The bout order is weird, imho. Murphy vs. Shakirova and Hawes vs. Malkoun should've happened already.

In the ufc 11 years and still doesn’t use a jab. Being 7 foot is wasted on Struve. Some of the best submissions in the division but doesn’t go for takedowns and only gets a sub from being on his back. I see Struve as so much wasted potential

IDGAF about getting suspended or banned lmao, I make more from my restaurant here in LA in a year than you do in a DECADE. What's funny is how much of a ***** you are when you cry about getting someone banned, like I said either talk on another site/forum where there's no mods to help you or quit acting like such a douch in the replies. LOL what a moron.

The restaurant business is pretty volatile, though. Long hours.

"IDGAF about being suspended because I make money at a restaurant."

Writes 3 paragraphs.

How much did you make? Dare I say, $300?
