@JLuizza @McGregorRousey2 This doesn't happen. People just love to pretend it does.

@McGregorRousey2 I mean he’s lowkey right though having to “clearly beat the champ” has been a thing that has been talked about for as long as I can remember in the ufc that’s like one of the main arguments people use for Jones vs Reyes
English
Example #785 of when somebody says “you think you know more than a professional fighter?”
Dovy🔌@DovySimuMMA
🤔Arman Tsarukyan says that Khamzat should’ve won vs Sean Strickland because he was champion and Sean was the contender “it was a tight fight. Champions get an advantage, the contender gotta WIN to take it”
English
@jazzlovesmma @ThisIsNotDSP Ngl I would still pick Ronda against Perez.
English
@ThisIsNotDSP I forgot the weightclass, lets say competent for the divisions standards like an Ailin Perez or Joselyn Edwards
English
Shes lucky shes fighting Gina Caramo because literally any competent fighter with talent would chin her in a round

Ronda Rousey hitting pads‼️🥊

@ATokkers5 Actually thought the first fight was pretty easy to score for Castaño
English
@austen_enjoyer Eh, boring fight that is only talked about because Valentina fans are extremely vocal. One was afraid of gassing, the other was waiting for it to happen.
English
Just how good is Shevchenko that she beat prime touch of death Nunes

Just randomly remembered this and now I have to share it
English
@NeroCrystallis @BlazeBinges I would even say that trying so hard to make your favorite the protagonist goes against the message of the show, but whatever.
English
Omi is the false protagonist. Also, Omi did this before. He'll celebrate his friends achievement an then dunk on them the next episode. He's done this to Raimundo many times, Omi always reverts to being a douche. This scene is nothing new for him tbh. It's always been Raimundo who's the true protagonist.
English
Xiaolin Showdown ended 20 years ago today on Kids' WB.
English
@NeroCrystallis @BlazeBinges Omi is still the protagonist though. Being able to look past your own wishes and be happy for your friends achievements is the true message of the show.
English
@BlazeBinges Raimundo really is the true protagonist of Xiaolin Showdown. He had the best development and character arcs, this story is really about his tale. I'm so happy it's him who became leader.
English
@DogJakarta1890 @lucas_bourdon When I contested your first statement, your reply based itself in two incorrect results. It's hard to argue when your claim surges from wrong beliefs.
English
@Raidroning @lucas_bourdon What are you trying to argue about? Lay it out.
English
One of them had an actual title reign, also regained the belt, was watchable and did it after having a high level career in another combat sport. Let's be serious.
Turnout@Ajsrisen
It’s time to have this conversation. Who will have the better career when it s all said and done?
English
@RyanAWagMMA That's me watching Gassiev vs Usyk. Super high level but entered a rhythm quite early and at some point I started feeling silly for watching it.
English
People often ask me why I don't write more about boxing and honestly it's mostly because I don't have the patience to sit through a bunch of 20 rounds fights or whatever
By round 7 I'm like okay okay I get the gist of it
English
@DogJakarta1890 @lucas_bourdon My dude, get your facts straight before trying to argue about anything.
English
@Raidroning @lucas_bourdon Just sounds like a cope lad, on your part.
English
@SirPunchalot69 So you are counting Yaotzin Meza as world level in MMA, but not Filip Verlinden or Bogdan Stoica?
At this point we have to agree to disagree. Keep in mind that Israel was widely regarded as a top 5 middleweight even before he challenged for the title.
That's a good career.
English
@Raidroning But Arnold isn’t 2-2 at world level
He is 11-3 at world level
English
The 2 biggest conceptions about Adesanya:
1. He had a good kickboxing career, he didn’t he was 2-2 at world level.
2. Was remotely watchable
You can’t revise what we all had to endure when that lanky streak of piss was champ, he was about as exciting as bowel cancer
Lucas Bourdon@lucas_bourdon

English
@SirPunchalot69 I believe being able to give the world champion a hard fight is already a very good landmark.
Also, so what if he was 2-2? If, let's say, Arnold Allen switched sports, I would still claim he had a good MMA career despite the fact he was 2-3 against top 10 ranked opponents.
English
@Raidroning No it isn’t he was 2-2 at world level
So what you’re saying in a roundabout way is he lost ?
English
@DogJakarta1890 @lucas_bourdon You not only ignored the passage of time, but also missed the result of 2 out for 4 fights in your comment.
Impressive.
English
@Raidroning @lucas_bourdon Imavov got beat by Allen, Imavov beat Iz. Allen actually beat Stickland around 2020. It's not absurd to say Iz would struggle. Pyfer just beat Iz.
English
@DogJakarta1890 @lucas_bourdon "could you see Iz beating Allen"
You can't be serious
English
Didn't Sean regain the belt? Iz clearly had a better reign. But could you see Iz beating Khamzat? Imavov, Allen? Let's also remember Sean absolutely schooled him, it wasn't even close. Both great fighters, Israel has more Elite wins but Strickland is engaging in a more wrestling heavy competitive lineup that Israel in any era couldn't survive.
English
@TypewritingDA @ThisIsNotDSP Strickland to me feels like Neil Magny. Has a specifically solid game to the point you have to plan around it, but is flawed enough that good fighters should be able to take him with little issue. Except Strickland is a two times champion instead of the top 15 he should be.
English
@ThisIsNotDSP Strickland individually isn't particularly interesting despite being an obviously good fighter. It's how opponents interact with him where there's intrigue because he can genuinely ask good questions of them as a trick question. Unfortunately, MW is also a division of gimmicks.
English
Think Izzy will have the more memorable career by fans, but Sean i don't think will ever hit a major slump like Izzy is in now.
Izzy's style/approach - once the athleticism slipped and it's not working. Sean's style probably works fine all the way until he's 40.

@TheStarched @PeterNick415 @Ojitos_2001 @muhammadmokaev It can be extremely random. That’s why sometimes it works on short windows of time and sometimes it doesn’t. Just to get the approval for the petition(the step before the interview) it can take four months. Fastest method still takes at least 15 days.
English
@Raidroning @PeterNick415 @Ojitos_2001 @muhammadmokaev None taken. You are right. I have not. However how long of lead time do they need? Isnt there long term solutions for it.
English
Hi guys , visa was not refused , I still can enter to the US
But to fight in the states you need to have P1 visa
I was waiting on MVP for the working visas part , not my fault , I did my camp, my weight was good , I was ready to go💪🏼
I wish Adrino Morales good luck , he is a good guy we have trained at American Top Team in the past that’s why I warned him 4 weeks prior to the event about the visa situation…
English
@TheStarched @PeterNick415 @Ojitos_2001 @muhammadmokaev No disrespect, you sound like someone who never had to deal with visa issues.
Lucky you.
English
@PeterNick415 @Raidroning @Ojitos_2001 @muhammadmokaev I am not dummy. I am highlighting if there is a will there is a way.
Now send me address and ill send you knee pads for your weirdo behavior🤡🤡🤡

@Raidroning @AidenBF56 @fenoxsky what? Taira took Moreno down and then Moreno had him controlled in a triangle for 4 minutes
English
@CombatCr @craftyboxing Fantastic. He really deserves it and I'm excited to see it.
English
@craftyboxing Kabayel apparently fighting Usyk in September
English
@FlightOFfists @AidenBF56 @fenoxsky Taira got a takedown and pretty much instantly stopped both Moreno and Perez. He couldn't do anything against Van despite being able to put him on the ground repeatedly.
English
@AidenBF56 @fenoxsky simply dont think his grappling is good enough to be labeled as an "absurd talent". might just have different definitions of those words.
