You can watch GSP vs Hendricks, Benoit vs Elliot, Masvidal vs Iaquinta, Moreno vs Figuerido and not tell me there is no corruption in MMA.
There is clear corruption to some degree, but that doesn't mean it is a fake sport. 
you're telling me 2 friends can't shake hands and fix a fight for money? it's completely possible. 
Khabib doesn't want anything to do with the UFC anymore because even he knows Dana White is a money hungry person.
USADA was implemented because everyone was using substances to get an upper hand (cheating).
Even to this day, fighters violate those rules and use during their camp and try to flush it out before fight time. Like everybody's favorite trash fighter TJ Dillashaw.

Recently in MLB, an entire team (Houston Astro's) got caught cheating everytime they played in their home stadium.
MLB was also the first sport to get taken to federal court for corruption.
Everytime I watch the super bowl, it looks like the most staged ball game I ever seen with their ridiculous comebacks. Basketball is owned by zionists who can afford to pay their players whatever. I'm sure there is fishy stuff with paying the refs all the time. Mayweather always had the ref and judges in his backpocket.


Corruption,Cheating,Fixing....whatever you wanna call it 
It's real.

God damn Axl, you need to stop filling the board with fake knowledge just so you can humble brag about your fictitious bets. Either post your full bets before the fight for the next five cards so we can see you true profits/losses, or stop randomly spouting about your salt over fights that ended months to years ago on a current fight card. Open up your own thread to talk about your PTSD over all the money you've lost on "rigged" fights and let this thread move on.

To be fair to Axl, I say they're a possibility that Simon took a dive. As that was Faber only knockout in the decade, , Simon went to decision with way harder hitters than Faber, And it was in 40 second, Faber was a huge Underdog, So If you put good money  on Faber by 1st round Ko . It be great money. I don't know if that fight is fake or not, But its make sense why people say it is. And people 100% dived before like the Korean Lad who probley got killed by the Yakuza by now. as he won the fight by split decsion You make more diving because UFC pay is so ****

P.S Woodly vs Usman and Lawler vs Covington 100% wern't dive and just **** perfomances as Woodly and Lawler did the same thing in they subsequent fight

I think volkov is too difficult to hurt in the ground. Nobody has been able to do it so overeem has to hurt him standing first. He’s more than capable of that but he’s gunshy in 5 round fights to preserve his energy. Volkov has a high output for heavyweight. I expect overeem to fade and get finished

Upsets happen axl. People get caught. Faber didn’t have a finish for 12 years but that was against the elite of mma. Simon was a big step down in competition. A prospect with momentum wouldn’t take a dive. It would cost him more money in the long run because he loses his chance at getting in the title picture which would pay more than any bet he could afford to put on.

Hey guys, I'm not sure if you're aware but @aDoorNamedDad has accidentally started this alternate UFC thread while trying to reply to @Axl702 and it might be a good idea to keep all the diving, Hitler, Putin, Ukraine, Russia trolling or whatever on that separate thread so that the main one doesn't get covered in ****posts, which while I'm personally enjoying watching this **** go down, it might put off people who actually want to discuss the event. Just an idea anyway, I'm just thinking we may as well make the most of an accidental thread being created.

@Spud, that’s my biggest concern as a Reem supporter. Volkov isn’t the slickest BJJ practitioner but he can avoid damage and absolutely exhaust heavyweights who are trying to stay active in his guard. If Blaydes didn’t get it done I don’t think Overeem can get him out of there, and that pretty much just leaves a decision win for Overeem then.

@greg is the man. He lets us get pretty crazy and have fun. Allows conservative opinions. Not like the jerk Jack Dorsey at Twitter.
