Werdum had 10 months shaved off his 2 year ban via the snitching rule and is eligible to fight April 1 I really hate this aspect of the system. Two dudes can get caught with the exact same steroid but if one happens to have a teammate juicing and snitches, he gets a lighter punishment.

Adesanya vs. Romero set for 248. 248 looking like a good card Won’t have Whittaker though, he’s out of the Cannonier fight for undisclosed reasons. Also, the long discussed Woodley-Edwards London fight looks to be officially official.

That’s one aspect I don’t like, the other aspect is it’s not like we can demand USADA to reveal what info Werdum gave them so it’s one of their easier ways to just completely make up the rules as they go along

I'm pissed that Cormier missed all the coolest fights in his career: Fedor, Lesnar, Velasquez, Dos Santos, Ngannou... those all would have been fun, he instead battled thousand times against the same dudes. Any new news when the trilogy fight will happen? Not sure if I still want to root for cool daddy DC (he's retiring after all) or Miosic turn on the badassery status a lil' more and destroy him to start full blown wars against the gatekeepers to resurrect heavyweight division. As Jon Jones will never do it, can't blame him though... I hope there will be a fighting champion once again one day, pretty much any worthwhile division is stuck in traffic for one reason or another, which ain't stopping any time soon. I've a bad feeling Khabib is one another staller after he gets even more offers in his life, after he destroys madman Ferguson.

Fedor in Pride absolutely, but not UFC. Stipe is the closest thing. There have been times where it looked promising like Cain after dethroning Lesnar, or CroCop when he first came to the UFC. However, those failed pretty spectacularly with Cain being out of action for about 29 months during his title reign and CroCop being a shell of his former self that never sniffed the title.

Yea, Brock was basically the Dream they wanted in that type of guy because he didn't care who the f*** he fought as seen by fighting Mir his first fight. But once he won the title and got sick that went down the drain. Then Cain was supposed to be "The Guy" and he ends up injured and losing a big fight on national TV to JDS Stipe is their closest guy but you can tell Dana doesn't want him as his top dog

I just love that there is no match-up for Jones that means anything. His career is going to fizzle out, regardless of how good he is, with fights that no one gives a damn about. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. He needs to go HW or shut the hell up because he's like how Mighty Mouse was, were he has a fight and no one really cares and I loved Mighty Mouse Jones shouldn't have been given 4th or 5th chances anyway, but Dana would bend over and twist himself in a pretzel to cover Jones f*** ups

Lmao my head hurt reading that 1 - You're not a draw Colby. World title or nothing is going to get you nothing 2- You said you didn't break your jaw. Yet, you told your corner you broke you think you broke your jaw and somehow Usman corner got word of this and it helped him. THAT'S CAP!!! 3 - Bitching about the ref 4 - 50 don't give no f***s about you boy 5 - You lost. You didn't get cheated, you lost. Man up. He's on Cornette levels of this isn't a gimmick, this is who you are

Fake Coby complaining...... who would've thought. The thing too is his whole schtick had a shelf life, that being right up till he lost decisively. That happened. Sure the fight was close right up until it wasn't. There wasn't any controversy really. It was a good stoppage cuz he was done. That character/amped up version of himself was all he had to offer despite being a good fighter and well that's done now. No one cares. You don't even have the prospect of "I hope someone shuts him up" now cuz someone did.

Also if his jaw wasn't broken, why did he sprint out of the cage? If it was broken, getting medical treatment immediately is understandable, otherwise..

You don't even have the prospect of "I hope someone shuts him up" now cuz someone did. I can't remember if all 3 judges had scored the fight for Usman going into the 5th or if it was just 2, but even if Colby survived the final round, he would have lost anyway on the cards. He was on the mat getting his face pounded. He wasn't still standing, but on wobbly legs. The funniest thing to me is that if he'd stood there like a real martial artist and sportsman and showed a little respect, he'd have legitimately won fans that night. The guy was in the fight and kept fighting despite a broken jaw. I hate the guy, but he deserved respect for that. Then he right away took any goodwill and flushed it. I'm also amazed at how much he's deluded himself into believing he's a megastar. There is less than zero proof of that.
