Speaking of how crappy Chicago can be, there's been a string of high end bikes stolen nearby me and after facebook creeping on the guy, I saw this as his 11th profile picture.

Jon Jones really is the worst. (the bike thief is the blonde kid)

Also, this kid used to train Joe Rogan and is a brown under Eddie Bravo.

No, Jones was never a top level draw and Lesnar is past his top drawing power. Now if it's the co-main of Conor - GSP....

BTW, I think it's a bad look if the book Lesnar again, who they made get exemptions for the normal drug testing window and then he didn't even try to pass when he was tested.

Yea, Brock played everyone last time out. From the UFC, to the fans, and especially Mark Hunt. I can't even imagine how much money that dude made for that. Even the UFC should be pissed at him although I'm sure Dana just can't stay mad at his Brock.

Canada's Public Pension Plan just invested in the UFC??

Have I mentioned that I think these fighter purses are becoming exorbitant and that I think the UFC should have Ngoudono fight One Direction? My cats gotta eat.

They invested in WME, not the UFC specifically. It's a risky investment for a pension plan.

Not if we create efficiencies and properly correct for revenue diversion.

For example, I heard some of you guys stream or otherwise pirate the events. Don't think this isn't going to be reported to Ari, you're straight-up stealing kibble from my cats.

ABC passes guidelines for instant replay use in MMA

Also

Also approved by the ABC was a guideline regarding the loss of bodily function during a fight. The policy states that if a fighter, during a round, “visibly loses control of bodily function (vomit, urine, bowels),” the fight will be stopped and that athlete will lose by TKO.

Helwani tweeted that that hasn't been offered (yet?) it's what JJ put out there.

A lot of people don't realize the subtleties of Nate's classical sumo. 6'2'', 170 pounds, he is something of a prodigy.
