So good. Went right by that lame Conor fan and he had no idea.

Anybody else into the Ariel/Till stuff? Till is at his best with Ariel, just being the bad kid in the back of the classroom saying swears and stupid childish jokes. They work well together with that dynamic.

OK, the only interesting thing is both Suga Show and Conor not wearing the shirt + shorts for the photo opp. Conor not even wearing any UFC gear to start.

Max is so awesome, couldn't be more likeable.

Yeah till an ariel are great. Even just their banter on twitter is great.

Dana is such a ****. Ariel is great for the sport and hes just too much in his feelings to make the most of him. Dudes got a million followers on twitter. Thats more than most fighters besides conor and khabib.

This next fight is going to be insane. Hall was just not gifted enough physically. For Maia's credit, he always had pretty good wrestling which made him so dynamic.

ESPN feed just cut out at the start of the round for like 40 seconds.

He’s talked openly about not wanting a long career - red flag to your employers. They will look to give opportunities to longer term investments.

You get mauled in a title fight, then go on to rip your employer in the media…who has full control of your career.

Like he’s done nothing to help himself with except have an exciting style. I like Justin, just didn’t play his cards well imo.

Not trying to nitpick too much, but I think much of that could be argued the other way. For example...

- Justin not wanting a long career (as a banger) also benefits the UFC in that he's laying it all out there as an exciting fighter, which is exactly what they want. Also, I don't think a predatory operation like the UFC gives much of a damn about fighter longevity. Other than the fact that they want durable yes-men who they can order around and chronically underpay.

- I don't think it's fair to say Justin got mauled by Khabib when pretty much everyone gets mauled by the guy. It's ordinary and unremarkable, and barely a knock on him going forward IMO.

- I agree it's never good to rip the hypersensitive tomato-head, but the alternative is being an obnoxious sh-t talker who helps build fake drama so as to fleece casuals and blood sport fans. But to me it's beyond embarrassing that a UFC fighter's ability to get paid fairly usually relies on jettisoning one's dignity, class, respect... things like that. I.e., many of the same principals that any good MMA gym try to teach. So I really can't fault Justin for keeping it real, and hopefully he'll indeed move on from this predatory business for his and his family's sake. Like, why not retire early and become one of the top trainers at a gym, maybe?

I get the stoppage but he let it go that far give him another 30 seconds... He did say protect yourself though. Dude got brain damage that fight.

Tough as **** though

I wish they'd have fights at 2 different locations and thus generally have the next fight ready to go at the other location when a fight finishes in one place.

Anyways, I'm so done with Conor, I'm not even streaming this one.
