Would've been GOAT if he wasn't diseased and dying to the cold and flu. He could've been triple champ.DESTROYS Anderson Silva, Israel Adesanya, Alex Pereira, Sean Strickland, DDP.DESTROYS Jiri Prochazka, Jamahal Hill, Glover Texeira. Beats up Magomed Ankalaev, beats Jon Jones.DESTROYS Jack Della Maddalena, Belal Muhammad. Beats Kamaru Usman, Islam Makhachev, GSP.
He could of been the greatest, if only he wasn't inbred.

>>268203Go fight him and find out
>>268223*How do you train your entire life for a sport and lost to a guy with missing bones in his knee
>>268309Sean is just a shitty style matchup for Khamzat. He is very good at counter wrestling, has extremely good takedown defense and doesn't ever stop throwing punches. For a front runner like Khamzat who is most dangerous in the 1st round, those are all characteristics that work against his style. Sean has great cardio because he never just burns through all his energy while Khamzat does tire out in an effort to finish opponents early. All i know is Khamzat does NOT deserve an instant rematch in any way. He needs to beat another 2 or 3 guys in the top 10 in order to get his shot. His middleweight resume is already thin as it is.

Started Judo about a month ago and I've been really struggling desu, more so than I feel I should. I'm not out of shape either, I have some of the best cardio in the whole class. It's just that the level of athleticism required for judo is much higher than I anticipated, and I feel I seriously lack the coordination and flexibility to properly execute many of the throws (I've yet to get one legitimately clean throw yet desu). Would BJJ be better for a guy like me? I've only done ne waza like twice but the times I have done it I felt it came much more naturally to me than the other aspects of judo.

Is there anyone in here who could stand a chance against Jonah?
>>267125The quotes were so stupid that I thought they might be fake. So I looked them up to see if he even actually said that ridiculous shit and turns out he did. Having said that, the level of insecurity completely checks out for BJJ.
>>261550Just wait till you try to get out of closed guard or pass guard against a blue belt or higher. You will be just as bad as you are now.>>261627You really have to be proactive and not worry about hurting yourself.>>261959As someone that does both Judo is several times harder. Throws hurt even if you breakfall, it's easier to get hurt and trying to drag someone across the mat and throw them is harder than passing guard and sitting on them.
>>265977basically no bjj classes cover much or any takedowns. It's an extra liability it's much harder to drill into people casually.
please tell me im not the only one who swears his name has always been Mike Valley

surprising that more fighters don't realize that calling Jonah's bluff is the quickest way to get their name out there. and there's only going to be a limited time to do it before he reinvents himself again in a few months
I want to see Jonah fight Simon the Savage
>>267881Based Cub. Glad he won his last fight, been a fan of his since WEC.
>>267881>not having the belt checker do it
Obviously somebody with fighting experience is more than likely going to decimate Jonah. Maybe get another celebrity who does BJJ, like Russell Brand, or Mark Fuckerturd.
>>268160>more than likely going to decimate Jonahbruh johah is a hollywood tard with no real life experience. He confuses his hollywood characters with reality. Any average person would destry the skinnyfat tard.
Ladies look amazing when they grapple
>>265432If you are referring to actual professional grapplers, then yes that would be awesome. The fet categories feature amateurs and models, but companies like DWW were closest to getting there (Svetlana Kr happened to do mma style matches and wrestling for DWW videos, but also did a real televised professional fight we Olena in Ukraine)
>>261918>6 tb of it savedOnly 6 tb? I guess it depends on the quality or you may need more
>>267844>>267844Yep it depends. Most matches from prior to UHD are reasonable file sizes. Things from the 90s and early 2000s are generally wmv or mov format and quite small too. So in 6tb you could fit many classic wrestling matches from various producers and organizations.
>>267887>>261918Make a torrent and post it and let us be the judge
>>261918is it just F/F or do you have mixed wrestling vids?
hey. im in southern cali, and there's a couple of options for grappling styles near me:- training with the local cc wrestling team off-season in a club (freestyle wrestling, non-intramural; literally just a club with the wrestling team)- kosen judo school (judo + more newaza??)- bjj school (10th planet or the standard bjj that comes in mma gyms)im a pretty athletic guy currently on the local college's track team + consistent s&c whenever classes arent trying to rape me. im pretty short for my age (5'7" barely) with a stocky build, so if any of these arts stand out as a must for some retard like me, i'd like to try them.
>>265711Depends what do you want to learn. I would do bjj only after wrestling or judo unless you're sure that the gym you choose will teach takedowns well.
>>265715Your reasoning for wrestling is why I'd bump it to the top of the list. I do bjj but I'm also at one of the two or three schools out of 20+ in the city that has an in house wrestling coach. Almost everywhere is gonna have a couple former wrestlers you can work with but I find even being able to pick the brain of someone that did it at such a high level is invaluable
>>265711they all suck so do cc wrestling at least they'll teach you to be aggressive
>>265711Wrestling because it's harder to do later in life and will likely have a more serious athlete mentality than the average of the other groups. Kosen judo would be my pick otherwise. BJJ rules can lead to some goofy training priorities but the newaza practice is good.
not OP but there is a freestyle wrestling club near me, they are welcoming to all levels, whatever that means. I never wrested a day in my life but should I join at 25 yo?

fixies own too
>>267098fixie riders can be cool looking but sometimes they can be entitled and obnoxious because of the lack of brakes desu. Also the bikes are way overpriced IMO for how mechanically simple they're supposed to be. Fixed gear companies are like the apple of the bike world. Fixie riders have skillz tho ngl, can't argue with the steez factor.

Mountain Biking General Guess we should make a new if any of the regular anons still want to post about mtbing and haven't fucked off completely from this website. Spring-time in the NH so I guess those that don't bother riding in the winter will be getting back out now.
>>267013>>267014Looking at the geometry of this bike online, it has a really high stack. How tall are you and what's your in-seam? I wonder if you should have sized up. And you're using backsweep bars to set your hand positioning even higher?
>>267152I have the 12° backsweep handlebars because I was trying to alleviate some hand numbness i was experiencing with the stock bars. I believe the bike comes with a 9° backsweep. I make the joke about needing geriatric handlebars as I believe its more common for older riders to use those steeper backsweeps. The backsweep isnt rasing the position of my hands but just tilting the handlebar back to give a more ergonomic fit to my wrist position. I tend to keep the handlebar quite low as I prefer that for climbing. Had I wanted to raise the handlebar theres some adjustability with the stem..Im 5'8 and have perhaps 30" inseam. That's the pants size i buy anyway. I believe i bought the right size. I don't think I'd fit good on the large but I did notice my fit on the bike felt a little off after a few rides. I wanted to sit further back on it.Im really happy with it now with the seat is moved back. I wasn't able to move it back that far without the seatpost dropback.
>>267014>Fair Bicycle DROP BEST UC M6I was looking at this just yesterday.>The longer stem was no good. That also made the steering too heavy.a longer stem makes the steering lighter not heavier>I was trying to alleviate some hand numbnessrevgrips. seriously. I don't know why they work but they do.
>>267187>I wanted to sit further back on it.this is likely a fitness and skill issue. you're too far back on that and as you make progress and try harder features it's going to throw you otb because of that at some point.
Perhaps youre right. I could try removing the seatpost dropback and just change my posture.. its just after it got this bike my ass kept hanging off the back of the seat. Its as though thats where my legs were in the most neutral position. Perhaps its just my shape. I dunno. For whatever reason the bike fits me OK now with the seat moved back. I also have a really sweet polygon Entiat TR8 hardtail. Its a bike from 2019 so its long been since discontinued. Its a plus tire. 3.0" wide w/ 27.5" wheel. I love that bike.. now with that one I didnt feel the need to tweak it. I get a really good fit on polygon bikes right out of the box. Though, its sad that its seen a lot less love since I got GT full sus. Im yearning to take it back out for some rides. It climbes like a breeze. The plus tire allows some seriously low psi. I can usually run 14 to 16 psi on those plus tires. Oodles of grip. Currently, the seat isnt tightened and it has a 60mm stem on it that doesn't work well but im maybe gonna tune it up and put its original stem back on..
I box. Today is light sparring day. Instructor tells us to go at max speed but 10% power. I have no idea what I am supposed to do during this sparring. If I go at max speed, my punches will have power, especially if they land. I'm a 120kg bodybuilder fuck, so if I catch someone with a light but fast hook, they WILL feel it. Doubly so if they walk into it. It's even worse because we're supposed to do 3 rounds, then change partners, so what's fast/hard changes. Help me out here.
Change the boxing gym since your instructor is retarded
>>267519nah he is pretty good and gets people to win comps
>>267449yeah the "dude only x%" approach is retardedits already retarded but especially really low numbers too.
10% is just touching basically
King of the Streets - no rules MMA on concrete. Completely underground unsanctioned shit.You may not like it but this is what peak athletic performance looks like. KOTS Discussion: Eye Gouge Supremacy Edition!https://youtu.be/II4vHnf1A5E
>>267235>>267236What you mean apart from controlling the whole fight and deciding whether you get up or get your eyes gouged out?
>>267256KOTG dudes just shrug off being thrown on pavement so it's not a reliable fight ender compared to striking. Going to the ground is bad because it exposes you to eye gouges, aids bites, stabbing, soccer kicks. Time spent on learning submissions or takedowns is better spent perfecting striking, takedown defence and getting out. There was that one fight where the guy judo'd the other guy and choked him out all in the span of 10 seconds but it's an exception.
>>267381Throw them on their head
>>267388you mean like in kotg oh wait
>>267388It turns out this can only happen if your opponent is an extremely physically awkward fuck, like drunk or high or decrepit, or if you nigh-suicidally guide their head down into the ground and risk knocking yourself out ala Kevin Randleman vs Fedor. Concrete floors make the latter option unappealing. KOTS once again dispelling martial arts rumors. Throws on concrete are rarely a fight ender. That said, ending a throw in a dominant position is very important if your opponent can eye gouge you. So 1 point for Judo and kesa gatame.
