Re: MMA Off-Topic

It'll be fun to watch how all of this plays out. I don't believe in crowning Cejudo the "Champ-Champ" just because he beat Dillashaw at 125. You've gotta earn that accolade, for whatever it's worth.

However, if he wants to fight for the bantamweight title, there's no way that you can deny him that. I'd personally rather see him stay at flyweight and work on handling that division. There's plenty of work down there for him. Fighting Dillashaw was one thing, but that's done now.

I consider Moraes, Asscunsao, and Aljamain to all be more than worthy of the opportunity. That division was already moving in an interesting direction, but this changes a lot. Any combination of any of those three going at it would be great.

So we don't know what he failed for. Will be interesting to see what he does. It was probably some weight cutting drug, but who knows. He should just fight it and say he was pulsing.

Moraes is definitely next in line, the only question is who will be his opponent?

Cejudo seems most probable, Munhoz and Sterling could also be possibilities.

Wow, I honestly forgot that Assuncaso just lost to Moraes. I was wondering why you wouldn't consider him -- too many fights. So yeah, Marlon's definitely got it. And with the way Moraes destroyed Sterling with that knee, I don't know if you can run that rematch before Munhoz gets his shot. Guess we'll just have to wait and see what Henry does.

Moraes is definitely gonna fight for the title. Idk who they can put him against though. I feel maybe it will be Sterling if Cejudo doesn't come up.

Re: MMA Off-Topic

Good start so far. That Gutierrez guy looked sharp. Very nice technique and workman-like performance. His opponent was 10-0 too, not bad at all.

The way Markos got the armbar in the last one was sweet too. Hill fought it as hard as she could, but the whole struggle for the finish was good stuff.
