I think that is the primary reason. There is no shortage of athletic guys that would be in the heavyweight division. Those kids can get NIL deals nowadays and I would assume the collegiate wrestling programs aren't paying athletes like Football, Basketball, and Baseball programs are.

Agreed, they are struggling a bit with the heavies. That's the case pretty much everywhere it seems. The UFC has a guy that won the contender series and went on to win his UFC debut against Justin Tafa that looks like a toss-up. He's fighting a main event fight against Derrick Lewis on July 12...

Roundtree Jr looked good today. And this: Dana White: Jon Jones officially retired, Tom Aspinall promoted to undisputed UFC heavyweight champion

Always a little surprised when I see Holland get a sub. https://www.mmafighting.com/2025/6/7/24445168/retired-ufc-veteran-ben-askren-hospitalized-severe-pneumonia-unable-respond-to-anything-this-time

I chose to remain unreasonably optimistic for Jones in September.

Whipped up a little something for one of my songs called Caveman:

Nickal takes his first L after getting beat up on the feet and finished with a knee to the liver. De Ridder looked great and has been on a tear recently. Sandhagen coming off a loss and asking for a title shot is a no. Would be better fight with Patchy Mix if he could get released from PFL and...

I don't think he should have been that much of a favorite against Paul Craig but then I forget he's 37 and it's not 2020.

Watch out now!

I'd argue if Stipe was active during this time he would have had to have faced the whose who of the division. Outside of the Ngannou KO loss (they are 1-1), he lost to DC 6 years ago and lost to JDS 10 years ago. He's 42 but he's a dog and he's a problem for anyone in the top 5. I've been...

I'm a little disappointed Bisping isn't commentating as we will not hear him pronounce Martin Buday's name several times.

a separate one I was using is also down

Fury got them turtleneck trunks on tonight

I came here to whisper "Max Holloway".

Surprised the card tonight is a PPV. I know a lot of folks on the card but it's not very appealing.

So fun to watch Jiri. I've enjoyed the card so far.

I may have overlooked but didn't see this posted. That ain't just booze he's coming down from.

I was semi-aware there was a UFC card this past weekend and didn't see anything else leading up to it from Friday on. What are they doing over there?

Find this hard to believe, but we'll see... https://x.com/ThePunchReport_/status/1751066452801511428?s=20 The Punch Report @ThePunchReport_ BREAKING: According to sources, UFC 300 will feature a major announcement from Dana White about changes to the men's weight divisions. New weight...

298 and 299 look like PPVs to me but 297 certainly does not.

Me and my wife sat right behind the DJ at a UFC: Nashville event and I don't recall any crowd enhancement being used by that particular DJ. My guess is the UFC has a live audio engineer who also does the censorship in the post-fight interviews, etc.

This was the van they were in.

Orc Highway!

A Patrolling Gnoll in Blackburrow.

That's a long layoff for someone who really hasn't been injured before. He'll definitely have his hands full with Sergei, Tom, or Stipe when he returns.

I present Karg Icebear searching for Megan O'Reilly (Dalle-3). I'll be back once I recover from this.

I've not personally used any of the animation AI tools but it's out there:

Prelims start in about 1 min.

Masvidal's Bareknuckle MMA event headlined by Werdum and JDS started about 45 mins ago.

TUF 31 starts tonight at 10 pm est on ESPN

I think we will see if Jailton Almeida can also emerge as a challenger after Rozenstruik in 3 weeks. Pavlovich was starting to look a bit tired last night after not doing a whole lot. No one at heavyweight is prepared to handle Jon's wrestling.

I just picked up Jurassic World Evolution 2 for 75% off at $14.99 on Steam.

Would love to see Francis come back in the UFC but he will never be anything more than a KO artist. Too late in the game now I believe. If he doesn't make it back I wouldn't care too much. If Jon Jones uses his wrestling at HW it's over for everybody. No one in the MMA can out-wrestle him at HW...

Man, Rockhold was still throwing some heat despite being completely gassed. He's always been very dangerous with the speed and power he throws behind his strikes. I agree something had to have happened early on. It could have just been not being able to breathe out of his nose and it threw him...

I got this for Christmas and really the only game I've played is the Creed boxing demo. It was actually a lot of fun. I saw an EverQuest VR posted on here a while back (not this thread) but I think that was a guy just showing off the world essentially and it isn't available as far as I know...

I did want to add that I don't think Pena is going to have as good of a performance in the inevitable rematch. She should expect the best of the best from Amanda in a rematch. I can see Ronda falling because her only real skill-set was the Judo and submissions. Nunes however is an all-around...

Can't say that I didn't see the card going the way that it did last night. I was very surprised by the Pena upset though and also thought Cruz would lose. Pena almost made it look like it was a work. Cruz must've been pissed by the DC thing or something - he turned it on in round two and...

Yep that was me and they were terrible at the time but I guess also a little memorable due to nostalgia.
