What's up guys? It's been a while...and I'm kind of overwhelmed. So long story short, I was incarcerated last year around mid-November. The last major event I believe I saw was UFC 22(9?), McGregor vs Khabib. After that life kind of got crazy in which I couldn't keep up with MMA.


Now I got released about a week or two before UFC 238 so I was able to catch that. Other than that I have no clue what happened between now and when I went in besides what I could catch clips  of during random glances at ESPN.

I also logged on here and noticed we can now pick boxing events? When did that become a thing? Also when picking the upcoming Bellator event, I noticed there are new weight classes? 


 I guess if any of you guys have the time and/or the will, could you give me an overview of all I missed? You know, bring me up to speed so I'm not as out-of-the-loop as I am now? Thanks in advance.

Welcome back! The boxing picks have been around a little while now, not sure exactly when, maybe beginning of the year? Again not sure. 

Watch UFC 236 main and co-main, those were both fantastic.

Let's see:


-Valentina won the vacant women's flyweight title at 231 beating Joanna Jerdhjsjzyk in an uneventful decision

- Amanda Nunes sparked Cyborg in under a minute to win the women's featherweight title at 232

- Jon Jones came back(again) and won the LHW belt again by smashing Gustaffson, then defended it against Anthony Smith and won an easy decision

-Gustaffson retired after losing to Jones and getting subbed by Anthony Smith at a Fight Night in Sweden


- Henry Cejudo ***TKOed Dillashaw in like 30 seconds at the inaugural ESPN+ Fight Night and then Dillashaw tested positive for EPO and got suspended for 2 years

- Kamaru Usman won the welterweight title at 235 and made Tyron Woodley look awful


- Masvidal brutally KOed Till

- Anthony Pettis moved up and brutally KOed Wonderboy


- 236 had the first(I think) double interim title fight main and co-main and Poirier beat Holloway for the interim lightweight title while Adesanya beat Gastelum for the interim middleweight title. Both really good fights. They both have fights with Khabib and Whittaker respectively now(Whittaker pulled out of 234, unsurprisingly).


- At 237 Andrade was losing badly to Namajunas until she damn near killed her with a slam and won the women's strawweight title.


That's all I've got off the top of my head.
