The UFC became the thing it hates, a safe champ (mma)²
  • I have been a massive UFC fan for over 15 years, but the product just isn't as good any more. It's turned into a soul-less money making machine, instead of being the premier MMA organisation.

    I never gave ONE much of a chance, I didn't have much interest as I didn't know the fighters. But with the UFC having maybe the worst bunch of events ever recently, it made me check it out, and man is ONE fun to watch. Even the guys I don't know I really enjoy watching, especially the muay thai.

    I like how they mix in BJJ, Muay Thai, kickboxing and MMA into the same event. The production is good, commentary is good. Whereas UFC has become so annoying to watch, constant talking all the time, twitter feed is annoying and distracting, too much off-topic commentary, etc.

    I hope ONE continues to grow, and gets more top Western or Dagestani fighters, because their muay thai roster is good, but their MMA roster isn't the best. Once they improve that, they would definitely become better than the UFC.

    I watch at least part of every ONE event now. But for the UFC, I'm only really watching the PPVs, the fight nights had become so bad most of them aren't worth the time to watch.

  • Mainly listening to some old Juice WRLD albums. There's so many albums I'm looking forward to that just seem to be constantly delayed, Lil Uzi, Travis Scott, Playboi Carti. Hope they all release this year but who know at this point.
