looks like that sports tape that was all the rage for awhile.

only recall one guy being known for have a swastika on his arm, had to fight with a rash guard shirt.
couple had theirs blacked out. always wondered is they could be covered in that spray on stuff like boxers used for ads.

This isn't MMA related, but it relates to the really stupid shit announcers say.

RE: the announcer here talking about what a nice guy the Brazilian is. I about fell out of my chair at 3:52.

ppl say MMA w/ jui jitsu is gay, men on the bottom wrapping their legs around another guy in missionary. Or you can watch two meatheads wrap their legs around a nightstand for stability and leaning all the way down for leverage, while 3 bills are on the table.

Larrat is pretty damn entertaining and makes armwrestling worth watching whenever he's involved.

really should just call it OSP choke at this point.


There's a fair case for that. It's really interesting how he uses his arm outside the choke to trap his opponent's hand so they can't release the guillotine and escape.

also no mark hunt, only time he fights is in aussieland, is he let go? why? (besides the obvious lawsuit)

would love to see how whittaker does now with TWO hands.

don't forget if whittaker didn't have super human reflexes he'd be decapitated

he left ufc in dec last year. don't know if the lawsuit is over or not, almost all of it was dismissed earlier this year.

there was a rumor about him going to bare knuckle but don't think that panned out.

I think Adesanya wins by TKO.

Didnt Whittaker get stopped by Stephen Thompson?

not re-watched it, but remember thinking Yoel won that last fight. Like to see Whittaker win as Adesanya is annoying, they are already talking about super fight with him and J Jones.

UFC star Conor McGregor will appear in a Dublin court next week to face an assault charge, Independent.ie can reveal.

Detectives have served a summons on the 31-year-old fighter to appear before a judge next Friday morning.
McGregor, who is originally from Dublin but living in Kildare, is now expected to appear before Dublin District Court on October 11.
The DPP had directed earlier this year that he should be prosecuted over the alleged assault and a summons has formally been served on him by gardai for the court case.
He faces a single assault charge under Section Two of the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act over the incident on April 6 last at the Marble Arch pub in Drimnagh.
It carries a maximum prison term of six months upon summary conviction, a fine of €1,500, or both
.

i doubt he will get nothing more that few hours of talking to kids or something. but that guy he hit will probably get a nice payday.
