This fight is AWESOME. 

This is gonna be a good fight, This card is stacked so far.

Great fight! Vallie Flagg comes forward and strikes and Stout plays the countering game well. Should be a great fight.

My, my - Vallie-Flagg has come a long way since being picked by a whopping 5% (including me though!) on here when he fought Gesias Cavalcante.

Then again, Cavalcante is one of the "Founding Whiners" of the Lackzilians (along with the Villeforts and Jorge Santiago, who exactly two years ago last week threw a temper tantrum and walked out on American Top Team because they didn't like the new management group that Dan Lambert was bringing in).

Aha! The Lackzillians! It is funny because they are both called the Blackzillians and they are currently lacking in wins. Therefore you combined both aspects and called them "The Lackzillians"!!



Sorry, I was just watching some Family Guy clips on Youtube and I saw an opening... haha

Actually, only partially: Remember when the New Orleans Saints were dubbed the "'Aints," and the Buffalo Bills the "Ills," both in the 1980s?

That's where I got the idea for "Lackzilians," and besides being lacking in wins, they're also lacking in heart - a grand total of one win as an underdog (by Michael Johnson when he beat Tony Ferguson) vs. at least a dozen losses as favorites, including two real whoppers each by Gesias Cavalcante and Roy Jones Jr., and one by Daniel Swain; and lacking in character - two caught-red-handed drug cheats, two fighters with domestic-violence arrests, and one who got cut TWICE by Dana White for tweeting sick, disgusting **** jokes (Miguel Torres).

Or, if you're familiar with the old-school "Star Trek" series, you could also call them "Plato's Stepchildren" - because they're the "bitter dregs" of MMA (Mr. Spock having been forced to sing a song with those two words as part of the lyrics during the episode of that title).
