I’m shocked as well, that Bader named his son. He had deniability, now he doesn’t, and it’s not like if it was an average Joe’s child, who could move communities and be Anonymous. His dad is google bait, and everyone, even if they didn’t know, will google his dad when they hear he is the son of a former world champ and read this.

The whole Situation is horrible.

I’m not going to pretend I know anything about the legal system, but I really hope he can plead some sort of temporary insanity, and like mentioned above get a a plea deal for something like 5 years, then good behaviour and service, a 50% reduction of time, which I think is plausible in Cali, and hes out in 2.5 years.

Thanh looks like a different person when rolling now compared to pre ultimate fighter. He's spent a lot of time at 50/50.

Still think he's one of the biggest misses the UFC has had recently. He'd be a fan favorite for sure.

That’s a little shaky thinking, it’s their tax money as well.
Are you saying if a left winger participates in any tax credit, or right wing bill they are hypocrites?

And the other side of the argument is it’s not hypocritical because it was not that their business were failing, and they were getting bailed out etc, it’s that the government forced them shut with the position they would cover workers wages etc.

*Reality* forced them to shut down, certainly during the first wave. Government or no government, you can't run a BJJ gym during a pandemic. Few people are going to show up, and those who do will quickly find themselves with gravely sick family members (consuming public-funding in hospitals).

You can't celebrate rugged individualism your whole life, decrying taxes and socialism and the nanny state. Then, a disaster strikes, and you're all of a sudden prepared to take social funding to keep your income flowing and your employees from quitting. Those social structures conservatives has been stripping bare for 45 years are there to support society in exactly these moments of unexpected distaster.

Or, if you're such a cowboy, draw on your own funds. At least then you'd have a leg to stand on the next time you complained about taxes or social spending.

A UD win against Diego Sanchez is the worst loss of Kevin Lee's career, which consists of many, many embarrassing losses.

No, *reality* didn’t, Government literally shut them down. It may have been due to a pandemic, and you may think that is reasonable, but most of those people didn’t think it was.
You can’t begrudge people who follow the rules they are dictated, and use tax incentives that are being offered and that they are contributing into, even if they don’t support them in policy. That’s ridiculous to ask both liberals or republicans.

Also, those same people would say if the government didn’t tax them at insane rates to pay for the public systems you are suggesting they would have enough wealth to cut fat during a situation like this and stay float.

I’m not suggesting I agree with them, I don’t, but I don’t like the idea that you are suggesting it is hypocritical or wrong that they use that money

Kevin Lee having a great body type and a brash attitude fooled people into thinking he was way more fluid and dynamic than he really is.

Supposedly Kadyrov himself is in Ukraine. Many in the MMA community wait with bated breath, while a few of us have our fingers crossed.

You guys like pussy? Spend the next couple of years systematically betting all your money against Paddy Pimblett. Bet on 1-2 rd finishes of him, in fact. All your money. Get rich, get pussy (or bussy, you do you).

Listnen, Paige Van Zant is a star as is Sage Northcutt. Paddy is our new KING.

Aspinall and Allen have really good odds if youre looking for a bet. Lines moving though.


And yeah big odds against paddy. Like $13.50 for vargas to win in the second, $26 for second round KO.


Worth a bet if you really think paddy’s gonna lose. I’m not so sure.

Paddy's opponent here is really really lacking, I'll grant. They're desperately trying to build a British star. But I'm pretty sure Paddy will them down eventually. His head movement is terrible.

Another first round stoppage for the baddy 8-)

Didn’t take him long to get clipped though. Very vulnerable on the feet.

He was getting tuned up in the previous fight too. He's unbelievably bad on the feet. First opponent with a pulse, puts him to sleep. Which, given the UFC's interest here, might be around 2024.

They've been great fights. But, yeah, no one needs a 4th. They're each such interesting match-ups for others.

I actaully think this is a fraud click-bait report.
