The sad part is, all the fighters she has been crushing so badly are top 10. At least the last 4, I stopped looking them up past that. She is just that much better.

Well she did have one corner with her from Russia but California requires you to have two cornermen. Guess Invicta couldn't spring to fly 2 guys over for her.

That's not until May, which pretty much confirms with certainty that Weidman will get a rematch, unless they give it to Anderson.

Not sure why Vitor would refuse the Anderson fight but take Jacare, I'm assuming that will be main event and five rounds of Jacare is super dangerous. That said, "Brazilian Regulated Vitor" is a scary proposition for anyone.

So BJ Penn is coming back and fighting out of Jackson's. I've been fooled way too many times, don't want to see this. Also, he wants to fight Lentz.

Lol Lentz just looked great vs Castillo, he would destroy any iteration of BJ that we have seen since he lost the 155 belt back in 2010 or whatever.

I wish BJ would just go away. Great fighter once upon a time, but he's legit crazy if he thinks he can make a title run at 145. I don't want to see him take another beating.

His last fight was probably the most depressing thing I've seen in MMA.

Saw that.

Seemed harsh, but then I looked into it. The plagiarism was pretty blatant.

People seem willing to give Florian a pass since he seems like a good dude, but I don't know. At the same time, it's not like I was likely to read any of Florian's work either way, so I can't say I actually care too much.

I think it shows a lack of integrity. I'm not a Florian fan to begin with, but plagiarism is a serious issue imo. Then for him to come out and say nobody should be mad except the dude he ripped off? Lol okay man.

This time BJ is motivated.

As for the plagiarism thing, sometimes it comes from someone you'd never expect. I generally think that Fareed Zakaria is a good journalist with lots of integrity, but he's committed plagiarism also.

HEY....don't get me wrong here. I love a motivated BJ just as much as the next guy. But sometimes the performance just sucks. *rimshot*

:wink:

I'll be here all week folks.

CSAC revokes corner license of Edmond Tarverdyan for allegedly falsifying application regarding arrest

The CSAC document said that Tarverdyan "indicated 'No' to the questions regarding his past criminal offenses" on an April 2, 2015 license application.

"Furthermore, he signed this application under penalty of perjury that the information provided is true and correct," the document read.

...

Tarverdyan, 34, was arrested in December 2010 on two counts of felony identity theft and one count of misdemeanor resisting arrest, according to public records. The identity theft counts were bumped down to misdemeanors and Tarverdyan ended up pleading no contest to the three charges.

In 2011, the coach was sentenced to one day in jail (with a credit of one day), three years of probation and 30 days of community service, according to court documents. He was also fined $610.

Weird.

I guess if there's nobody out there that makes sense for Ferguson, he might as well avenge a loss.

If for some reason Johnson is just a bad matchup for him (I forget how their first fight went and how long ago it was), that could screw things up considerably.

Saw Condit was on jre, downloaded the episode. Saw that his "movement coach" joined him and read a few reviews that said he dominated the conversation. Immediately deleted it.
