddie Bravo and has a BJJ black belt. He favors grapplers. But there are just times when he has it wrong like when Khabib fought Al. He made it seem like Al was winning on his feet when he wasn’t. Khabib was comfortable.

Also shout out to Steve Mizagata (sp) lol

Karo was no joke back then either
 
Paul pushing all of dana's buttons :lol:
fighters would look foolish if they were to defend dana/ufc with how much they are getting screwed over

Lol tell that to Daniel Cormier and Chael Sonnen... and the tens of millions theyve made off being loyal to a fault. DCs made like 20M++ after age 35 in combat sports and commentating. Lulz

You can be a freedom fighter but being a lap dog pays much better.
 
Dustin/Nate at 271? Sounds like it's close to being made. 272 doesn't have a headliner yet so could also seem them putting this fight there.

 
Cant wait for Francis vs Gane
Same. Their lil soft spoken beef has been good. I like the storyline there. Gane's coach aint afraid to talk **** on Francis lol and Francis be clapping back in his lowkey tones

Meanwhile Gane just staying quiet for the most part

I can't wait til that fight week I feel like it's gonna be tense
 
Saw that interview and Dustin saying that this fight would be super short notice, less than 6 weeks to prepare. So I'm guessing 5 round co main for the Izzy/Rob card.

But they're still waiting on Nate's side to agree then they'll have the contracts out.
