I am always seeing different types of pictures on twitter of fighters and stuff so I thought I would start a thread where we could put them.

Here's one of the UFC press conference setup, pretty interesting place to do a press conference!

Imagine the cost for all the custom made bras, bikinis, zentais... etc

God I ******* love idiots sometimes... it's good to have them around for when I screw up. Example: I just sat on my coffee mug (with coffee in it), but at least I didn't spend $22,000 CAD on a second ****.

If Cormier gets in the same trouble as Jon Jones, at today's hearing that will be utter ********. I have a bad feeling that going to happen. (I know it kinda off topic but did not know where to post this, and did not think it deserved it own thread)

Why is that exactly? Cormier was the one who threw first. I know Jones came up close but that **** happens all the time (Anderson Silva ******* smooched Weidman) and a professional fighter should know how to deal with it. 

They're both equally to blame (if not Cormier slightly more so) and should get the se punishment.

*** are you talking about? Cormier pushed Jones, which happens in every single press conference, pretty much and is tolerated at such events..Jones attacked him and started throwing punches, which has never been tolerated..Jones is clearly to blame by taking it way to far. Also Jones initiated it by pushing his head into cormier's in the first place which prompted cormier to push his head away from him. It amazing to me how much some people will try and pretend that Cormier pushing jones, gives Jones the right to start throwing punches. That is just ridiculous to pretend Cormier equally to blame, let a lone more to blame.

But if pushing someone is tolerated, shouldn't Jones pushing his head into Cormier's be just as tolerated? Since it happens all the time.

They're both going to get the same punishment more than likely. Cormier threw a shoe for **** sake.

@Michi

Yes it is, and im not saying that was over the line, im saying Jon Jones punching cormier was over the line. I brought up the head pushing in response to someone implying cormier started the scuffle, which is untrue. Jones pushed his head into Cormier and Cormier pushed him, both of which are tolerated at such events. However Jon Jones crossed way over the line when he started throwing punches and attacked cormier. I don't understand how people don't get this.

@CT

he throw the shoe after Jones had attacked him and crossed way over the line. Cormier throwing a shoe is wrong, but it was direct cause of Jon Jones completely crossing the line. Cormier should receive punishment, but it should be acknowledge that Jones caused the issue to go way over the line and deserves a harsher punishment then what cormier receives. He won't, which is why I think it ******** to try and pretend there equally to blame.

Regardless of who instigated, threw the first punch/shoe, etc...they'll more than likely get the same punishment.

Are you kidding??? The only message a commission can send out is no touching outside the cage! Do you seriously think a governing body can send a "throat push is cooler than throwing a punch" message? Jon came too close, Cormier threw first, Jon threw more, Cormier threw a shoe. Both are equally to blame and should get the same treatment. Dafuq you on about???

It doesn't matter because people are still going to complain about Jon Jones no matter what happens.

Lol! They're so full of themselves at NSAC. Since when can an athletic commission hand out community service? The fact that they're basically free to decide whether to license or not gives them absolute power over fighter that they shouldn't have.

Not that I give 2 ****s about pompass ass Jones, it's just after watching a few of their hearing I get the feeling they're a tad power drunk over there.

NSAC hands Daniel Cormier $9,000 fine along with 20 hours of community service. He gets to do his in San Jose. Jones has to do his in Vegas.
