>a light heavyweight legend several years past his prime bulked up to heavyweight by eating more McDonald's, beat the least terrible heavyweight fighter in 2 minutes and became the champ
>now he will smash a 41 yo former champion who's considered GOAT of the division even though he lost to a guy who would be a middleweight if he wasn't fat
>then he will retire and so should Stipe or he will end up like Silva
>so who will become the next champion? Gane who couldn't do anything against Jones besides a dickkick?
>the previous champ had the hardest punch in the world and not very much skills besides that
>he pissed Dana off to dodge Jones
Now let's go 15 years back
>a 45 yo guy was the champion
>he got knocked out by a pro wrestler

Wouldn't this shit technically fuck up any Judoka? Just grabbing them and spinning around like that part in SM64 when Mario defeats Bowser by throwing him by his tail in a big spin move. What's the counter for this? If a big nigga came up and just did this, what's the defense?
🧵 Why are mma weightclasses so misogynist?

Boxing, judo, bjj, taekwondo. All of these have weightclasses for large women. Only mma doesn't because most promotions seem to believe in a misogynist claim that women can't be both over 145 lbs and fit. Why not just add women's lightweight (155 lbs) women's welterweight (170 lbs) and women's heavyweight (+170 lbs)?

My teeth, especially incisors often hurt for no reason, like there was too many teeth in my jaw, therefore I don't like biting hard apple core and I would never risk opening a bottle of beer with my teeth.
I guess I shouldn't compete in striking sports and instead go for bjj or something but should I even train striking, which includes sparring with a mouthpiece?
Also, how can I fix my teeth?

Hello, I've been training since March, and while some months I've been more consistent with my training than others, I typically train at least 3-4 times a week. Recently, I had my third sparring session, and I have another one scheduled for tomorrow against someone from a different gym. I'd appreciate any tips you could offer. I wore a gray shirt during my last sparring session, and I'm aware that I didn't perform well. I struggled with ducking, clinching, and had little to no head movement, but was just feeling unusually tired and my throat was hot and the flow of air was so hot for some reason.
Here's the sparring, I am in the gray shirt. Slightly taller.

🧵 How to find the GOAT with Chael Sonnen
Anonymous at Fri, 8 Sep 2023 00:44:48 UTC No. 165591
If you've never watched Sonnen vs Silva 1, Sonnen vs Silva 2, Sonnen vs Jones and Sonnen vs Fedor, watch it now.
Now, as you've watched these, you probably saw that
>Silva won the 1st fight in 5th round by a miracle
>Sivla won the 2nd fight in 2nd round after losing the 1st round
>Fedor won the fight in 1st round
>Jones not only won the fight in the 1st round but also humbled him so harshly I would commit seppuku after this fight if I were Cheal.
From this we can see that Jones>Fedor>>Silva>>>Sonnen. On the other hand, Jones was much younger than Sonnen, unlike Silva and Fedor. So who is actually the GOAT? Of course, it's GSP.

Is there any sport\athletic sort of camp\facility\play center which most accurately trains for IRL police and military situations? Simunition airforce ,or I think its called Force-on-force? or maybe a version of Dog Brothers kali or HEMA\BON that allows a variety of non-edged weapons combined with striking and grappling?
I'm already saving money to do an Armed Escort (bodyguard) course, recently I got a gun license and try to often train at a range. In a couple of years when Im wealthier I will do survivalism training and partake in competitions bases on that...
>which is another question: Trail running, hiking, or Adventure Racing? which other types of competitions are there based on land navigation and athleticism
