@AlexBehunin More promotions are bad imo unless they figure out how to limit contacts to a fight or two. We need the best fighting the best, and there’s not room for two promotions unless fighters can go back and forth easily.

@FightOddsExpert @ERRipps91 Holy. Outside of anik these are arguably the three dumbest mma commentators.
English

@ERRipps91 I really like Jon Anik, Demetrius Johnson, and DC but DC gets carried away a lot during live shows. Outside of live shows I think he’s fantastic. Also think Chael is really good but he relies on theatrics a lot.

@WilliamDettloff @heynottheface Create high quality journalism for free -> figure out how to monetize through ads -> profit. The games changed. If you can make good content it will speak for itself.

Nate Diaz on retirement:
🗣️ “Age is a diagnosis that some p*ssy gave… then everybody just starts retiring. People are diagnosed with that sh*t. I’ll be here forever.” 😭

Pat Sabatini wasn't overly thrilled with his win over William Gomis at #UFC328:
"I'm happy to get a good win over a well-prepared performance. But I can do better. I feel it wasn't my best performance."

Luke Rockhold says he’s heard rumors that Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov could be in Khamzat Chimaev’s corner at UFC 328:
"It sounds like we might have Kadyrov in his corner, so I think he's pretty safe within his mindset. We'll see how it goes. This fight week is gonna be interesting.
Sean was saying he's gonna bring a gun. I'm not sure if you can bring a gun out there in New Jersey, but they better check it."
"Sean is not a real threat in the world of what he's dealt with and who he deals with."

@BernardoFariaJJ Buchecha should be a man and put on the white belt and start from scratch under sensi Valter Walker
English

It hurts my soul when I see people typing negative things about Buchecha and Rodolfo on their performances.
A few things to point out: they are both Gi and No-Gi World Champions (both have won ADCC). In the entire history of MMA, only two people have won Worlds, ADCC, and a UFC title (Werdum and Mackenzie Dern), which shows how extremely hard it is to succeed in all three.
Also, let’s remember that UFC rules do not help Jiu-Jitsu at all. It is three rounds of five minutes, and when you finally get a takedown, you often only have one or two minutes left to work, which is rarely enough. Then the fight restarts on the feet, which is one of the worst situations for us from Jiu-Jitsu.
So to say they are terrible in MMA or that they cannot fight, I do not agree. Maybe they are just not suited for these rules.
If it were PRIDE-style rules, with one 10-minute round followed by two 5-minute rounds, things could look different.
Lastly, we cannot forget that they both started MMA in their 30s, while today many fighters begin training MMA as kids, teenagers, or in their early 20s.
These guys are legends, and what they are doing is crazy crazy hard, and especially on their ages and circumstances considering that they spent most of their careers training to win Jiu-Jitsu tournaments.

@DevonBirdsong DeRozan is just one of the greatest scorers to play the game and I don't know why we can't just give him that credit
English

DeRozan was a consummate pro during his tenure in San Antonio, in spite of it not being his choice, so I'd love to see this.
That being said, this is yet another argument for the NBA counting/adding ABA stats.
There's no world in which we should be able to say DeRozan scored more points than Dr. J
Carson Breber@Carsobi
DeMar DeRozan only needs to average 18 PPG for another 105 games to surpass Shaq in career points and enter the all-time Top 10 I find this deeply disturbing

@Rachel__Nichols Wemby’s got a bruise on his tummy. I’m pretty sure a dude in the nhl played without a head for half a season and got it sewed on in the offseason
English

Tom, are you telling me the 65-game rule didn’t work to bribe the players into different behavior, especially when in many cases their actual health (and not just “rest”) is a factor??? THAT’s SO WEIRD. Who could possibly have seen this coming?
Tom Haberstroh@tomhaberstroh
No Wemby last night on ESPN. No Jaylen tonight on Prime. The hits keep coming

@CP3REGION @patbev21 Chris Paul might be the most overrated player in all of sports. The jock riding this guy gets is insane. This list is spot on and you can probably kick him down further.
English

Arrest this man immediately.
