If you gave the first to rountree then you don’t value damage, I don’t know what to tell you.

20-18 Pena after 2. She is very active off her back.

Hey ******, this ain’t pride scoring, it round by round so yes it doesn’t matter because Pracnio won 2 round to 1. You think you are so smart but you as dumb as the rest of us. A close fight is not a Robery, it a close fight

Wow I’m impressed you spelled “******” correctly, I think that’s a first for you. 

Also, there’s that sub I was talking about. Vintage McMann, baby.

Nunes would beat the last remaining brain cells out of dumbass Pena.  How is she ducking her, why the **** would a champ want to fight someone who was 1-2 in their last 3 and just now beat a 40 year old with 0 sub defense.

I see I'm in one of those "I can't pick a UFC fight correctly if my life depended on it" streaks. That's good.

Jeez I feel like if shoeface pulled his pants any lower in that promo shot we would’ve seen his pubes or a bit of **** neck. PPV or not, I don’t wanna see that!

10-9 Carlos, but he looks like he’s on his way to gas and get KO’d.

Edit: that nut shot will help with the cardio lol.
