With kelvin trashing him on Twitter

I was thinking Romero cannonier

[bitter rover]

Think kelvin would knock him out unfortunately

[burnt cedar]

Would be a solid test for him

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[burnt cedar]

Yeah Robs chin sadly looks gone

[bitter rover]

Jack vs till would be a good main event for a europe card

[burnt cedar]

I’m really excited to see till at 185

If his chin holds up

[bitter rover]

Yeah

Just hope he goes up the right way

And not like Kevin Lee for example, who felt more fatigue than usual

[burnt cedar]

Yeah unlike Holloway

[bitter rover]

And rockhold

[burnt cedar]

I really think Holloway just didn’t cut the extra 10

Didn’t look bigger

[bitter rover]

Yeah he didnt

[burnt cedar]

Maybe it’s because Poirier is massive

But Max looked really under prepared

I do believe that fight was closer than people had it

[bitter rover]

Need to achieve a balance between holloway and putting on mass and rockhold gaining too much mass and getting fatigued lol

[burnt cedar]

Yeah haha

[bitter rover]

Wonder how itll go for weidman

If he wins, which i think is unlikely, then he got straight ticket to jones

[burnt cedar]

Yep

I do see Reyes finishing him tho

[bitter rover]

Yeah

Reyes boxing is good

[burnt cedar]

Yep

[bitter rover]

And he a big guy, will be hard to takedown

[burnt cedar]

Got lucky against volkan tho lol

[bitter rover]

If reyes wins, i can see the winner of corey and walker getting the titleshot instead

Corey is actually quite worthy already

[burnt cedar]

If walker does win I hope it’s not a quick fight

I think Corey is more than ready

[bitter rover]

When he beat teixera and latifi, they were both in top 5

And teiexera won like 2 or 3 fights since his loss to corey

[burnt cedar]

This would walkers 1/2 ranked win?

[bitter rover]

Old man is active as hell

[burnt cedar]

Was misha ranked

[bitter rover]

2 yeah

Yeah

Like 14 or something

Corey is a little bit chinny tho

[burnt cedar]

I read that his shoulder wasn’t healed up

[bitter rover]

Oh

[burnt cedar]

So maybe that could play into it

[bitter rover]

That would suck

All that potential lost to goofing around

[burnt cedar]

With walker you could never tell anyway lol

Yep lol

When he dragged Rountree

Guy looked invincible

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[burnt cedar]

Then after he goes and hurts himself doing the worm

[bitter rover]

That was the first fight i saw with him

[burnt cedar]

I saw the one when he almost got a dq

[bitter rover]

After rountree knocked out that kickboxing guy too, forgot his name

[burnt cedar]

For blasting a kick

[bitter rover]

Ah yeah

[burnt cedar]

Saki

[bitter rover]

Yeah

He was aiming for the body, but the opponent turned around and almost got kicked in the head i think

[burnt cedar]

There’s a clip of walker getting knocked out like 3 times in a single fight lol

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[burnt cedar]

Looked so goofy

[bitter rover]

Its hilarious

Hope he recovered well from that

[burnt cedar]

Looked pretty early in his career

[bitter rover]

These Brazilians man

[burnt cedar]

Haha

[celest zephyr]

Yeah, they are wild

[burnt cedar]

Pereira

[bitter rover]

Some of them are fucking massive, i dont understand how they cut down all that weight

Like that michel breakdancing guy

Yeah

[burnt cedar]

All them acai bowls

Gotta be something in there

[bitter rover]

Lol

Probably like cyborg, former steroids users

[burnt cedar]

Belfort

[bitter rover]

Walker got the acne too, like some stereoid users get

[burnt cedar]

Would suck if he’s on the juice

[bitter rover]

Probably not anymore

[burnt cedar]

How do you see Kattar Zabit going

[bitter rover]

He travels a lot, i think its hard to maintain the cycles then

[burnt cedar]

If Kattar can keep it standing I can see him taking it

[bitter rover]

Thats a good one imo

[burnt cedar]

I think he’s got some of the best boxing in the division

He does look very weak on the ground

[bitter rover]

Zabit doesnt seem to have the same wrestling endurance like khabib

[burnt cedar]

Yeah

Lucky for him it’s only a 3 round fight

[bitter rover]

Yeah

Man, so many new exciting fighters getting top ranked

[burnt cedar]

Yeah it’s a good time to be a fan

145 has some good match ups to end the year too

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[burnt cedar]

I think Shane Burgos is on the msg card

[bitter rover]

Im not as confident as volkanovski for winning against max though

[burnt cedar]

Man I’m so nervous for that

City kickboxing haven’t lost a fight all year

And he’s doing his camp there

[bitter rover]

Hooker did lose to barboza like 8 months ago

[burnt cedar]

Was that this year

Damn

[bitter rover]

Yeah, that gym seems amazing

[burnt cedar]

Really enjoyed the guy on the prelims

[bitter rover]

But adesanya is also a natural talent

[burnt cedar]

Riddell

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[burnt cedar]

Volk gives me a sort of Chad mendes vibe

[bitter rover]

I went back to listening to adesanya at rogans yesterday, its amazing how its still so relevant today

[burnt cedar]

I remember that one

His first fight I watched was the Tavares one

[bitter rover]

Yeah

Same

[burnt cedar]

Became a instant fan after Brunson

[bitter rover]

Adesanya said how ufc are probably waiting on booking costa vs adesanya until theyre both bigger names

And look now xD

[burnt cedar]

Haha

[bitter rover]

Adesanya also mentioned that riddel guy

[burnt cedar]

The card was quite thin but I thought it was quite enjoyable

[bitter rover]

Its a TUF finale

On a friday

Then it was costa vs hall the day after on a ufc event

[burnt cedar]

I remember that

Hall was getting hit with gun shots

Sounded edited in

[bitter rover]

Adesanya fought brunson, gastelum and whittaker since

Costa only romero

[burnt cedar]

I don’t see how Costa troubles him

Can see him getting picked apart

[bitter rover]

And silva lol

Yeah

Well costa got a chin

[burnt cedar]

The silva one was like a exhibition lol

[bitter rover]

He will have to hold out and hope for a hail mary

[burnt cedar]

Yep

[bitter rover]

Yeah, i keep forgetting about it

[burnt cedar]

Hopefully that’s booked early next year

[bitter rover]

Yeah

Costa needs a long time to lose the weight, so itll probably be announced at least 2 months before

[celest zephyr]

I see Adesanya picking Costa up with ease

[bitter rover]

Something needs to happen at the flyweight and bantam weight division too

[celest zephyr]

Unless Costa clips him in the first 1:25

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[celest zephyr]

Dana said he has a fight ready for Henry

it should happen soon

I think he is defending his flyweight title

[burnt cedar]

Benavidez first I think

[bitter rover]

Adesanya knows that though, he fought those kind of guys a lot in kickboxing i think

Yeahflyweight needs to happen

[burnt cedar]

I think Henry said he’ll be ready for March

Which is a while away lol

[bitter rover]

And make a no 1 contender at bantam weight

[burnt cedar]

Saw Edgar sterling rumours

But I thought sterling just had surgery

[bitter rover]

Ah

[burnt cedar]

Saw something about Aldo moving down which I highly doubt happening lol

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[celest zephyr]

It might happen

I just wish Aldo would retire

[burnt cedar]

Same

[celest zephyr]

He really deserves a rematch with Conor but literally nothing else is left for him in the sport

and we know Conor won't be giving him a rematch

in the next 100 years

[burnt cedar]

Sad how a lot people will only remember him for Conor loss

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[celest zephyr]

I had similar thoughts about Al on Saturday night

[bitter rover]

Conors legacy is built upon that win

[burnt cedar]

When he’s a all time great

[celest zephyr]

exactly

Credit is due to Conor

for completely breaking Aldo apart

mentally

[burnt cedar]

He did kinda bounce back after

[celest zephyr]

Yeah he had a nice streak and in my opinion

[bitter rover]

The only way conor can win me back, is to fight gaethje

[burnt cedar]

And he’s still looked ok recently

[celest zephyr]

he was winning his first fight against Max

before the tko

the 2nd fight was just brutal to watch, Max shredded him

[burnt cedar]

Yeah was hard to watch

What he did to Stephens was a thing of beauty tho

[celest zephyr]

Looking forward to the Volkanovski fight

Yeah, beautiful body shot

[bitter rover]

Yeah and he so happy, aldo

[fiery veldt]

Can we talk about tony fergurson next fight

[celest zephyr]

KHABIB

nothing else

Khabib

[bitter rover]

Ferguson vs khabib!

[burnt cedar]

In Russia

[bitter rover]

Itll happen

[celest zephyr]

we are just waiting for the announcement, if they try to give us anything else

[burnt cedar]

5 times the charm

[celest zephyr]

i will be mad

[bitter rover]

Even dana and khabib says so

[celest zephyr]

Yup, everything is set

Tony, Khabib and Dana are all on the same page (I hope)

all we need is an announcement

[bitter rover]

If it fails because of injure or sicknes, i supposed its just meant to be so

[fiery veldt]

By the way

[burnt cedar]

Haha

[fiery veldt]

tony fergurson did his own promo

[celest zephyr]

Lol yeah if it fails the 5th time

that match up is 100%

doomed

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[fiery veldt]

tony fergurson will act like El cucy

[burnt cedar]

Max stepping up again on 7 days notice and this tine he actually shows up

[fiery veldt]

el cucuy

[celest zephyr]

Tony wanted the fight in December

[bitter rover]

Khabib trips on a cable and tony rushed to hospital after bad weight cut, karma

[fiery veldt]

he will break his real character against khabib the eagle

[burnt cedar]

Khabib wouldn’t do vegas

[fiery veldt]

khabib wants russia

[celest zephyr]

Yeah, I don't blame him

[bitter rover]

Yeah itll be next year

[celest zephyr]

they gave him a 500k fine

[fiery veldt]

500K is nothing dude

and lets not forget Conor

wants a rematch

[celest zephyr]

it is, if you think about

a lot of UFC fighters

[burnt cedar]

Man loads of the roster won’t see 500k

[celest zephyr]

don't make 500k in their career lifetime

[fiery veldt]

conor did ity

[celest zephyr]

Conor is conor though

[fiery veldt]

did it with a sponsor

[burnt cedar]

There’s always couple special cases

[bitter rover]

500k is more than what champions get for defending their titles lol

[fiery veldt]

conor is the face of UFC

[celest zephyr]

Khabib is def getting loaded

[burnt cedar]

6m last fight?

[celest zephyr]

heard a report that he got like 6 mil for the Dustin fight

yeah

[fiery veldt]

Holy shiit

[celest zephyr]

no champion makes that much from their fights

[fiery veldt]

that was alote of money

[celest zephyr]

beside Jon Jones

and Conor

[bitter rover]

I like having khabib and adesanya as the new faces, both undefeated, one is the best grappler in ufc and the other one is the best striker in ufc

[fiery veldt]

I don't like jon jones play style

[celest zephyr]

@bitter rover It is perfect

[burnt cedar]

Both good guys as well

[celest zephyr]

They are both easily likable and everything

[bitter rover]

Yeah

[fiery veldt]

Israel andesanya act like a newbie in his fights

[burnt cedar]

Israel seems very grounded as well

[bitter rover]

I really dont understand why so many are hating on both of them

[fiery veldt]

but when it comes in round 3 he will unleach his gear 2

[celest zephyr]

I enjoy Israel's antics too, even if they are sometimes cringe

[bitter rover]

Me too

[celest zephyr]

and of course #weeb nation

[bitter rover]

I love it lol

[fiery veldt]

Israel learn his fight from watching anime

[burnt cedar]

He was just trying to sell the fight I’m sure he has no hard feelings towards rob

Khabib in formal events and meetings is quite boring, but the videos ive seen with him at AKA with DC is gold

[celest zephyr]

Look at this

how could you hate him?

He did the Rock LEE POSE!

[burnt cedar]

Man someone’s gotta put him onto one piece

[fiery veldt]

Tony fergurson is crocodile in my opinion

[celest zephyr]

Yeah, the wholesome moments at AKA are the best

[burnt cedar]

Jet gatling all over costa

[celest zephyr]

Especially between Khabib, DC and Rockhold

[fiery veldt]

tony fergurson = crocodile in one piece

[burnt cedar]

Aka luckily have the next wave of khabib and DC in the form of Islam and Derron Winn

[bitter rover]

I DMed adesanya about one piece xD but he is more into anime than manga, so i doubt he will like the one piece anime lol

[celest zephyr]

Islam vs Dan Hooker

is a fight that needs to happen

[burnt cedar]

I’d like to keep them away from each other for now

Let the build up even more

[bitter rover]

Islam vs iaquinta and hooker vs cowboy imo

[celest zephyr]

Adesanya attempting to do a gomu gomu no pistol

would make my year

[fiery veldt]

Adesanya vs tony fergurson

make it happen or vs conor

[burnt cedar]

I remember seeing a french fighter walk out with a Jolly Roger

Hopefully he makes it to the ufc one day

[fiery veldt]

If you watch tony fergurson play style

[celest zephyr]

I wonder what happens after

[burnt cedar]

https://www.reddit.com/r/OnePiece/comments/cihl3x/go_check_this_guy_out_his_name_is_morgan/?utm_source=amp&utm_medium=&utm_content=post_title

[celest zephyr]

If lets say Tony were to lose

the only hype he is riding on is

[fiery veldt]

Tony will not lose

[celest zephyr]

his winning streak

Hey, I understand it is a 50/50 fight

[burnt cedar]

They could maybe book Conor tony

[fiery veldt]

tony fergurson is type of guy will fight and gain more energy and Stamina

[celest zephyr]

Dustin is chasing the Conor fight

It looks like that might actually happen

[fiery veldt]

if conor beats dustin

conor next fight is khabib

but tony time bitches

lets respect this psycopath

[celest zephyr]

Oh yeah

I know that guy

I saw him on cage warriors once

[burnt cedar]

Was he any good lol

[celest zephyr]

He isn't too good tbh

[fiery veldt]

but we don't understimate dustin

[celest zephyr]

iirc the fight was a draw

[burnt cedar]

Damn

[bitter rover]

Is that morgan guy still in UFC?

[celest zephyr]

and his record isn't exactly impressive

I don't think so

[bitter rover]

Too bad

[celest zephyr]

I saw him fight at cage warriors

like earlier in the year

[bitter rover]

Ah

[burnt cedar]

I know there’s footballers who like one piece

Aurier at Tottenham

[bitter rover]

Cool

[fiery veldt]

[celest zephyr]

Nice

Morocco is beautiful, I have a few friends from there

[fiery veldt]

Thank u

[bitter rover]

Oh cool

[fiery veldt]

❤

[celest zephyr]

[bitter rover]

Adesanya said if theyre making a ufc event on africa, morroco is one of the most likely countried to have it in

[celest zephyr]

Khabib wants an event in Africa too

for charity

[bitter rover]

Ah cool

[fiery veldt]

This photo is very clear

[burnt cedar]

Ngannou stipe in Cameroon

[fiery veldt]

Football soccer Wydad

[bitter rover]

Anime seems quite popular in morocco

[celest zephyr]

One Piece is extremely popular in the Arab countries

I can tell just by going through Youtube

[fiery veldt]

One piece and tokyo ghoul

[bitter rover]

Niceee

[burnt cedar]

One of the highest rated videos I’ve seen had Arabic sub

Think it was buggy conversation with shanks at marineford

30 million views

[fiery veldt]

yeah

probably

but We knew anime at 2009

and then we develope our selfs

Some breaking news from @raphamarinho of Combate this morning, who reports that Joanna Jędrzejczyk has informed the UFC that she will be unable to make 115 for this weekend's main event

Waterson is refusing a catchweight and has also refused facing Dern or Ribas per Mari...

Twitter

Sucks

[bitter rover]

Yeah just saw it too

Those boob implants

I can understand karate hottie not taking the fight at catch weight

She was atom weight before ahe signed to ufc

[burnt cedar]

Think she’s being moved to fight Andrade at 244

[celest zephyr]

Hmm

[honest umbra]

cards scored 10 in the first and are currently leading 13-0 against the braves @proud coyote

[proud coyote]

10 in the first??

who tf is pitching

[honest umbra]

idk who it was

but it was the wrong decision

lmao

[proud coyote]

they should just mercy rule this game lmao

idk what the obssession is of putting starters as bullpen in the playoffs

maeda comes in, gets 3 k's right afterwards

[dry surge]

damn

[proud coyote]

beautiful

[celest zephyr]

[proud coyote]

were going extras boys

[honest umbra]

like i said

i knew this team wasnt that good

64 strikeouts lmao

[proud coyote]

jesus christ

[dry surge]

not watching the game but my tl is going crazy

[proud coyote]

it was a grand slam, right?

I've never seen such a crazy difference in a player

between regular season and playoffs

chokesaw is an enigma

[honest umbra]

i geninuely believe he's a HOFer

and one of the nicest dudes

but he literally needs to be traded to another team

[proud coyote]

he's totally a HOFer

it's just insane

[honest umbra]

in any other game, maeda comes in and strikes them out

but sentiment gets kershaw in the game

because he for some reason "needs to close it out"

closers are closers for a reason

i really hope he does it himself because the dodgers arent going to do anything

[proud coyote]

he makes 31 mil for the next two

I doubt he leaves until then

do you think roberts is gone?

[honest umbra]

the thing is he isnt a bad coach

the mans won 300 games in 3 seasons

that is absolutely INSANE

106 + 104 + 90 (i think)

[proud coyote]

92

regardless

[honest umbra]

so 302

[proud coyote]

yeah it's nuts

[honest umbra]

that keeps your job on any other team in the mlb

i have a soft spot for seager but i think he should be gone

gavin lux costs 0 dollars and will prob be better

[proud coyote]

yeah, they have no need for him

I'd love to see him on the giants lol

totally a player we'd target

[honest umbra]

id hate to see him there

that man bleeds blue

but if thats what happens, its what happens

[proud coyote]

farhan loves his dodger players

[honest umbra]

we have bellinger, smith, lux, beaty, rios, may, gonsolin

all drafted and developed in aa or aaa

That’s surprising

[burnt cedar]

Crazy shit

[bitter rover]

Yeah lol

First time im interested in watching wwe

[proud coyote]

I wonder how much tyson is getting paid for this

[celest zephyr]

probably a lot,

happy to see Cain is going to be eating well too

[topaz sentinel]

Isn't WWE like fake or something

Haven't seen too much of it tho

[bitter rover]

Its scripted

[native token]

WWE is ruining all the fucking sports as I already said

anyways may the force be with Swanson and Michelle

[celest zephyr]

it is scripted

but Cain

is going to be making bank

[native token]

I'll still watch that shit show tho lol

they need DC on commentary

[celest zephyr]

loool

[bitter rover]

Hope cub and waterson gets a W tonight, cant stand the other two

[celest zephyr]

I see Cub losing,

Kron is a Gracie..

I am certain Cub would take Kron apart on the feet but Gracie is a Gracie

meaning an unreal level of BJJ

considering his family is one of the founders of BJJ 😂

[rapid umbra]

waterson

[celest zephyr]

[burnt cedar]

Waterson and Kron for me tonight

Scared Joanna is going to run through her

[bitter rover]

After reading into some of the gracies on eeddit, it seems theyre shady af, kron is a flat earther, hope cubs flatten him lol

And im tired of joannas arrogant ass

[burnt cedar]

Lmao

Yeah Kron looks super shady

[native token]

I can't stand Joanna too , I hope she loses & yeah Waterson is a bae

Waterson looked good lately

[bitter rover]

Yeah hope she wins

Karate hottie

[burnt cedar]

Zhang vs Waterson would be so cool too

Maybe if they did a ppv in Asia

Would be a nice co main

[native token]

nice bantamweight bout

[bitter rover]

Vera is awesome

They look like welterweights lol

Ewell can take a beating

Cejudo gotta come back and defend the flyweight from these killers

[native token]

Figueiredo so impressive again

an interim flyweight belt sounds awesome

[bitter rover]

Lol

Wish cejudo would stay in flyweight

Flyweight needs more profiles

Prelims on this event kicks ass

[native token]

lmao as his coach screams NIIICE he gets head kicked 😂

[bitter rover]

Amazing by morono haha

[native token]

THAT WAS HARD TO WATCH

[bitter rover]

Yeah

Corner should have stopped it

Or referere

[celest zephyr]

Damn that Aka fighter just got robbed

Badly

[burnt cedar]

Dern

Can hardly focus on the fight

[celest zephyr]

Hate James Vick

Holy shit what a finish

[proud coyote]

@dry surge gleyber yeesh

22 btw

[proud coyote]

22? jesus christ

btw, is tauchman not on the playoff roster?

[celest zephyr]

I can't believe Cub Swaanson won

he did such an amazing job

why Gracie didn't tap him out...

[burnt cedar]

Let’s go Michelle!!!

[celest zephyr]

OH SHIT WATERSON

[celest zephyr]

damn it

heart breaking but expected

[celest zephyr]

decided to watch the Uysk fight, as expected, completing dismantling him and beating him with ease.

[native token]

fuck it so the zombie won the main event , but she's just 2-2 in her last 4 fights I believe, I know she's kinda ufc's big name in that division but cmon a title shot after this win alone is still ridiculous to me

poor michelle

that title shot dream went up in smokes

Happy for Swanson to see him teach that Gracie a lesson and bounce back from all thos Ls

Dern lost

[native token]

--
just watched the fights, card was nice

I won't be surprised if Zhang KOes Joanna if that's the next title fight in the division
I feel like people will sleep on Zhang again and be shocked

dunno what will be next for Tatiana and Rose and if they're ready to be back

[bitter rover]

Make Joanna fight thug rose again

[gusty kayak]

You reckon merc can go for 7? @tired vault

1 more year before the 2021 changes so they got a pre good chance

[tired vault]

Honestly ye they are probably favourites for next year

[gusty kayak]

Idk what happened to ferrari after pre season testing but mercedes just been too good

First team to get 6 in a row

[tired vault]

main reason Ferrari are doing better tail end of the season is that they pulled 2020 car specs forward

Where as merc are almost definitely saving more till next year

[gusty kayak]

Ahhhhh so they need to fine tune those

Wonder if williams will get some of mercedes old stuff

[tired vault]

so I feel like next year might be a repeat unless lewis goes off the bend

I mean they need it lol

And 6 in a row is just nuts

[gusty kayak]

If nico didnt win 2016 itll be 6 in a row for lewis as well

7 will be even crazier

[tired vault]

I mean at this rate lewis will pass schumacher

unless he quits to do rap

Not a racist call or anything its just that his haircuts are getting progressively worse

classic decent into becoming a rapper

[gusty kayak]

Yea I think he will beat michaels wins next season

Would be insane if mick joins ferrari and stops lewis from beating him but I dont think he has enough points

His haircut has gotten better from last years lmao

[tired vault]

Idk his current one is just bad

[gusty kayak]

But it switches up a lot so who knows by mexico

Also mclaren getting mercedes engines would be nice to see but its years away

[tired vault]

Man it's my childhood all over again

[gusty kayak]

Nvm its only 21 for mclaren

[tired vault]

Ye so two years

not too far honestly

[gusty kayak]

Was thinking 2026 but it was williams sticking with mercedes till 2025

[tired vault]

Ye thats the one

[gusty kayak]

Mclaren beating renault using their own engine

Its ironic that all top 3 2018 f2 drivers are getting the cars they're in

Like albon who came 3rd gets the best car out of the 3

Lando second best

And george with williams

[native token]

I was waiting for this for way too long.. Khabib is a the lightheavyweight GOAT now
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrp4KtpEeJM

[bitter rover]

For me, khabib is not the undisputed champion until he beat Tony

[native token]

he's the undisputed champ for sure for me cuz he ran through an ex-champ and an intrim champ
but he's not the GOAT LW yet

[celest zephyr]

He is the champion in my eyes without a doubt

The moment he beats Tony, in my opinion solidifies his status as LW goat

[proud coyote]

@dry surge are you kidding me lol

[dry surge]

to be fair

[proud coyote]

I’ve never seen both teams get shafted by the ump in consecutive plays

[dry surge]

the ump got it wrong in the first place

so i get the make up call

but the concept of a makeup call to begin with is just

bleh

[proud coyote]

Yep

[dry surge]

two wrongs don't make a right

[proud coyote]

Yanks are up 2-0 right?

[dry surge]

1-0

[proud coyote]

Ah, Houston has home field

I thought fs1 was lying to me

[dry surge]

they did have home field

[proud coyote]

...

[dry surge]

gg

lol

[proud coyote]

Wait, so the first game was in ny?

[dry surge]

no

[proud coyote]

Or is homefield the next 3

I forget how baseball does it

[dry surge]

the astros had home field to start the series

but they lost game 1

at home

so their home field advantage is now gone

[proud coyote]

Oh, that’s what you mean

[dry surge]

this series will probably go 7

[proud coyote]

Yeah, this astros staff is crazy

[dry surge]

they can beat the staff, it'll just come down to the small moments

like, if boone didn't take out chad green, they'd still be up 2-1

ottavinio has been terrible since ASB, his command just isn't there

i would've never used him in a tight spot like that, especially after how much green was rolling

only at 23 pitches when he got taken out, and he's gone up to 45 pitches before in the past

[proud coyote]

Does Boone make a lot of questionable decisions like that?

[dry surge]

eh

not a lot

[proud coyote]

Like Dave Roberts lol

[dry surge]

but, this is one that's just a head scratcher

[proud coyote]

I think the yanks can do this

1-1 in houston is great so

[dry surge]

game 1 was a must win

i never expected them to beat verlander

he's always been a yankee killer

they got to him, and got pretty unlucky with some BABIP

some rockets hit right at outfielders

DJ, Ursehla, and Torres, all had rockets 110+ MPH get hit right at outfielders

can't get em all down, unfortunately

[proud coyote]

Yup

[dry surge]

i actually like the yankees chances against gerrit cole more despite his good performance

he has insane movement on his stuff, but it's easier to track pitches on release for Cole than it is for Verlander

[proud coyote]

It’s very odd rooting for the yanks

But I don’t like verlander enough

[dry surge]

i don't like him either

[proud coyote]

My bud met him at the 2012 World Series before game one and said he was a total prick

[dry surge]

he's an asshole yeah

[proud coyote]

Made sweeping the tigers that much better lol

[dry surge]

also the yankees have an advantage now that they've somewhat figured the astros scheme

they used to employ illegal cameras to help steal signs and tip pitches

they did it in 2017 against the yankees, and did it in 2018 against the red sox

[proud coyote]

Didn’t they do that against the cardinals? Or something

[dry surge]

that's why in GM 1, the Yankees switched signs several times without any men on base

the astros are shady as hell

[proud coyote]

All Houston teams are

[dry surge]

also this isn't much, since almost every pitchers use pine tar to stain the ball, but JV is so obvious with it

rubs the bill of his cap with every pitch

could easily get him thrown out but ofc every pitcher does the same thing

so it's kinda moot

[proud coyote]

Even if they were tougher on it

I’m sure he’d get a pass

[dry surge]

so many unwritten rules and shit in baseball, it gets kinda annoying

"makeup calls"

foh

[proud coyote]

Have you read “ball four” ?

By Jim bouton

[dry surge]

"i got the first call wrong, so i'll get the very next call wrong as well to try to mask my incompetence"

nah

[proud coyote]

It’s a really cool insight into all that

Basically got the guy ostracized from the league lol

[dry surge]

looking at the summary seems like a good read

kind of relevant now especially with the controversy with the Angels

[proud coyote]

Yep, I 100% recommend

[sweet tree]

nationals in the world series

ahhhh lets goo

[proud coyote]

yanks game was brutal

[bitter rover]

Rumors that UFC will do a flyweight tournement if Cejudo doesnt come back down

That would actually be really exciting

Put in benavidez, figueiredo, pettis, moreno, pantoja and kara-france in there

[celest zephyr]

hmm surprised that the flyweight demolish rumors didnt come true

[burnt cedar]

Didn’t Pettis ask for his release

That’s why he’s not fighting Kara-France

[bitter rover]

Huh really

I think he just need more time to recpver

[burnt cedar]

https://www.mmafighting.com/2019/10/4/20898906/sergio-pettis-exploring-free-agency-options-but-still-in-talks-with-ufc-on-new-deal

[bitter rover]

aha so his contract is finished then

he isnt that fun to watch, but got a big name thanks to his brother

[celest zephyr]

smh conor vs frankie

a fight

that no one wants to see

but will most likely be his next fight..

[native token]

I wanted to see Justin break his face

[bitter rover]

Justin vs Conor is the fight to make

Gaethje is popular enough to make the fight a huge deal

The trash talk will be good

Makes sense ranking wise

Fight will be a stand and bang

Only thing against it is Conor might get KOed lol

[celest zephyr]

Justin Vs Conor

Or Conor vs Dustin

You could even have Dustin rematch Justin

[bitter rover]

Yeah

This just doesnt make sense... but i guess thats only because conor is such a big name

Orherwise frankie deserve to have some fun super fights

Thinking it could be more like how pettis fought wonderboy

If conor wasnt such a big name already lol

[burnt cedar]

Makes it even weirder cause Frankie was going down to 135 lol

[celest zephyr]

So Frankie announced

that he is going bantamweight

and no for some reason Conor is fighting him?

I guess this confirms Conor is going to FW and has no confidence in beating any of the LW contenders now

[bitter rover]

Well, he is 1-1 in lw...

[celest zephyr]

yeah, looking forward to him going to FW and getting battered by Max 🙏 or Alex if he wins

[burnt cedar]

Ufc Hawaii

Max vs Conor

Book it Dana

[celest zephyr]

I can't sleep on Volkanvski

He has definitely shown some amazing skill

[burnt cedar]

Same

This is the most nervous I’ve been for a Holloway fight in ages

Worried this is the end for the blessed express

[dry surge]

i need someone to hold me

@proud coyote swaddle me in your arms like a baby and rock me to sleep so i can forget about all of the bad things in life

[proud coyote]

🤗 let me tell you the story of 2002 when 8 year old juba cried for a week after losing the world series

the yankees can do this

I believe

[dry surge]

verlander next

offense kaput

the only viable options are DJ, gleyber, and judge

[proud coyote]

I will pray to the gleyber shrine

[dry surge]

and even gleyber couldn't put one in play with bases loaded and one out

swung at a waste pitch way outside of the zone

yankees have had the bases loaded in two innings and haven't been able to get a hit

[proud coyote]

3 hits jesus

I believe in mike francesca

in mike mussina

idk

yanks can pull this ouit

[dry surge]

also imagine how 7 year old jeff felt when the yankees lost the 2001 world series right after 9/11

[proud coyote]

[dry surge]

the beginning of the end

[proud coyote]

I remember that series as well

I was pissed that the DBacks won

[dry surge]

went from

to

in a blink of an eye

[proud coyote]

fucking randy johnson

[burnt cedar]

Think Reyes wins tonight

Weidmann will do his usual stuff and win most of the fight then will get caught with a shot from Reyes in round 4

And go to sleep

[bitter rover]

Yeah

Even tho reyes maybe doesnt have the best TD

I think he could just out power weidman

There is a size difference between them

They should just make the weight classes 165, 175 and 195, and skip 170

Maybe even a cruiser weight, like 235 or something

Then stipe would never have to fight ngannou again

Jon jones could go up no problem

[burnt cedar]

Don’t you think the gap from 175 to 195 is too much

[celest zephyr]

LOL

DO YOU SEE THIS

THEY JUST USED AN INHALER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE UFC FIGHT

[celest zephyr]

damn this Jeremy, Yaiz fight living up to the hype

[rapid umbra]

wonder what weidman's plans are

[bitter rover]

@burnt cedar 185 would still be there

Fucking greg hardy 😂😂

Thanks o his DQ and this NC, he can remain fighting cans for a while and get big money

I want to see him fight the likes of ngannou

[burnt cedar]

Tuivasa should be on his radar

If Tuivasa can’t beat Hardy then he should be cut

And yeah I agree with the 10lb between weigh classes

[bitter rover]

Yeah

Or maybe latifi since he is going up

Would be good exp for hardy to fight a wrestler

And latifis name is kind of big compared to hardys opponents so far

[native token]

I feel bad for Weidman

so it seems Yair vs jeremy was an awesome fight

can't wait to download the show and watch it

[celest zephyr]

Yeah, he is basically in the same position as Al

like they reached their peaks but I doubt we are ever seeing them return to their peak

and Weidman's chin is complete glass now

[native token]

yeah man Weidman's chin and Rockhold's are the same at this point they're former champs and great fighters but Light Heavyweight has some monsters in it and they hit so fucking hard!

Lucky Thiago and Anthony who not only move up a weight class and have been very successful but they even fought for the belt.

[burnt cedar]

Lucky they didn’t have to go through Yoel at 185 otherwise I’d say they would suffer the same fate

[native token]

Without a doubt

So the Askren vs Maia is what's next week and the week after IT is the UFC 244

[celest zephyr]

I don’t know if you guys saw

But Conor called out Dana

Then had a back and forth with Khabib

[native token]

And it's in Russian too

there's the old man thing and this one as well
https://www.mmafighting.com/2019/10/19/20922217/report-conor-mcgregor-under-investigation-after-second-sexual-assault-allegation#comments

this man ruined his career with his own hands and stupidity

[celest zephyr]

Exactly, what Dana said about him was right

[native token]

Just realized that Rockhold's fight went to the 2nd round while Weidman's ended in less than 2 minutes

and Rockhold wasd Weidman's 1st loss and ever since since haven't been so great for Chris

5 Ls all KO/TKOes

[celest zephyr]

Rockhold hasn't been on a tough run too, and it hurts even more considering he comes out of Aka

[burnt cedar]

Hope he retires

Let a new wave of talent come from AKA

Deron Winn also lost last night

And Luis Pena was robbed the week before

Been a tough month for the gym

[celest zephyr]

yup

cant forget the DC loss

[native token]

Conor was never my son says Dana haha
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxP4oVsDDN4

[celest zephyr]

lol

[bitter rover]

Haha what

Ah lol

Conor is just one of many fighters to me, and if he never returns i wouldnt care

Just let the divion keep moving

I hate when its in stalement, like lw was during the conor period

[bitter rover]

True lol

I get that they wanted the highest ranking opponent as possible

But it would be way smarter to go a little bit slower in to the division, fighting some of the vets instead like Glover or Shogun

[proud coyote]

when did jon jones lose? I thought he was undefeated?

[bitter rover]

He hasnt lost except for a dq early in his career

[proud coyote]

ah

[native token]

Romero fucked their chins up and Bobby knuckles' too

[bitter rover]

Romero would probably run into the same fate in lhw i think

Lets see how jacare does

[burnt cedar]

I feel like most middleweights would be fine at lhw it’s just they should build themselves up properly

Fight guys outside the top 10

Then build there way up

[bitter rover]

Yeah, but also depends on who they fight i guess

[burnt cedar]

That’s true

[bitter rover]

Reyes was noticeably bigger than weidman

Too strong to get wrestlefucked by a mw

[burnt cedar]

Same for Jan and Rockhold

He could not grapple with him

[bitter rover]

Yeah, theyre about the same height

But jan just looked more dense, and luke more like a swollen muscle balloon lol

[burnt cedar]

Is there any good fights on the Singapore card

Seen no promotion for it

[bitter rover]

I only know the main event

Havnt checked

[proud coyote]

Ill be watching stevie ray vs michael johnson

[bitter rover]

Maia vs askren will be nice

I just want to see an askren fights going a few rounds

[native token]

Romero's chin is something else with all the weight cutting issues considered and the draining of his body following that .. what happens if he's at LHW where he can be healthier and let's say with that very same chin he has at 185 🤔

[bitter rover]

Micheal johnson is co headlining

[burnt cedar]

Don’t have to stay up at 5am to watch

[bitter rover]

Weak event

[proud coyote]

yeah, it's definitely weak

[bitter rover]

I think he will get picked apart

[proud coyote]

they aren't promoting at all basically

[bitter rover]

Romero

[proud coyote]

stevie ray is fun to watch

[bitter rover]

Dont know who ray is hmm

Singaporean cards have always been sort of weak...

Would be fun if they had some southeast asian talent in there

[burnt cedar]

Leon Edwards and Cowboy was the main event last year

[bitter rover]

Some former muay thai fighters and what not

Like ONE

Yeah

[burnt cedar]

I’ve watched some of the ONE cards

Enjoy the variety of fights

[bitter rover]

Yeah

I wish the best ones from one and bellator just went or stayed within ufc tho xD

[burnt cedar]

Would love for Aung la Nsang to come to the ufc

Looks like a massive star is Asia and somebody the ufc could market

[bitter rover]

Yeaaah

That guy

He just knocked out Vera

He would fill in a demographic that is largely missing in UFC as wel

He trains with usman, rockhold and those guys doen there with henry hoft

I couldnt imagine having to watch this game with people who had nothing at stake and I'm just a lowly fan. Cashman the GM having to do it is wild

cashman with the airpods in, white pants

fresh as hell

[proud coyote]

thumbs out of his pockets lmao

dude is styled and dialed in

[dry surge]

listen

i love didi

he's a great person, great ball player, can pick it at SS and has a great arm

but he's SO frustrating when it comes to RISP

it seems like he swings at the first pitch EVERY TIME with RISP

sucks away the momentum

after so many good ABs that inning to get the bases loaded, Didi swings first pitch at a bad pitch and chops it softly to the pitcher

[proud coyote]

joe panik always had the same issue for us

his average was like 30 or 40 points lower for RISP

nice pitch there

[dry surge]

pull that hand back bald feller

and i hate john smoltz with a passion but he had a good point there

yanks' game plan of throwing high fastballs to fool astros hitters is a terrible one

they haven't chased the throwaway high FB pitch this entire series

not once

why keep running with a game plan that they've already adapted to?

makes no sense

[proud coyote]

I understand it against bregman

there is no reason to pitch to him and he doesn't hit high fastballs very well

TALLY HO

fuck joe buck

[dry surge]

this ump has been pretty bad for both sides

so inconsistent

he was giving the pitchers that borderline breaking pitch

[proud coyote]

yeah what was that ball

that was a strike last inning lol

[dry surge]

now he's not calling them

fuck

[proud coyote]

dammit

that looked so good too

[dry surge]

gardy has quick hands

too quick

he can expect something on the outside now after that swing

[proud coyote]

could be why he hits more homers now lol

slower hands with age

[dry surge]

yeah he likes cheating on those inside pitches to yank them down the line

[proud coyote]

nice.

[dry surge]

niceeeeeee

good swing

knew he was gonna get that outside pitch after he almost yanked an inside pitch for a homer

[proud coyote]

brett has always been jacoby's spiritual successor for me

[dry surge]

just take it the other way

jacoby ellsbury?

[proud coyote]

yep

[dry surge]

man i haven't heard that name in a while

[proud coyote]

he was one of my favorite players for a bit lol

[dry surge]

he's probably still rehabbing

mans has just went AWOL

[proud coyote]

he's on the 60 day

[dry surge]

he's been on the 60 day 1892739 days

[proud coyote]

yep lol

[dry surge]

?

ok blue

[proud coyote]

literally

last at bat

that was a ball

[dry surge]

nice

ah

wrong part of the park

[proud coyote]

damn he couldnt tag

[dry surge]

this is a good matchup for judge

so long as he isn't chasing his offspeed pitches

urquidy's FBs look juicy

[proud coyote]

he looks so fucking huge standing there lmao

gets me every time

also lol as you typed it

[dry surge]

predictable

yeah they're avoiding the FB at all

smart

[proud coyote]

just give him an outside offspeed

[dry surge]

probably gonna bury one or throw the same one off the plate as the first pitch

[proud coyote]

brutal

changeup

[dry surge]

judge hasn't been picking up offspeed at all for the past 3 games

[proud coyote]

judge has really gotta fix that

it's been super noticable

[dry surge]

i think part of it is his height and how he gets pretty low for how tall he is

difficult to transfer weight to adjust to offspeed

[proud coyote]

yeah for sure, his batting stance tries to compensate

but it's still a hole in his swing

[dry surge]

yeah it's more of a crutch than a definitive adjustment

but their game plan was pretty good for that, zero FBs and just a steady diet of offspeed

he just never recognizes it out of the hand

[proud coyote]

cessa, hm

[dry surge]

i'm VERY worried about luis cessa

his command is suspect

????????????

ok blue

[proud coyote]

lmao

[dry surge]

nice

holy shit

urshela and DJ

love that combo

[proud coyote]

cessa looks nervous

[dry surge]

yeah he's a youngin

just no meatballs

like that

[proud coyote]

jesus christ lol

[dry surge]

playing with fire

that was the pitch that correa hit for the walk off a few games ago

[proud coyote]

nice pitch

why do pitchers wear chains like that wtf

[dry surge]

swag

remember verlander's energy chains

[proud coyote]

lmao

[dry surge]

all of my little league teammates used to wear them

i'm fine w walking him

okay better

[proud coyote]

good pitch

[dry surge]

honestly this is such a weird series

[proud coyote]

how young is this guy?

yeah it is

[dry surge]

27

so not super young

but he's new to the mlb

[proud coyote]

still pretty young

[dry surge]

he only had a consistent role this year

[proud coyote]

you gotta have one random reliever basically

that has a >4 era

[dry surge]

but yeah this series has been pretty disappointing for both teams

whole lotta nothing from both offenses

i think the stat was that both teams are hitting around .100 with RISP

[proud coyote]

fuck lol

[dry surge]

mostly just coming down to timely 3 run home runs

[proud coyote]

soooo many good rookies this year, it's crazy

alvarez is one

[dry surge]

yeah alvarez was scary during the regular season but he looks so shaky in the postseason

he is the one that i'm scared of the most though

one of those swings that can turn on one at any time

easy power

[proud coyote]

yeah he definitely has the most pop on their team

27 hr in 313 ab

[dry surge]

[proud coyote]

wow

nice fucking call

did you see the catcher spring up?

that seemed like he was avoiding sign spying

[dry surge]

fake the high pitch right

yeah they've been doing that the entire series

some hitters like looking behind before the pitch is delivered too

just to get a glimpse of the glove

[proud coyote]

yeah arod used to do that

[dry surge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hUbEo2Cfh4

jomboy is great

fucking westbrook and harden in the back

[proud coyote]

westbrook is on the rockets

good pitch

[proud coyote]

urquidy is a rookie too
