Davis vs Garcia

Ryan Garcia challenges Gervonta Davis on April 22, 2023, and if you listen to the majority of prolific or rather popular boxing information challenges you would have heard things like Super Fight with past attempts being seen as one guy ducking the other.

Burns vs Chimaev

Burns vs Chimaev is a deeply interesting bout that will decide the future trajectory of the 170 division. This bout determines the next contender for Usman’s 170 pound strap will it be a rematch with Burns or a battle against the new 170 pound phenom. For Chimaev it’s a very interesting bout that can separate him from the rest of the prospects post Khabibs class year of UFC fighters, separating…

Humanities and Martial Combat

#DeadPoets my #Mother and a Punching bag convo with a kid @BrendanDorman something I think is common for most martial artist is an interest in all of the arts, but what is the result of that or rather a benefit.

  Why a B.A. degree in the humanities is not a waste, this, of course, is a full hearty emotionally contrived idea based on a rewatching of The Dead Poets Society. Now if that causes you to pause, understand that anyone and everyone touched by Martial Arts is somewhere on that humanities spectrum. I tell kids I talk to that ask me how you get good at martial arts the standard passionate fair of…

Conor “Reclaiming Vegas”

Conor “Reclaiming Vegas” @BrendanDorman wonder if he can do it, taking back his spot as the golden goose in one Saturday night #UFC246

Part 2/3 of my 3 part breakdown, this time around is the Conor side of things. The King of the UFC brand is back against the Company man of Company men. Both men’s mentality about fighting is the same they show up when they sign the agreement. Conor goes as hard as Donald without question. Conor wants to fight now and any comparison to Ronda is skewed in that balancing act, he tips more towards…

@BrendanDorman the #DrunkenMaster Emanuel Augustus Whodini by Another Name

Emanuel Augustus

Every great fighter or phenomenal talent has a defining win and a fight that changes them and pushes them past what the normal expectation of fighting is or rather should be. Mighty Mouse vs Ian Mccall 1, Roy Jones vs James Toney, Jon Jones vs Jon Jones aka” Gus DC Coca DC and then himself again”, GSP vs Serra 1, and the one in boxing that people look over for the overall crazy…

Rappers Need to Settle Down

Rappers need to settle down am I right @BrendanDorman there are like 2 I respect because of visible evidence and how they act.

  So on LeBrons the Shop on HBO top 5 rapper of the post 2008 generation stated that someone was gonna put hands on Kanye West label executive rapper and Pharrell shooter Pusha T. Drake and other rappers have an uncanny ability to display themselves as a certain type of tough guy, I mean by that you have a lot a Conor and Floyd acting in the music business. There are few tough guys by my measure…

Weight Transfer: First Shift

@BrendanDorman I linked 3 of your videos do I have clearance to do so, if not I'll delete them from the article fam? Weight Transfer: Shift #MMA #MuayThai # Boxing #Kickboxing #UFC229 #UFC230 UFC231 #UFC232 #Bellator

  Variation in horizontal vertical planes of attack and the shifting of momentum between hard and subtle shifts in angle play is what the embodiment of the shift is based on. Without knowing how to do all of those things and recognizing when it’s being done to you means your being set up for death as Joe Rogan likes to say. If you need a visual check out Tiff Time Bomb or any of her fights she…

UFC 229's Mental Component

#UFC229 Mental Component Lets take a moment to Reflect

  This is not an op on any press conference, or how one guy got the reaction or didn’t give the expected reaction to the opponent. It’s not about a casual fan base with casual writers and editors throwing up softball question or by comparison hard-hitting pieces that dissect every syllable uttered. This isn’t about the fans this is about the two individuals on fight night when that pin hits…

The Storming Eagle

Stop actings so shocked by what took place on Saturday post-fight. The up on the mountain holy than through the crowd is an interesting group. The idea that Conor was keeping it real and gangster when he through a dolly at a bus all that time ago, but when the constant stoled flames pointed in the direction Khabib has finally quelled people are surprised he was still a rage with emotion. Let me…

Well then we're getting close to #UFC229 #KhabibNurmagomedov and #ConorMcGregor @BrendanDorman I'm so happy this is happening

  As everyone knows now the Khabib vs Conor fight is creating a lot of tension and has its own thick presence, not due to the fight only as is the case in most of Conors fights the spectacle is reaching a fever pitch within every tier of fan from the deep hardcore training fans all the way to the new fans. The non-accommodating resistance within this bout is a person that I believe is an…

Pettis vs Tony Ferguson

Pettis vs Tony Ferguson @BrendanDorman this a very interesting fight

  People seem to not believe in Pettis as they did circa WEC absorbed by the Zuffa era UFC. A slew of loses using the same game plan RDA made famous pressure high volume striking and a nonstop wrestling shot. You don’t really want to hit the mats with Pettis because his arm-bar and triangle game is legit, just ask Benson and Gilbert about that. However he hasn’t been loose in the cage since that…
