Oliveira is a bad, bad man. That's the type of performance to make Khabib interested. Dude isn't a PPV draw, but from a competitive standpoint, that might be fun.

Perhaps UFC has a different deal than other sports. But generally, whereabouts testing is awfully straightforward. You set one hour of the day to be available for testing. You tell them where they can find you during that one hour. If you make a change, you can make a quick change on the app...

UFC clearly doesn't have the interests of the fighters as their top priority. Can you imagine if Roger Gooddell decided Tom Brady was boring to watch, held press conferences to rip the guy's arm strength, and had the power to decide he's worth a contract for $5 million a year while never...

TT was always frustrating to watch in the postseason. Dude demands a massive contract but he gets punked by guys making a third of his salary. Does he help Boston against the top bigs in the East? Tristan is a liability against Giannis, Embiid, and even Myers Leonard. He makes far too much...

$15/hour worker is making $30,000 per year salary. If you're only offering $6,000 per year benefits package, that may not be competitive. What do your competitors offer for those same employees?

What is the market value benefits package for $15/hour full time workers in your field in your area? It's completely possible you pay your minimum wage workers more in benefits than in wages. Such is the cost of doing business.

As a fan of basketball, it's great to see the number of teams making deals in efforts to win a championship. Also OKC is officially the farm system for rest of the NBA. Can they go back to Seattle yet?

TMZ is trash. Fertita was a known Trump guy. The Houston team was put together by Morey and Dantoni. Suddenly they're both gone. What sort of future do these players see for the organization as their championship windows and athletic prime are closing? Rockets have no cap space, no mastermind...

Drue is a better player than PG. They're going all-in to keep Giannis. Small market team doing everything it can to keep their once-in-a-generation championship window open.

This is why all those stats are unofficial. One person's opinion of a takedown attempt or significant strike is not a metric for judging in this sport.

Khabib's manager and Khabib are happy to play games to spite Conor. Dana has gone on about no interim belt, etc. Feels like something has to give here. Maybe Conor wants back in so bad he doesn't want any extra negotiations holding back getting him back into the fight game. Happy to see this...

Conor cutting to 155 without a belt on the line?

LeBron doesn't lose against even this Heat team at full strength. They're the equivalent of the old Mavs team he lost against. Miami is talented, well coached, and on a hot streak. But it's hard to ride that in a seven game series. They can absolutely be proud of their season and this great...

That's what Bones did in his prime. Stylebender is such an incredible fighter, he's paving his way for the goat discussion.

Costa looks like he is waiting to rip the guy's head off.

Fantastic job by the ref. Not Dom's night, but he'll be back soon.

What's just as absurd is what OKC got for shipping off Westbrook to Houston. CP3 might've been the best player on the court during their first-round playoff series. It certainly wasn't Russ. Sam Presti has amassed so many draft picks he won't be able to keep all that young talent. Perhaps...

Will be interesting to see if PG13 and Kawhi's performances here are swept under the rug because bubble nonsense. They faced a team with no premier defenders and two all-world players completely failed to produce. This Clippers team was built to beat LeBron & Company. But wow, this Denver team...

Spo is fantastic and Pat Riley deserves plenty of credit, too. Identified and fostered the talent of a guy from the film room, quieted the Musketeers as they called for his own return to the bench, and kept finding talent to keep the party alive in South Beach.

Can UFC do this on Fight Island with both fighters agreeing to waive drug testing? Brock gets to fight sooner and can take whatever he wants. JJ avoids the pulsing PR nightmare again. UFC doesn't have to worry about a sanctioning body (no one cares on the island right?) and Dana gets paid.

It's in pre-alpha. If you donate, you can see it. Closed beta announced for spring 2017.

JJ doesn't need to add bulk, but he might come out of it looking somewhat like a Francis Ngannou type and be mean as hell. Looking forward to Stylebender's defense. His rise was so much fun to witness.

Idk these guys take an incredible amount of eye gouges and largely turn out ok. I'd bet on no long term damage, but it wouldn't be the craziest thing ever it's done for life, however unlikely.

49-46 by the judges is justice. He controlled the vast majority of the fight and was in trouble only once. Great game plan by the champ. If he was affected by quarantine and his day job, he made up for it in execution.

Lots of respect by Stipe tonight. Especially after that eye poke, we didn't see a big killer instinct blood in the water feel. He landed some big combinations, but both fighters let it go. DC landed his shots, but I can think of only one moment where the champ was dazed.

I think this is 3-1 Stipe, but very close, could be 2-2 and one crazy judge could have this 4-0 for the champ. Stipe has absorbed those blows well.

DC asking if he dropped, did he drop. Saved by the bell. Likely tied 19-19.

Stipe is one of the rare fighters who fights at his natural weight. Why experiment putting on 20-40 pounds for one fight when you're the champ and in the conversation for best heavyweight ever? Unlike a lot of the dudes at heavy, Stipe isn't a natural fattie. Who knows how his body would...

Who wants an avatar bet? My wager is for my heart, paramedic everyman Miocic. When DC loses, this is your new avatar. Tag amod, etc.

I don't know why you'd think that. VR has been paying industry veterans for 7+ years. Their team has grown from a dozen at the start to 60 just a year later and now they have over 100 proven devs on their team woking hard to push out the best game since WoW.

UFC making sure they pay their "contractors" less than 10% of company revenue.

Where the joppa simps at? Dude has wasted away millions of dollars. Keeps putting his own work in the literal trash bin because he got another handout. Best MMO director ever. Say what you will about Ion, but he at least ships shit ensuring ROI for his corporate overlords.

They're still writing basic design documents, yes. You see this way they could show it off as a "reveal" and siphon more money from diehad fans who love this decision.

To be fair, Usman is active generally and there was never a time in this fight I thought they're just hugging it out waiting for the ref. I posted about wrestlefuckers atop the rankings a year or two ago. The current ruleset favors grappling over striking. BJJ alone hasn't been too effective...

Wrestlefuckers are bad for the sport. No one wants to pay to watch what Usman is selling. Jorge, in the few moments he wasn't being controlled, gave us more entertainment in Usman offered in the full 25 minutes.

Bisping shit announcer for this fight.

Jorge was allegedly flying in wrestlers and was sparring with Porier his entire camp.

No. Rounds are scored individually. It's like boxing. Each round is scored 100% independently.

Hard to argue for a third immediate go when one guy is 2-0. Not sure Max lost that one, but Volkanovski only needed 2 people in the world to think he won that third round. He fought well, but he was fortunate, too.

I love Max tonight. He's got the quarantine cut coming in. He also looks as good as ever. Volkanovski deserves TBE title in this division if he comes back to win this one.
