Robinson has been done and would have shut down/sold the gym if not for Rumble. He is the only reason it still exists.

Conor got his nickname trademarked or something to that effect.

Wonder if he'll want money from EA, lol.

"Conor McGregor is starting to think about his business outside the Octagon.

Earlier this month, the reigning UFC lightweight champion, through his company called McGregor Sports and Entertainment, filed to trademark his name and his nickname "The Notorious."

The two filings, which were recently posted on the website for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, state that McGregor intends to use the trademarks with products such as aftershave, video games, books, clothing, restaurants, barbershops and health clubs.

While McGregor has had a separate deal with Reebok that allows them to use his name and nickname, the company does not own the marks. Neither does the UFC, whose new owner WME/IMG took over last year.

The king of filing for trademarks in the sports world is his current nemesis and potential opponent, boxer Floyd Mayweather, who has filed for more than 230 trademarks in the past six and a half years."

Trademarks don't prevent you from using the name to identify someone within the game.

Kelvin might be smallest MW ever. Not really, but he looks small here.

Re: OS MMA Random Thread

Kelvin is by far the smallest MW. He has a thick core, but that's about it. Whittaker moved up from WW also, and he's still 3 inches taller than Gastelum. Shoot, most of the LWs are taller than him. There's even FWs taller than him..

Vitor is one of my favorite fighters of all time. Glad to see him looking big n healthy again!!!

I think Gastelum will be too fast for him though. Kelvin has some crazy footwork.

Re: OS MMA Random Thread

I'm very pleased to see the refs trying to enforce this new extended hand rule these last couple of events. Eye pokes in MMA was out of control, something had to be done to limit this.

Agreed on Vitor and Kelvin. I thought Kelvin looked great vs. Tim Kennedy. I'd like to see him stay at 185 and use his speed advantage.

Re: OS MMA Random Thread

Pretty sure Dana said he won't let him "try" and make 170 again so he's definitely not going anywhere

Re: OS MMA Random Thread

Id buy a shirt. That's badass. Killashaw's one of my favorites. Guy is next level.

I think it's hilarious Dillashaw's nickname has ALWAYS been "The Viper" which ya know...is a snake... but everyone calling him a snake thinks theyre soooooo clever.

Dudes always been the snake. Haha.
