"Connor's getting the back and forth started early"

*says he's pulling out of the fight*

I fail to see how that's hype. Fighers are supposed to be about the action. Threatening a tantrum and to withdraw to injure another fighter financially isn't traditional hype or fighting.

Not only that, her last two fights were at Featherweight. So she's 20lb+ higher than her last bout. Both of them losses followed by this, she's going to get cut.

Im sorry but Askren is going to get fucking destroyed.

He is one of the most unskilled strikers I have ever seen as a professional. He truly is in it for the money. I got shit for saying he isnt an athlete. LMAO look at the fucking guy.

I also dont blame a young kid for wanting to mimic one of the best fighters we have seen in MMA. So what if he copies Mcgregor?

Pretty much this. He's coming off of a major surgery and hasn't gotten as fit as is ideal obviously. He could very well lose the fight since it's way outside of his wheelhouse, but calling him not athletic is ridiculous.

Well, what is athletic to you guys?

To me, its being an athlete. Someone who is in good to great shape and excels in their craft.

Ben is obviously a great wrestler. This isnt a wrestling match. He isnt in shape and he isnt talented or skilled at boxing. How am I wrong about that.
