Essential The Official MMA Thread

Strickland made it clear that he isn’t afraid of facing Chimaev. He brought up an incident where Khamzat had taken something he said wrong while they were training together — hard to imagine “Tarzan” saying something offensive, isn’t it?

“He sent me a message talking s—,” Strickland recalled. “And I said ‘Chimaev, you misunderstood. But I will see you tomorrow at 3 o’f—ing clock, gloves or no gloves, come turn up. And then guess what? No show. No answer. We talked it out, he said ‘No, no, it’s okay, we talk about it.’”

let’s have a chat

Apparently Jon Jones vs Stipe to be the headliner for Intl Fight Week next summer in Vegas.

Everything happens for a reason I guess…

Dana putting that interim title up for those 2 guys I think forces Jones to fight 2 more times at least now. The Stipe fight and the unification.

Thought Miocic was gonna easily lose to Jones tbh so prefer Aspinal/Pavlovich

Apparently it's torn pec, 8 months out.

But Conor!

Been one of the most trash years since I started watching it and the only real super star they currently have is a washed up Connor.

They put too much stock into him and artificially building fighters like Paddy by picking easy competition

Why isn't Miocic fighting anymore though, will be 3 years out of the cage by the time he fights again. Dunno why he got a shot anyway he was knocked out his last fight they acting like Ngannou never existed

[jackswstd]

Torn pec is definitely a sign of steroid use
