Politics. Pretty clear Hari is settled down with a woman now and has matured a lot. He wanted nothing to do with a dope contest. All that stuff is behind him.

Rico is probably all natural, so it just made sense to bring back testing just for Overeem-- since Hari and Rico likely wanted nothing to do at this point with who can dope harder contest. They went to Glory and just had it written into the contract. Test was conducted privately.

I still can't tell if Ngannou is a sympathetic story or just the biggest dumbass in MMA. He is 36 now and already blew passed his prime earning years by dicking around with Dana and not fighting. You'd think someone that worked in actual salt mines would have seen the value in making hay while the sun was shining.

Has to be the biggest nimrod in MMA history. He could have taken good money even 2 years ago before all this recent disingenuous stuff he's done with his latest negotiation.

Not sure if you noticed, but he trains out of Xtreme Couture with Randy now.

Dana told him 2 years ago to go ask Randy how things went. Well, this fucking horses ass actually goes and asks Randy and trained at his gym.

He took the suggestion to go talk to Randy seriously. LOL.

Can't make this shit up. That's a closed door on a UFC return.

I doubt he will be able to pull that off again, and him winning a decision is very unlikely. Usman should be the favorite here.

I do hope he does it again though. Its just gonna be tough to pull the same trick on a guy of Usman's caliber.

I don't know why exactly, but I just don't like Usman. He bugs me for some reason and I can't really put my finger on any specific thing he has said or done. I know he is the elite of the elite and I respect his fighting skills, but for some unknown reason I always find myself rooting against him.

I didn't like Usman at all when I first saw him. He's come a long ways from Snoozman though. Give the guy some credit....he's put a lot of work into his stand up and being an entertainer.

I think he's a good balance between cocky and humble, too. I like the guy

lol at Gaethje pulling that punch at the end of the 2nd. Also, Fiziev looks like the dude from Vikings.
