This has been the story of the season. Play great. Play like arse. No consistency. ...
Clickbait? Yeah but it's true. Katt Williams bought a portion of Ft McClellan in Anniston, AL that he plans to convert into a movie studio/lot. frick you Tyler Perry! [link=(https://www.al.com/news/2024/11/katt-williams-buys-former-alabama-military-base-to-launch-movie-studio.html)]LINK[/lin...

[quote] Love Eryk, good dude. He fought my main training partner right before he went to LFA and UFC. However, he is no where close to a title fight. He did have a PPV fight on the main card though.[/quote] Yeah, I misread the article earlier or it was miswritten. Weidman is a former middleweigh...
[quote]Thought he had already retired or fought his last fight. Dana must like him[/quote] He does. Eryk is consistent, makes weight and puts on a good show. And he wins enough between his losses his isn't politely asked to retire. But this was probably his last shot. I hope the reschedule for 31...

[quote]And I don't mean message boards like this. I mean social media like Facebook, Instagram and tik tok. YouTube was fine for music videos and stuff but not for people uploading their own videos[/quote] WTF? Do you know what Youtube even is? Did you forget the YOU part. That's the bread and bu...
And he got sick and it was cancelled last minute. Sucks. Eryk has been a consistent player in the UFC since turning pro, but he's 37. This might have been his last shot....
[quote]Because Bruce Wayne is the alter ego. Batman is what the guy is really like in life. Pattinson's character hasn't developed that alter ego yet.[/quote] No, that's Superman. Bruce is crazy as frick, but Batman is a costume and a role. He is still Bruce. He has family -- in Alfred -- he spent...
I didn't really care for it, but that's partly because I'm just tired of Batman and his Menagerie in general. He was never my favorite DC character, but I enjoyed Burton and Nolan's takes. And I feel like Nolan's take should have been allowed to stand for a little longer. Affleck was probably th...
Yeah, I really liked Kwon's character....
[quote] My son has been a huge fan of the entire series but he's been disappointed with Season 6. He said he thought the writers could do better [/quote] I mean this show has always leaned into cheesy, 80s tropes, but does felony assault and the resulting charges just not exist in this world. Or...
I mean, the brothers are kinda busy fighting a war and all. You do know Vitali is the mayor of Kyiv, right? Hate to be the Russian in charge of arresting him if they overrun the city. ...

[quote]He did. Fought one actual boxer - a terrible one, at that - and lost.[/quote] In my opinion, Jake won that fight, and one of the judges agrees. He scored the only knockdown in the fight, and I think there was a bias against letting a Youtuber win over a "real" fighter, and the House of Sau...
He's probably right outside the top 10 for me. Every legit fighter he fought beat him. Of course, there was the prison sentence that interrupted his career. But in head to head matchups, I could name 10 fighters that would rock Tyson's world. And several did. Lennox, Foreman, Ali, Liston, Vitali (bu...
Jake isn't a natural heavyweight. He struggled to get to 228 tonight, and Tyson was a very small heavyweight. If he fought a legit heavy at 6 foot tall and 228, he would get knocked out of the ring. His natural weight is middle to super middle. Middle is a dead division right now with no draws. Sup...

[quote]Can’t believe people actually thought Tyson would win this.[/quote] Check the first 8 pages of this thread and see how many people were sniffing the gas. Check the number of downvotes for people that said Jake would win easy....
