If youre just going to troll all day long can you put a little effort into it?

Your recent attempts are lazy at best


You won't be able to say that about me. And I'm not native. I put on a hard work to come and troll everyone

All trolling aside Weidman shut his lights out in both fights. He just woke up after hitting the ground in the second one.

Obviously Conor's ground game is worse than a 10 year Nogueira black belt, but they are both substandard. And to say Anderson has a 'good' ground game is not reasonable.

On the list of Top 5 most talented fighters Conor wouldn't even be an alternate. But saying that only brings out these fuckin idiots that deep throat him so I troll the MMA fans to get them riled up because I'd rather hear your opinion on why Anderson Silva is better than jon jones(don't know if you do just an example) instead of another fucking thread about how conor mcgregor just toyed with The Mountain and would kill him in a real fight.


Dude I dont wanna see that. Yet you cannot disembowel them, so 2 choices: 1) keep foaming lile a rabid dog, or my favourite, 2) keep on your way and make your own threads if they're not still on the table

If you rate McGregor above Royce Gracie (or anyone above Gracie; other than another Gracie..) then you need to take some time to watch the original UFC Events, pre weight classes. I'm more impressed, personally, with what Royce was able to do than any other fighter I've witnessed, and shit I like, I like alot.. MMA is one of those things.

I have every UFC Event on my laptop, a ton of Strikeforce/Pride/BMMA/plenty of other shits- complete fighter collections (including McGregor, I am a fan, but his shit still stinks?) - I personally liked McGregor better in Cage Warriors than the UFC. He was still hungry. Now hes just.. well.. catered to, and it seems less authentic.

And I guess thats where my resentment comes in for McGregor, and mostly all the posts on his nuts that I came across almost instantly after finding this forum.

You’re a bit confused. It wasn’t ‘unskilled’ it was people skilled in different areas. It was the beginning of the sport, it was everything. It was something magical that hasn’t been replicated for me.

So where as I am not bitter, nor can I really comment on a figment of a soul? But I do possess quite a high level of common sense, so I don’t think you really want to squabble the irrelevant with me, there’s no winning.

But tell me Khabib doesn’t take McGregor down at will for five rounds and hump him to victory? UFC is protecting their investment, more of an entertainment thing now than actual competition.

1st - dont argue with them
2nd - Khabib has a good chance of taking Conor down and submitting him. If he does not get ko'd before.
3rd - we cant see Khabib vs Conor because HE RAN AWAY from the current interim champion

one-dimensionalism is not current mma clueless shrimpbrain

most Gracies are the cancer of modern mma, flat out refusing to learn other skills, do you research before you speak, who you are speaking about

Cant deny the lef han of gawd.

His striking would be elite if he had the gas tank to follow through with it.

The pioneer of holding subs too long, royce was a giant douche. But yeah what he did in the early 90s was amazing. Royce vs. Severn was the 90s version of Anderson vs. Chael

Plus the gracies handpicked royce's opponents. The ufc wasn't created to find out what the greatest martial art was, it was created to demonstrate that bjj was the greatest martial art.

Royce Gracie shows to the world that technic can beat power and brawlers and he did it over 2-3 UFC in a row.
He setup the blue print on how mma should be vs brawlers and stand up and trade punches.
After Royce, the MMA start to evolve to the sport we have today
nothing else to add
period


some good read for the dorks
