@The LBC I mean, FFS, Paul just threw WATER BALLOONS at Dillon Danis. I mean, what the actual ****?

There's a dude on Twitter that thinks it's absurd to think that Nunes could stand with him and survive.  Granted, the moron thinks she's a "135lb woman" and doesn't seem to be aware that her walkaround weight (which would be what she would fight an catchweight exhibition bout against him at) is in the 160's, or that she trains pretty exclusively with male sparring partners.  But I swear some of these guys get so twisted on the misogynist part that they never bother to learn how much someone having quality footwork can make a world of difference in terms of their striking game (especially with their hands).  Anyone with remotely good footwork wouldn't stand in the pocket for him, they'd be moving in and out and wearing him the hell out.  As to Nunes specifically, I'm willing to bet she could drop Jake with just body punches if it came to it.  If you really feel like schooling the dude, beekay, I can tag you in the thread.

Ha, I've learned long ago that you can't reason with twitter folk. I trust you to do plenty of schooling on that cat that you don't need me.

****, I'd bet on Cyborg to plant that ****er to the mat too though she doesn't have the same footwork Nunes does. That fight with Nate Robinson showed that Paul sucks. He never really hit Nate clean. Nunes would make him cry like the ***** he is.

Dana trying to say that DuBronx will fight the winner of Conor Dustin. I doubt it. Not unless Khabib vacates.

Yea thats the big if. If Khabib vacates then it makes sense but if he doesnt and Khabib actually agrees to fight Conor/Dustin which he makes seem like its unlikely then it has to be Charles next

Unless they make the Conor/Poirier fight for the IC I don't think he fights Charles next. I think it'll be Khabib, Diaz, or Masvidal.
