Thiago Santos, Krzysztof Jotko, two others fail drug tests after first half of PFL 2023 season by FreshlyWritten69 in MMA

I mean... You can look at pictures of fighters early/before their careers and after and see some level of masculinization. It's obviously not every female fighter, but there are examples.

Daniel Cormier: "Stop booing Aljamain Sterling. This dude is doing everything you want as a champion." by alfrankenisgreat in MMA

GSP also had some boring contenders to deal with. Has anybody ever had an exciting fight with Jon Fitch for example?

This just got me thinking. I wonder if there are any/how many female fighters end up suffering from some form of body dysmorphia from abusing cross-sex hormones to gain a competitive advantage.

Dana White won't stop main card loser from retiring by -alc in MMA

I think it would have been more competitive when Henry retired. Volk has been constantly improving and Henry at best stagnated over the last 3 years and now it's not competitive.

People with loud cars that disrupts the neighborhood, whether that’s your engine or your sub-woofers. Why? by CookieEnabled in AskReddit

[–]SweatyExamination9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So I drive down a highway at 65-70 for 90% of my drive home, and my music is loud because it's loud in the car. Sometimes on that last bit I just don't think to adjust the volume to the current conditions.

How’d you liked Movsars performance? by ibra_dza in MMA

[–]SweatyExamination9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think end of the round is different, but a failed submission attempt shouldn't rate for that much. At thee end of the day, it's a failed technique. If there's damage done from it, that should be factored. If the round ends with it locked in, that should be factored. But if the defending fighter escapes, it's the equivalent of a kick being blocked.

Probably something similar been posted before but I’m gonna put this out there anyway. ONE vs UFC how do these matchups go? by Due_University4030 in MMA

[–]SweatyExamination9 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

The hydration tests are a joke. They already essentially are using the same weighing system. But ONE can trick gullible people into thinking they solved the weight cutting issue.

Tony Ferguson arrested for DUI after his truck flipped over by Tapacehko in MMA

[–]SweatyExamination9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lets not forget Tony had mental health problems before he ever fought. I'm no doctor and I cant say for certain taking blows to the head could make that worse. But I'm pretty sure taking blows to the head could and in his case probably has made it worse.

"He could have that fight tomorrow": Dana White says certain bantamweight fighter can take title shot if he's willing to fight Main event winner. by -alc in MMA

Dana White-ly can also be translated to democratically. People vote with their wallets and O'Malley vs Chito gets more votes.

But Dana and Matt Serra are close and he likes the Serra Longo guys. I think he still puts Merab ahead.

Demetrious Johnson plans to consult Georges St-Pierre, Khabib Nurmagomedov on retirement by HorrorCharacter5127 in MMA

[–]SweatyExamination9 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Until he turns 40, I'm not 100% convinced he won't come back. If when he's 38 mamabib says it's cool, go compete against that Jalin fella, I bet he comes back.

Why are every monsters human shaped? by LaureZahard in Supernatural

[–]SweatyExamination9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for angels in heaven, I guess they're taking care of humans, so if they have to pop into a heaven or something, they need to be able to do it without blinding them in their heaven or something.

Also, I don't want to get into God spoilers but his personality makes the idea of their design pretty fitting.

Merab with O'Malley's jacket on. #UFC288 by lying_awake_zzzz in MMA

[–]SweatyExamination9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem is that he's been fairly protected en route to the championship, and the champion also happens to have that style we speculate to be his weakness. For all we know Sean is the best antiwrestler in the UFC. But they haven't given us a matchup to see.

Just spend some time working at a casino. You'll either be addicted and basically an indentured servant, or you'll be disgusted by gambling.

Listen I'm not saying we should expect female GSP. Ronda was basically female Royce and that wasn't that long ago. But we're starting to see the tops of the divisions fill in a bit with better talent.

I generally like using mage there because there are more aoe basics for mage without having to change weapons.

The early game for RS3 is so much better than OSRS for co-op activities in the early game by Rynide in runescape

[–]SweatyExamination9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One of my fondest RS memories is just how many accounts I made at the start. I remember reading somewhere in game that mining and smithing would be good money, so I used my bronze pick from the starter pack to mine ore in thee lumbridge swamp. But I kept dying on my way to varrock and losing my pickaxe. And I didn't know how to get a new one, and I didn't know I could run back to where I died to pick up my stuff. Which is why I made accounts like tintang and tingtang2 and tintang3 and magicman6 and manomagic6 and so many more I don't remember.

I feel like kids today are different and would just quit the game after the first time they lost that pickaxe.

Jon Jones confirms retirement after Stipe Miocic... unless Francis Ngannou returns by pepsiboycoke in MMA

[–]SweatyExamination9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's more likely he was having fun terrorizing them. I think Jon is an awful piece of shit and he's likely to kill someone one day given his multiple DUI's alone. But I don't think he'd purposely murder someone. Like I don't think he cares if his actions lead to someones death, I just don't think he actually wants to kill anybody.

Kron Gracie about MMA rounds. by -alc in MMA

[–]SweatyExamination9 35 points36 points  (0 children)

There's also a bit of sour grapes when a fighter has a sub completely locked in and only doesn't finish it because the round ends. Or a fighter has the other rocked and nearly out of there, but the round ends. Like when Anderson dropped Bisping, or more recently when Dan Hooker nearly finished Dustin Poirier.

Just because someone doesn't understand that flying north instead of east/west can be faster doesn't mean they're a flat earther. Before I was told about planes doing that, it just didn't occur to me because I'm accustomed to seeing maps laid out in a manner that makes east/west travel more logical.

What popular singer wouldn't make it past the American Idol judges? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SweatyExamination9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But is that because they're average singers or because their songs are written to be sung by average singers?
