For those in England, what is your take on Paddy the Baddy? I want to hate him (Liverpool loudmouth and all) but I also really enjoy his fights. Wasn't sure what others thought.
Not in the UK, but i am not a huge fan of his hair, tbh!For those in England, what is your take on Paddy the Baddy? I want to hate him (Liverpool loudmouth and all) but I also really enjoy his fights. Wasn't sure what others thought.

He's a *really* bad knockout waiting to happen if he keeps fighting with his chin in the air and no head movement.For those in England, what is your take on Paddy the Baddy? I want to hate him (Liverpool loudmouth and all) but I also really enjoy his fights. Wasn't sure what others thought.
He will have a nice little run until he comes across the bigger names and then will be one of those guys that gets beat a lot but always near a title shot because of character. Basically a lighter Darren Till.He's a *really* bad knockout waiting to happen if he keeps fighting with his chin in the air and no head movement.
His hype doesn't seem at all justified from the one fight I've seen. Perhaps it was nerves, but if that's his usual self, he'll be a meme soon enough.
His get-up and appearance will make him a fortune if he's successful, though. Whatever you think of him, he captures attention.
I think Dana will keep him away from big hitters for as long as he can, unless he wants to burn the battery fast and hard. Logically, he's a cash cow so you try and build a brand with him and then get going with fights that can go either way, and if that blueprint is followed, a bunch of grapplers and average strikers will be lined up for him to look good against whilst running his mouth to set up the big fights further down the road.He will have a nice little run until he comes across the bigger names and then will be one of those guys that gets beat a lot but always near a title shot because of character.

As good as she was (Dern) on the ground in that 2nd round she was never close to getting the submission.Did say I think Dern would struggle once she came up against good strikers and that was one of the best strikers in the division but feck me that 2nd round lvl of Jits was incredible. She is the best in the UFC on the ground no doubt in my mind. The things she was doing are levels above even the people we think are good Jits people.
She for sure needs to work on getting in to positions and better takedown technique. It’s weird that ok she boxes in but she rarely goes for the hips when she is inside. Feel like that is something she needs to work on but the progress she has made over the last few fights is already incredible.
She had multiple positions, I was surprised she didn’t go for an armbar at one point as it was there, sure she has her reasons but to be honest it looks like she was searching for a different kind of submission because the opportunity was there to go for that arm.As good as she was (Dern) on the ground in that 2nd round she was never close to getting the submission.
I don't believe that for a second. All his wife would have to do is push him and he'd get knocked out cold.Chuck Liddell arrested for domestic violence now.

FFS. I'll need to wait a little while longer to see this smug feck head KTFO again.

So Liddell has made a post claiming that he was actually the victim and that he chose to go to jail in his wife's place...I don't believe that for a second. All his wife would have to do is push him and he'd get knocked out cold.
But seriously, that's horrible.
Yeah just read that. Now the first part of post makes more sense.So Liddell has made a post claiming that he was actually the victim and that he chose to go to jail in his wife's place...
I have to admit I was quick to assume his guilt when I read the original story, this turn of events is very unexpected if true.
Gilbert Burns has offered to go up to fight Strickland….the mad bastard
They've cut him, right? @Dirty Schwein this is how they do you if you're not a money maker!Tweet

I think that Dana's response was very telling when he was asked about cutting Jones. He seemed to get defensive and dismissed the suggestion while repeatedly saying "let's see how this plays out legally, okay?"Could Jones or Mcgregor do something really bad to the extent that it kinda forces the UFC to cut them ?
These two have shown a truly massive lack of risk management in outside the cage situations. Hope they don't end up seriously hurting someone.
Conor specially, seems out of control.
Historically though combat sports doesn't really punish the top earners for crimes outside the ring. You only have to look at boxing, re Tyson and Mayweather, both fought post jail. I think of the 2, they could make a statement with Conor. He's done as the top level, whereas Jones is going for the HW title. Problem with Conor is a fight against Diaz for example would draw massive numbers yet both fighters on losing streaks. To answer your question, I don't think they will cut either. I don't know what they do behind the scenes for the mental state of their fighters but both Jones and McGregor need professional help.Could Jones or Mcgregor do something really bad to the extent that it kinda forces the UFC to cut them ?

Thought it was fair to take a point, he was warned several times before he did it.Vettori probably wins due to the point taken from Costa for the eye poke.
