McGregor the GOAT of course!

Edit: That poster is funny. You would think that McGregor was the champion or something. Siver is all way in the background.
Hey on a similar topic, aren't Christian MMA fighters the funniest? Thank you Jesus for helping me beat that man unconscious!

Haha Yeah I thought that was shitty of the creator of the poster. Especially since Siver has been a pretty upstanding guy as far as I know. At the weigh-ins, all of Boston boo'd him and he just kind of waves his hands at them, like "ah, I can't win." Then, during that post face off interview, you could see him struggle to grasp some identity in the fight. He ended up going with some semi-heel "I'm the strongest-watch me flex" character that he looked clearly uncomfortable wielding. Those Russian-German fighters are only concerned with kickboxing their opponents in half while maintaining the charisma of a statue, despite what 80's movies will have me believe. And I love those fighters for it. It could be their first time in a title match, and you wouldn't know it.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Oh Joe Rogan. I used to go to the Comedy Cellar in NYC to see your flabby ass. How many Liters of steroids have you injected into your ass?

Haha That goes for any sport or award for that matter. I could care less about it now, but it never added up when I was a Christian. Some of those fighting styles have paying respect to the defeated opponent built in. I like seeing that. Good sportsmanship. Or when two dudes get done hauling off on each other then high-five mid match haha I will never be that awesome.

Dude looks like he's gonna pop, doesn't he!? Jesus. And I'm pretty sure Mike Goldberg is half in the bag most of the time.

Speaking of ol' Mike and Joe: I caught something during the finales of the Women's TUF season that I was sure I would see in the news or stirred up somewhere- during one of the women's fights, a fighter suffered a large cut a over her eyebrow an while it was being checked out, Mike says "Oh wow, that's a nasty gash" to which Joe responds (you see where this is going) "I don't think you're supposed to say that about women's fights." Haha God damn that's terrible. Anybody else catch it?

I love Joe Rogan! He provides so much intentionally and unintentional comedy. I think he's a great announcer. I like his podcast too.

He he... kinda prophetic. Siver doesn't belong in the octagon with this guy.

I think that's the end of the line for the old timer. Now that he doesn't have his youth to compensate for his stature and stocky build, he doesn't belong in there with anybody. McGregor looked amazing, but the reality is Dennis only served as a showcase for McGregor's career trajectory, not so much a skills showcase. That will come with Jose, and that's gonna be a hell of a fight.

Anyone else think Henderson got robbed by the judges? I was pulling for Cerrone but I think they got the decision wrong.

McGregor was in a different league than Siver, won’t be like that with Aldo.
