Excessive weight-cutting is a plague AND cheating

lol this is what I mean. For whatever reason, we all just like watching man-mountains who can punch holes through the hulls of submarines try and decapitate one another, however classless and non-technical. Which is why Mark Hunt made for bigger numbers than Mighty mouse. It is what it is.

You know what person doesn't exist? The fan who read that Penne vs Esquibel was canceled this morning, screamed '****! Then kicked over a garbage can and is going to be in a bad mood all day. Literally nobody gives a ****.

If a fight had to be pulled, Esquibel vs Penne is the best case scenario. Frankly I'm glad because now I don't have to watch it, the card will move faster, and I don't have to subjected to weebos in the live chat talking like they actually give even a skerrik of a **** as to the outcome.
