It's funny, we got two stare downs for title contenders last night and I can't say either fight sounds interesting to me. I mean the idea around them is interesting - the story of how fast Joshua Van got here and the drama between Ilia and Paddy. But I'm imagining what happens when the bell rings and both of them will probably feel like when Sean O'Malley(lotsa deserved hype) met Merab (someone with other worldly skill). Pantoja and Ilia are fucking crazy good right now, and I don't see Van or Paddy, both of which have deficiencies where their opponents have strength, overcoming the odds.

Poor Daniel Cormier having to watch the commission just magically wipe half a pound off of Topuria's weight to keep the title fight alive. No towel needed or nothing.
-
There is a real potential that Topuria wins, and defends his belt against Justin Gaethje. Which means by the end of the year we might be looking at a guy who beat Volk, Max, Charlie Olives, and Gaethje in a row. No man should have such a resume. Do Bronx you must end this madness tonight.

I thought Ibushi looked both better than expected, but also weirdly awkward when he'd sell or fire up. That kick out of the pile drive looked so self-concious. Like he had three different options in his head and he did half of all of 'em. I did think the structure of the match was really good, and I'm interested in if he'll continue to choos his spots more wisely, making them mean more in matches. Also his bumping hasn't changed at all, which is a plus for me. But I'm most happy that he looks healthy and might have more bangers left in the tank than folks thought possible.

DVD/BR Collector Thread for the Physical Media Enthusiasts
jaedmc replied to jaedmc's topic in MOVIES & TV
I haven't bought from a Criterion sale in ages. But I feel compelled to buy from my local B&N just because they don't really have a bluray section. It's essentually rhe equivalent of a comic book rack of dvds and blus. Their vinyl section is much more prominent. Basically I'm (foolishly?) hoping that if I buy more discs they'll stock more discs. I still prefer being able to go through "the stacks" vs. just buying it from online. -

I see that the submission period for Death Valley Driver's 'What is a Pip' Joke Contest has officially ended. Administration will get back to you at a later date with the winner.

Jeeze they're evaluating Ben Askren for a lung transplant. I can't believe it's gotten to this point. I had staph once and it fucked me up, but I didn't realize it could get this bad.

AEW TV - 6/18 - 6/24/2025 - I'm On A Mistico Radio
jaedmc replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in ALL ELITE WRESTLING
I think I'm getting back into AEW and it's because of Mercedes Mone and Toni Storm. Also the Hangman/Osprey/Swerve stuff. Make room on the wagon. -
MMA Live Event Discussion Thread, Winter Thru Spring 2025
jaedmc replied to Elsalvajeloco's topic in BOXING & MMA
I've always wanted to ask, does anyone else thinks it's weird that a kick from a downed opponent to another downed opponent is a foul? I've seen it happen several times over the years, and with Pena hitting Harrison with one, and now this Paul Craig incident, I don't know why but I feel like it should be legal. -
Video Games 2025 VIDEO GAMES CATCH ALL THREAD
jaedmc replied to RIPPA's topic in COMPUTERS & GAMES & TECH
I used to be into fighting games when I was a kid, but haven't played anything since Tekken 3-ish. Recently got into Fatal Fury City of the Wolves, and after a long time of eating crap, I'm finally starting to beat people online. So that's satisfying. I'm still not consistent at punishing people off of my counters, but I'm getting the hang of it. Really enjoying re-learning how to play this genre. -

I think when Merab beat Umar that was kind of the end of the conversation, for me anyway. -

Cory Sandhagen seems like the last credible challenger left for Merab and it's still not close. -

Catch a replay of the little left that Joo Sang Yoo used to flatline Jeka Saragih. Flair Flop stuff. -

That was so bizzare. I've seen fights get canceled during the show, but I can't remember a main event falling apart just before walkouts. Was really looking forward to it. They even had Valentina there to watch thinking this was a title eliminator. In other news, think twice before calling Mateusz Gamrot out. He'll ruin your 95% takedown defense. -

Someone needs to write a super long article detailing the saga of Diamond's bankruptcy, because it's full of so many twists and turns I can't keep up. -
Infuriating stuff.

Julian Strawther outta nowhere apparently. Kid is maximizing his minutes, that's for sure.

RVD and Taz are doing a live show remembering Sabu on youtube and they're telling some great stories. Like how Sabu's headdress was usually a sheet from the hotel, and how Sabu started doing the point to the ceiling.

OKC in some dire foul trouble. SGA has 4 fouls Hartenstein has 3 Jaylin Williams has 3 It's only half time.

Oh shit. DDP vs. Khamzat in Chicago.... So making Illia drop the title really was a sign that the Champ Champ Era is over. Can Do Bronx stop the Legend Killer?

Maybe I'm crazy but I feel like these playoffs have been way more physical that the ones in the last several years. The Clippers were very phyiscal against Denver during most of that series, in a away I hadn't seen in a while. And I feel like everyone is sneaking elbows and ribshots when they get in close.
