Dana thought Condit was the new champ

How can you not like that guy.

Third round was the decider it seems, two judges scored 3 for Lawler, only one scored it for Condit, 1/4 Condit, 2/5 Lawler on all scorecards.

I've always felt that a close third round almost always goes to the champion. It seems to be the round the judges stick in their back pocket in the event of an even fight so they can be sure the champ keeps the belt

And here I thought SNL couldn't get any worse. I was wrong.

UFC star Ronda Rousey will host 'Saturday Night Live' on Jan. 23

3rd was close enough that judges just handed it to the champ, plain and simple. Just looking at the raw punchstats won't work, Robbie landed the bigger punches and Carlos was using crazy volume. I'm pretty sure 99% of us(fans) gave Carlos the 3rd, but I can just see how the judges gave it to Robbie. I called the result pretty much spot on(as I'm sure many of you did). In the sense that I said "I think Carlos won 1/3/4, but I bet a couple of the judges gave 3 to Robbie and he wins it." I can't find it in me to get too upset, this is how title fights have worked forever.

Now Tumenov getting the W over Larkin, that felt pretty awful. The judges just didn't give a single fuck about47savage leg kicks Larkin landed.

3rd question/answer got me in.

Q: What do you think about the DOW dropping 276 points off the back of fears about the structural issues behind the Chinese economy?

A: not thrilled, i have some alibaba stock


edit: If you want another surprisingly funny and genuine one check out50 Cent's AMA.Anyone who's seen some of his tweets already knew he was a funny fucker, but it was a fun one. Off topic I know, but some of Kimbo's answers reminded me of it.

Clay Guida lookin'good

Also Cerrone got a huge ass fine for his shorts I guess, stupid fucking reebok deal.

Apparently it is tradition for him to sew on a Muay Thai patch onto his shorts, which he continued to do and does not regret. Said he would do it again 10000%.

It was a thing his grandmother did for him. So yeah fuck the UFC for not backing down even for that sort of thing.

Dos Anjos/McGregor is a tough one to predict. We really didn't see much of what McGregor can do against someone like Aldo (aside from knock him the fuck out in a few seconds) and Dos Anjos is a savage. Prior to Aldo, we at least got a sense of his abilities against progressively stiffer competition. Either way, looking forward to it

I would love to see that McGregor vs Floyd bout just to show that just because you are good in MMA that has no crossover into the sport of Boxing.

Even McGregor knows he has no shot of even competing in that boxing match stating he wants 80% of everything, lol.

He said they should fight, not box.

Nah, he implied that it would be a boxing match commenting that his last boxing match was underwhelming.

McGregor would be lucky to last a round against him before he DQ'ed himself.
