State Property is probably the worst non-MST3K/RiffTrax film I've seen and easily the worst thing associated with the Jay-Z brand. However, it deserves at least 5% because of the Cindy McPhearson reference on the Boondocks. It's only a legit, plausible crime/gangster film to an eight year old white girl living in the suburbs.

I think simmons only cared about mma when brock was in ufc.
When Carolla was on talking boxing (either him or Sal), he talks about MMA taking over boxing. This was months after Brock lost to Overeem IIRC when Pacquiao got robbed against Bradley. He is one of those guys who believes boxing is dying and raves about every big boxing fight. He doesn't know any better.

I could've sworn he did at least a couple.
Simmons probably isn't an MMA fan, because he tends to wear his loves on his sleeve and he's never talked about MMA. I'd bet it was just decided that MMA wasn't worth covering on Grantland.
Plus, you have to wonder about UFC being on Fox and how maybe ABC/ESPN/Grantland might not want to promote it.
I don't think it's that since ESPN has boxing (there is a "World Heavyweight" title bout in primetime on main ESPN coming up), and Grantland has jackshit on boxing. Plus, Simmons talks boxing (Floyd, Pac, and Triple G at least) way more than MMA.

Anyone else notice Dan Henderson had THE Diving H-Bomb on his shorts and banner last night?
I actually didn't even notice that, but that's fantastic. If there were ever an NBA-ish logo made for UFC, that silhouette would be near the top of the list.
Yeah, it was on the lower middle part of his banner.

TUF Brazil 3 Finale with Wanderlei Silva vs. Chael Sonnen set for Sao Paulo, according to Grace Tourinho.

One thing that I am surprised isn't called more is when someone is laying in their opponent's guard and digging their head into someone's chin. There are times when the guy puts a little bit too much momentum and slams their head into the chin. Refs don't do and say shit about it. We're a couple of blatant steps away from some IVC shit.

...and the beginning to the Blood Doping era.

I wasn't a LOTR/Hobbit fan until well after the LOTR run of movies was years over. Maybe all the way up to a few months before An Unexpected Journey. Games of Thrones, mainly because it's television, is WAY easier to follow that's it not funny. Plus, I don't like the added frustration of each movie leading into another. I hate it with the Hobbit and Hunger Games. Most of everything in Game of Thrones is resolved at the end of the season save for Dany's storyline obviously. Plus, the gory violence and grotesque amount of nudity is far from PG-13 fantasy.

According to RJ Clifford, Bob Cook said Lahat reminded him of Josh Thomson. I guess he means early Josh Thomson.

I should point out that I heard Rickels' corner shout out that Rickels should just walk through his punches because Patricky had nothing. I guess left hooks don't apply to this bullshit cornerman theory.

Looking where you punch is an important aspect of striking in combat sports.

The Giver was my favorite book in 8th grade. I have no desire to see this movie.

He wasn't. He is out with a broken hand.

Rothwell testing positive saved Vera's ass. If he loses to someone who finally manages to piss clean, he may as well leave his gloves in the middle of the octagon.

If Sakara has to hit the bricks, ain't no one safe.

Ivan Menjivar got his walking papers too.

UFC signed Legacy FC lightweight champ Carlos Diego Ferreira, who will fight Colton Smith on the San Antonio card.
-
He's 2-1 there (yes, Pearson was a win).
Except, it isn't.

If this were heavyweight, Guillard would still be a top guy. But he's a gatekeeper now at best. You're not going to notice he's gone. He changes camps like people change clothes.
-
UFC has released Melvin Guillard for some reason.
He is 2-5-0, 1 NC in his last 8 fights. In addition, the Johnson fight didn't do him any favors.

The Monuments Men is a movie where you can nod off for 5-10 minutes (like I did) at any random time and not miss a goddamn thing.

Mousasi vs. Munoz will main event the 5/31 Berlin show on Fight Pass.

I say they're not running enough.
