So if Yoel Romero is clearly caught for roids, then what does that say about his fight with Machida??? He suffered some serious damage to the head because of having to defend against someone who juiced up.
>>890696
Use your common sense and don't buy into the binary thinking of MMA commentators.
If Machida really suffered brain damage it was the result of being punched in the face by a monster called Yoel Romero, roids or not.
The idea that roids suddenly make punches dangerous while they are perfectly fine otherwise is ludicrous. Yes, of course Romero would have been less powerful and less dangerous if he hadn't been juicing but that wouldn't have changed the fact that punches to the face fuck you up.
Finally, consider this: martial artists spend hours upon hours, day after day training and sparring in the gym. They get their bodies beaten up all the time and get punched in the head regularly. One fight rarely makes a difference. Rather, it's the accumulation of tremendous amounts of punishment over the course of a career, most of which takes place away from the limelight in a gym. A professional has 20-30 matches in his career, but maybe as many as 2000 sparring sessions.

same thing that happend with diaz vs silva after silva was found on roids. Diaz didnt go down even with silva roided up punches, they will do little to nothing.
In the case your taking about fuck if its true.
but like >>891416 said it was just the straw that broke the camels back if you will but still shitty regardless.
>>890696
Dude, MMA belongs in /sp/. There is nothing alternative about it anymore.
What die hard Undertaker fans like most him. His Deadman gimmick or his Big Evil(Biker) gimmick.
me: Big Evil
>>890460
Are you indian?
>>890460
dead
>>890460
we know you like the big evil better, that's why you made the thread, to show us that you're different than the rest of the logical people that like the Deadman gimmick better. Also you're a retard.
/asp/ lets start a thread about tactics, methods and techniques that you use in your trainings/sparring
I'll start, its about shifting stances in boxing, explained with GGG

I've actually been working on this. I've actuall seen it a lot of places. One of our best Thai Boxers was having us do drills with this. I saw Phil Norman heavily uses this in his "Ghost" system. I also noticed Lyoto Machida showing it in his Karate videos.
I like it.
What you're guna want to do is punch them very hard while trying to not get punched yourself

>it's an "evil boss wins the world title" reign
>>893532
> It's a 5 minute babyface reign to transition back to a different heel because "Mu'h chase"
>it's an endless babyface title reign because "Muh hero to the people"
>>893558
> Babyface total days after Punk's long ass reign: 320
> Heel total days after Punk's long ass reign: 655
We need that to happen. The WWE has for some reason got into the funk of never giving any pay-off for the babyfaces.
What are the toughest special forces in US? In the world? I know it's unrelated here and I've never been to /k/ and maybe it's stupid to ask it there.
its a toss up between the special olympians or /b/
>>891847
>What are the toughest special forces in US?
Classified.
>In the world?
I don't know.
/k/ here
There isn't one
There's so many different groups for very specific things.
If I wanted someone blackbagged in the middle of the night I wouldn't call the Green Berets yet they're who I'd want for training an insurgent force.
Hey all, I've been looking into joining a gym and getting into BBJ but I really don't want to fall into the McDojo camp and waste my money on shit. Anyone in the SoCal area recommend any good gyms? Options are either something 10th Planet related or your standard Gracie set up, but I'm not quite sure if they're just franchised or legitimate places to truly learn. Any help would be great, or just general tips to get started and what to do/look for.
Thanks
>>891509
Only dope smokers are allowed at 10th planet.
If you want real Jiu Jitsu, go with GJJ.
>>891509
California is one of the best places for BJJ. Personally I am not a fan of that 10th planet shit, but go with whatever. It shouldn't be hard to find a BJJ gym in california.
>>891509
10th Planet has the best reefer.
This is all it took to get Roman over.

Was it that hard, Vince?
Vince only wants things to be over in HIS way.

is the WWE Diva Division saved /asp/ ?
>>889637
now that the #divasrevolution meme has stopped and they've got a decent feud it's good
it's almost like booking a face and a heel is better than booking your entire roster in a feud with each other
>>889641
yea ! i notice theyve been pretty stable crazy in general as of late.
Becky is the only one I actual care about. Charlotte is being top heel to her credit.
Shame Sasha got utilised so poorly.
ITT: Yes, that was really a thing.
i'll start on easy mode. The Great Khali
>Can barely walk without assistance, never mind wrestle
>Legitimately speaks little english, leading to further difficulties in the ring

Vince really does love those big guys.

I feel bad for him sometimes

I know Daivari is a shit stain irl, but I'm surprised the E hasn't bought him back for a Muslim extremist gimmick as manager or chicken shit heel.
Why are there no bike threads in /asp/?
>>880904
Because /n/ is normally where all the bike threads go.
>>880923
I understand that for discussing commuting; but there is a skateboarding thread, and a fruitbooting thread here. And a lot of discussions on /n/ are based around the recreational side of biking, which seems like it belongs here.
>>881399
Go to /n/ if you want to discuss cycling because that's where all the cycling threads are.
