Stipe Miocic vs Roy Nelson - UFC 161

While the Stipe-Jones title fight is shambolic in 2024, it did get me thinking about how many new MMA fans have probably never seen Stipe fight outside of maybe the 2nd Francis Ngannou fight and the DC trilogy. And while I like to poke fun of some of Miocic and his camp’s poor decision making over the ‘end’ of his career, I think it’s important to talk about how good he was as a fighter.

There are probably better Stipe performances than this fight with Roy Nelson. But I think it best highlights the things that made Stipe so special, even on the come up. He was an athletic heavyweight with sound fundamental boxing and a wrestling background. Like a true blue chip prospect for heavyweight. He never got to far over his feet when throwing punches. He used his jab and would even double or triple up on it. His footwork was transcendent, especially in a division where top fighters were routinely getting mowed down by an immobile Roy Nelson. Like look at him in this fight. He’s pivoting off of throwing the rear hand! He’s darting in with the 1-2, pivoting out/jumping out of space on an angle and then firing another 1-2. Sometimes off the stance switch. He’s moving laterally. He’s parrying punches. And most of all, he’s making good decisions. He’s not trying to sell out on finishes or prove a point by getting in a firefight he didn’t have to. Just fantastic stuff all around. And it was only his 11th pro fight.

jamie purposely wearing lynx around roy just to annoy him is so funny but i also think about that post where jamie’s probably attached to the brand because of his upbringing in the council estate, and that being the most affordable brand for him growing up. and how scents can be specifically tied to memories etc. can’t wait for the tinsel fic!

Oh yeah absolutely that’s a holdover from his teenage years. I just knowww those academy dressing rooms are dank with the smell of many a 16 yr old’s Lynx 😭

After the season aired we had a really good discussion in the Discord about Roy & Jamie’s different perceptions of money and being rich and how much that’s effected/warped by their shared combination of growing up poor and then coming into a LOT of money pretty suddenly as a young adult. You can really see it in that one scene is s2(?) where Keeley tells Roy she’s getting a bottle of wine at Waitrose and Roy’s like woah are you the fucking queen? meanwhile the man is driving around his expensive car living in his posh neighborhood losing designer watches left and right like they’re nothing.

Like, I think they both can spend an outrageous amount of money on certain things (a rich person’s ~little treat~ lol) but scoff at the prices of the most random things because who on earth would pay that for that. And the things that fit into each category are different for each of them!

And honestly Jamie seems the more “frugal” of the two of them. I swear someone told me his sports car is an older model where they were pretty sure he would’ve bought it used? I might be making that up it was a while ago but I’m PRETTY SURE. Also he occasionally wears brands/clothes that are very close to regular-people-affordable as opposed to say, Keeley almost exclusively in her Versace, lmao. So I can definitely see him looking at perfumes/colognes and being like. Why would I buy this when Lynx (😭).

Meanwhile for whatever reason I think Roy is the sort of person to buy Keeley louboutins one day and then snap at her the next for leaving the light on in the bedroom as she’s applying makeup in the en-suite because it’s driving up their electricity bill 😅

About those Wilbury names…

• Nelson Wilbury (aka George Harrison) — Dhani Harrison: “I chose my Wilbury name. My dad had Nelson Wilbury, after Nelson Piquet, the Brazilian Formula One champion. And I chose Ayrton Wilbury, after Ayrton Senna, [another] Brazilian Formula One champion, so we could keep it in the family, you know?” - Hi Res Audio Central, October 16, 2017 • Charlie T. Wilbury Jr. (aka Tom Petty) — Tom Petty: “George had Derek Taylor write an entire history of the Wilbury family. And the father was named Charles Truscott Wilbury. And I took his name as Charles Truscott Wilbury Jnr.” - Breakfast With The Beatles, July 1, 2007 • Lefty Wilbury (aka Roy Orbison) — “Roy took the name ‘Lefty Wilbury’ in homage of the country singer Lefty Frizzell.” - “Roy Orbison: In Dreams,” PRX • Lucky Wilbury (aka Bob Dylan) — Presumably, this is derived from the Dylan song “Idiot Wind,” and the lyric, “I can’t help it if I’m lucky.” • Otis Wilbury (aka Jeff Lynne) — Jeff mentioned in an interview available on the official Wilburys YouTube channel that he chose the name Otis simply because it’s the complete opposite of his own name.
