Cruz is iron tough. Such a good fight and Cruz was POURING blood for most of the fight but never stopped coming forward and throwing. Serrano held up her end also. Action bell-to-bell
Serrano/Cruz has gotten WILD. Boxing has had a pretty great 2023 so far in terms of producing really good fights

Can the MMA gods give us one bomb of a Fedor right hand and let the legacy end properly? Probably not. But that's why we pray to them anyway

Aside from all the other accolades, The Last Emperor is an all-time great nickname.

Was cageside for Fedor obliterating Brett Rogers. Some real-life stuff kept me from a last-minute flight to LA for this one. The heavyweight GOAT (any argument otherwise is objectively wrong) and a guy who just did such crazy stuff during MMA's most interesting era.

Sisyphus had an easier time with that damn boulder than Tokov had breaking away from Eblen's body lock.

God knows I want to say Fedor takes this one. But, you know, reality is reality. I'd love to be wrong but Bader should sleep Fedor here.

Johnny Eblen hit a perfect German suplex. That was beautiful. #Bellator290
Tokov's punches are visibly slowing in R2
Rolling with Eblen here. Tokov hits hard and is strong but Eblen is very good at controlling pace and action. Tokov's experience edge doesn't mean much to me given Eblen has the best win of either man and his style is very direct. #Bellator290

This dude Matt that Ward just brought in the cage with JCVD is the guy who founded High Rollerz BJJ. That alone makes him great.

Brennan Ward as a +150 dog has good value. This fight is so wide open that I like him to catch Homasi in a firefight and close the show.

Ward vs. Homasi is fun so far. Homasi landing more shots, Ward still landing some meaningful shots and threatening Homasi on the ground.

I was fawning over Larkin in the Strikeforce Challengers days nearly 12 years ago.

Hell yeah, Lorenz Larkin time

Should be a draw for Mowry/Isaev but I have no faith in R2 being scored 10-8
Took the kids sledding today. Here’s a first-person view of me beefing it super hard when I realized the kids were going a little too quick and could end up in a shallow creek at the bottom of the hill. Went to run and grab them and tripped over an unfinished snowman part.

Navarette fight was very good. Boxing has had a very good start of the year in terms of fight quality.
Torres just hit Bryant with an uppercut that made Bryant look like a Punch-Out character going to the canvas
What raid do I have to farm to get this mount?

I did not stream game 1 last night. That said, game 1 went ... let's just say it went badly. Very, very bad.

Eh. Tonight got crazy. I'm probably doing this tomorrow because I'm an idiot.

Had the terrible idea to install League of Legends last night. Considering streaming my first game or two ever tonight so that anyone who wants to laugh at me being awful while being taunted by teenagers can do so.

Extraordinary congratulations in order to , who becomes only the second woman ever to call a UFC event and the first in the modern era.
Long overdue and an opportunity fully earned.

It's always 8 weeks of moody vignettes and people going "OH THE RICH NUANCE" and then it builds to a match where it's like "This is a Demon Dirt match, the goal of the match is to make the other person eat a cup of dirt. The dirt is haunted."

gunther's run perfectly split the difference between "obvious hard sell star-making rumble match push" and "greg 'the hammer' valentine rumble match push" which is perfect because he is in fact exactly between an obvious wwe top guy and the new greg "the hammer" valentine

It is your civic duty if you are a letterboxd user to report every WWE event that finds its way on the site. Every one. Every time.

I don't think the Roman title reign has been perfect. In fact, I think a large portion of it stunk pretty bad. That said, the stuff since Sami came in the fold has been very good (as the stuff early on with Jey way) so seeing those overlap is good

Jey leaving was such a massive moment in all of this. That was the man who saw Roman for who he was when he started all of this but caved when he knew better. This has been overly long but that one touch was everything

...that's the first time they've ever completely blown a Rumble entrance like that, right?
