What makes Golovkin so dangerous are his fundamentals - specifically, his footwork, which allows him to move easily and quickly get into position to throw punches from either an orthodox or southpaw stance, and his basic biomechanics for punching, which maximizes the impact of everything he throws. He actually doesn't have incredible natural speed or power, but he gets the most out of his abilities by being so technically sound and well-conditioned. I don't think there's much doubt he would thrash Mayweather.

Ugh, my ass.

Yea, SD did not help on that bit (if it was meant to be a bit): Looks like Tacitus. Maybe LU is getting really old school with gimmicks and bringing in a Roman general!

Tough road tonight for the Yankees, but these plucky underdogs have defied the odds all season long. I will be on my couch this evening, alternately chewing on popcorn and my fingernails.

Hell, I'd fly out for that. We could get a DVDVR contingent in the house. Now how about some proper merchandise, Lucha Underground?

Thank you Dario Cueto!

Surprise visit! With Pentagon jr. along for a bit of the ultra-violence! Now how's that my droogies? I'm a little surprised there's never been a wrestler who spoke Nadsat, now that I think of it. Drop a guy on his gulliver, give him a bit of spatchka, then homeways to the pay winda.

Does he talk about how he stole the belt from Superstar Graham?

Well Binkley already had a view into his future in a previous strip. He grew up to marry Lizzie "The Lizard" Blackhead, they had an ugly daughter named Dolly Parton Binkley and a yappy dog named Rambo.

That dive was...ill-advised.

Anytime you're making a sweeping generality which boils down to "those people are all alike" (especially in a negative way) your chances of being statistically accurate are pretty slim. Yes, well, you know how we white cisgendered males are.

They could have had plenty of mine if their merchandise for the show had something for Pentagon, Mil Muertes, or even Dario Cueto. It was a cool show with great characters.

Free weekend of Evolve for PC players, and the game is now down to a more-reasonable $20. I'll give it a whirl and see how the new updates have gone. Not that anything will take too much time from my Witcher 3 efforts, of course.

So Highspots is going to make more merchandise money off of me in 30 seconds than El Rey did in a year of Lucha Underground broadcasts.

I don't think it's that their beliefs are considered "fake" as in "disingenuous". Moreso that they're misguided, lacking perspective, and so overwhelmed with a misplaced sense of self-righteous preening as to be worthy of naught but mockery. Perhaps they all need to check their privilege.

Maybe, or maybe he's currently the victim of a racist legal system that oppresses people of color no matter how long ago their purported transgressions!

I don't think everyone has to abide by the self-definitions of insular groups. If I draw equivalence between something an SJW says and something Robert Mugabe says, do I get a prize?

That's Monseur Ooh La La, stupide.

No link? I have to go digging around on the site like a peasant?

If you just stick with dictionary definitions "National Socialism" doesn't sound too bad. Social Justice Warriors tend to be whiny, reactionary bullies who spend their free time looking for excuses to lord over the less-enlightened from their comfortable perch on a high-horse. They're especially obsessed with various manifestations of thoughtcrime - Donald Sterling and Hulk Hogan's private conversations demanded swift retribution (their privacy a lesser consideration - any good inquisitor knows the moral threat of heresy demands rooting out by any means necessary). I much prefer the S1Ws to the SJWs. At least the S1Ws can get jiggy.

Well this is different in that the Benoit murders were the act of one man acting alone, with no attempt at any sort of cover-up or deflection. I agree with A Guy Named Tracy that it's very unlikely anything Vince did could be prosecuted so long after the fact, but IF it is shown that Snuka was a murderer and that McMahon helped him evade the charge - well then you need to remember that McMahon is the CEO of a publicly-traded company with shareholders who might have issue with such a man being in that position. Having an employee murder somebody is bad, but no different than things that happen in all sort of businesses. Having your CEO actively shield an employee from justice for a murder, well, that's something quite different, and directly linked to the public face of the company as a whole. We're wrestling fans, we're immune to McMahon's sleaze by now, but how many shareholders will be willing to prop up the valuation of McMahon's company if they think he's wrestling's Kato Kalin?

Shareholders might not take too kindly to all the negative PR. Aiding a murderer is, in the minds of most people, far worse than using a mean word in a private discussion.

I don't think that would be the worst thing, really. Wrestling would come back, but on a smaller, more regional level with a stronger online presence. We'd see something more akin to the territorial days, but presumably with less lawlessness in our modern age of communication. I think the sport would be more enjoyable, and the workers offered more opportunity, if there were a dozen ROH-sized regional promotions and no WWE to cannibalize local product fanbases. Oh, and of course Lucha Underground every week instead of RAW, that goes without saying.

There's pretty much zero equivalence between murdering someone and saying a bad word.

DAMMIT. I did search, I figured this news would warrant its own thread and I didn't see one. Don't hate me because I knew Snuka was a big jerk all along. Piper was right to hit him with that coconut.
