Dana White calling someone else slimey and scummy is absolutely hilarious.

Francine didn't win that fight against Fury. He just did ALOT BETTER than most ppl anticipated. It's like Sandler in Uncut Gems. His performance wasn't THAT AMAZING. But he's a shitty actor in most of his films. So giving a mediocre performance was HUGE for him. Yes, Francine knocked Fury down in the 3rd. They doesn't win him the fight. If you know how to properly score/judge boxing, you'll see it. McGregor also did much better than anticipated against Merryweather. Yes, he got tkod and Francine went the distance, but just because you want him to win doesn't mean he did. Belieeedat.

Time stamp?

[@jraymond1988]

1:00 I don't know if it was a joke, but one one of the MMA icebergs they talked about one of GSP's coaches who gave him the advice to specifically grapple vs. BJ Penn specifically because BJ Penn did not have any submissions from the bottom and he was less dangerous in that position on the ground. GSP ended up switching his strategy in one of the fights to go to the ground vs. Penn for exactly that reason.

[@tymentz99]

Guys need to fight at their walk around weight or close to it.

[@KY_100]

Yep, it's my biggest complaint of the sport

[@TravoneLogan]

Should've included the footage recently of Khamzat alluding to maybe the UFC having something to do with him missing weight

[@mikefrost1312]

They have something to do with ALLOT of ppl missing weight.. Often times, the "official" scale is off by a bit. Either shows people a little heavy or it under weighs them.. ever watch weigh ins & notice almost EVERYONE is off by like a half LB or so? how would that be?

[@joegood9186]

He said the dr said to stop cutting weight lol what was he supposed to do. Think the ufc did a wwe there

[@user-bu1mv9yv7x]

He was told to miss weight on purpose cuz they saw all the backlash of the matchup and treating a legend like Diaz like that. Khamzat never missed weight a day in his life and he never would

[@alleyjames7570]

Rousey has to be one of the biggest Sooks in this sport

[@jraymond1988]

Honestly I wish Ariel Helwani's ban actually lasted a while. He's pompous and full of himself. I can't blame Dana (as much as I can't stand him sometimes) for being pissed at him while I also can see how in Ariel's tiny mind that he didn't believe he did anything wrong. I can't stand Dana White and Ariel Helwani is so slimy that it makes me take Dana White's side.

[@StellarNomad95]

I happened to be at UFC 203. Punk happened to be part of the reason why I went, but I had no doubt Punk was gonna lose. Still cool to see his debut though.

Didn't he get toweled off immediately after before exiting his corner? I don't think the grease had any effect on the fight. BJ Penn has always been a drama queen.

"I respect everybody who's ever stepped foot in a cage. And before I'm done here everyone will respect me as well." Wrong on both counts. He couldn't even shake Mickey Gall's hand, like he's Ronda Rousey or something. And if anyone can respect him for his so-called MMA "career" I'd be shocked. Just the fact that he has supporters in general, regardless of whether it's for his wrestling career or the times he embarrassed himself in the UFC, I'll never understand how people can constantly come to his aid and spin every lie they can possibly think of to try and make him sound perfect and like he's some kind of a hero that has overcome all things once considered insurmountable.

[@squeezewilliams3003]

One thing you didn't mention about the Khumzhot controversy is that his post fight interview where he said "Allah akbar I'll kill everyone" took place on September 11th and it was in America too. It was absolutely disgusting

[@Mr.MikeBarksdale]

There was more to the story than just, "Dana got mad at Ariel for being a journalist". Other journalists had the information too and they agreed to sit on the story because the UFC had to call in a lot of favors from wrestling to put Brock in the cage. It sounds like Ariel was asked by the UFC to not run the story, in exchange for the UFC agreeing to give him some favors. From what I can piece together, Ariel took the favors, and then ran the story anyway, thus mo'foing the UFC and torpedoing their big announcement. You can say what you want about Dana, but if you are unethical, he will not stand for that. Ariel, being the pushy, obnoxious little toady he is, strikes me as anything but ethical. And even if you love Ariel (you poor soul), you have to admit that his little pity party was so pathetic. No wonder none of the hairy chested cavemen involved in the UFC don't respect him.

Minority opinion here, I think GSP won those 3 rounds and he did it against a juicer. 7 rds to 3 rds for Tyson Fury. True, the most dominant rds, are for Ngannou. Francis needs to learn you can't leave your foot of gas pedal. It's like 3 charges he took 2 rds to knock him down. 3 charges need to be consistent.

[@garyrose9805]

There are 3 judges who rule over the decision in Hendricks vs saint piere fight. The fans don’t score fights, the media mma experts don’t score fights, Dana white doesn’t score fights. If the decision went via Hendricks there would have been the same backlash due to the fact it is believed you must beat the champ, not just win the fight. If it is judged a draw st piere retains the championship. Jonny Hendricks knows this, he was givin an immediate title shot after the loss so any disparity was remedied. That doesn’t make him the winner of the fight as per the rules he agreed apon prior to the fight, he lost! Opinions across the fandom will vary with this but no of them are the opinions that matter, except the 3 judges who’s job was to score the fight, they saw it how they saw it and that decision is what counts.

I mean if that's the case why can't you just twist their arm behind their back until they give in? There's all kinds of tactics cops use called "pain compliance" why aren't you allowed to just use those things to win over another fighter? why just the armbar? which I don't think should be used to win or even be allowed? It seems like a almost a cheat or low blow kind of thing to me.. I'm not being funny or rude I really would like the answer please help. I mean I could twist my grandpa's arm until he screamed and was on the floor..doesn't mean I am a competent MMA fighter.
