Not liking the heat Woodley is getting for treating this like a business. Dude is 34 and is trying to get paid, people can kick rocks with this "love of the game" " jargon.

It IS a business and he now owns a major bargaining chip. .. it's barely a step above WWE in the sense that there is no clear cut architecture to a title shot.

The Phrase "needle mover" is the criteria for $$ and belts in the UFC ...period.

By making the Internet angry for "ducking wonderboy" as they put it, they're now gonna tune in to see whoever he fights in hopes he gets his head knocked off. So the very thing the Internet is angry at him for (looking at it like a business) they're gonna help him with.

Him vs Wonderboy as a fight makes "sense" sure but doesn't change his life the way a GSP or Diaz fight could and he ain't wrong for the reach IMO.

UFC fans are racist as fukk and hate to see a brother win. From DC, Jones, Rumble, Evans, Woodley etc there's always a irrational narrative to justify their not so subtle bias. I've long stopped trying to rationalise their bullshyt. Woodley might be the most inoffensive fighter in the UFC and the hate he's been getting from Sherdog to Bloody Elbow is disgusting. I've been savoring the tears tbh

The fact he can do this without the UFC's help and it hasn't been some low budget movie is great. I'm happy for him, if anything if he can hold on to the belt he can really get better roles possibly.

I liked that he made a point to affirm that when speaking of his set visit on fast 8. Dude isn't waiting around for massa to put him on he's just going to hustle on his own and that's to be respected

First time in UFC history that there's 3 black world champions at once. Racist MMA fans can't be happy right now :pachaha:

Cecilia Brækhus revealed on TV2 program Good Summer Norway that she will meet the Brazilian MMA stjerna Cristiane Santos, better known as Cris Cyborg, in a boxing match.

- We have agreed to do this, and now I have my agents lost in states that talks with agents in her team, so this here is to, say Brækhus TV2.

Cyborg and Brækhus recent days challenged each other over Twitter, and on July 24 wrote MMA star is this:

- What is the weight? I am a fighter and love to challenge myself. Best MMA fighter against top boxes. Who wins ?, wrote Cyborg 24 July.

This challenge took Brækhus, and a battle is imminent.

- It was actually she who challenged me. She wants to challenge themselves in boxing, also must I put her in her place, because she just can not believe that she can come here and beat a world champion in boxing, says Brækhus.

I'm pretty sure Jones, Anderson, DJ and Bendo were all champs at the same time.

I wanted to add Benson in the multiple black champs celebration trust me. But let's be honest on how certain groups of ignorant ass folks view him and I've seen Sherdog try to stamp Anderson as being braziillain and not black before sadly

You can't call DC, Mouse or Tyron anything but black.

You can play silly cemantics and verbal gymnastics over Bendo if you're ignorant and mad





Plus if he's celebrating the stat. So will I
