UFC Fight Night: Volkov vs. Rozenstruik

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

Also the fact that we continue to discuss judging is also an example of why it will never be fixed. 

It’s being discussed because someone brought it up and we were talking about the matchup, not cuz it’s a good fight lol. Aldrich vs blanchfield is not only a great fight, but it’s a showcase between arguably the best prospect in wmma rn and a dark horse prospect who has been looking better and better each fight. It’s lame af the ufc isn’t promoting that one over the other two. Blanchfield has been talked more in this thread than kk vs herrig 2 and I’m sure the casual fan doesn’t know any of the female fighters on this card, so why not promote the two that are actually good over the two who are past their prime and 1 fight away from retirement? Maybe some rememebr KK but she’s way past her prime so I’m sure nobody knows or cares.

The first thing I said was judging was about as bad as it alway it, I just find it weird how you were disillusion now, I've been watching MMA for year, It just the same 

The thing with judging is that is all about opinions so you alway have to be open minded about it, The judges weren't wrong and I agree with them on most the fight, And the two controversial fight, Park out-landed Anders 105 to 65,  The comantary made it seem bad when they kept saying **** like Park need to do more despite outstriking him, And with Holm vs Viera, I just didn't care who won, And happy Vierra won because Holly Holm is so boring to watch and beside the Ronda fight, Only time she fun is when her opponent is winning, And people still simp for her despite being so boring

I'll say again, Judging is all about people opinions, So if you disagree with the decision it doesn't alway mean it a robbery unless it impossible to score it for the other guy

Karolina and Herrig is listed as being on the main card. :)

I know, im very unhappy about it lol

Its seems like someone who has an Onlyfans sadly comes up in conversation more easily than two prospects Ayy. Thats my point. 

Ohhh I see

Jackson vs. Argueta
Damon Jackson, SUB, R3
Both guys solid on the ground.. it might come down to who has the better stand up. I dont think it's gonna help that Argueta just had a recent fight.. I think they feel each other out for awhile and Damon sneaks a victory in there.

Michailidis vs. Fakhretdinov
Andreas Michailidis, TKO, R1
So glad I watched tape. Dog time 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

Thats what I’m thinking too. Argueta will keep it standing. Jackson said his striking has improved he just hasnt had the opportunity to showcase it.

I always see an advantage for the fighter who is more active. 

Whats up with this michailidis fight being 170. Are they gonna chop limbs to make the weight

What a suprise a guy name Anal**** is racist 

Edit: I like offensive jokes, but Anal**** doesn’t seem like he’s joking and he seem like he actully hate black peoples, **** anyone who hates anyone just for who they are

Yet all the biggest ufc stars r white it comes down to personality and exitment not skin colour lol

If Blanchfield was going to get a finish, how would she get it you think?

Piss off Anal****, no one want to hear you spew hatred agaist Black people, racism isn’t cool and being a white suprimicist is doubley not cool, people are people at the end of the day, we are all the same 

P.s I know Anal**** is a troll, but he has no wit, just saying racist stuff is not really trolling, it just being a ****,

I'll play devil's advocate here.

He's actually correct about slavery. African slaves sold to Europeans were Africans captured by other Africans and sold to them for profit.  In fact Most Europeans never ventured into the Continent at all during the height of slavery. The reason for this was that they couldn't. Why? Simple; Malaria. It was lethal to Europeans who had no natural immunity to it, whereas the Africans had evolved alongside it, and were quasi-immune. This also made African slaves preferable to Native Americans slaves in Southern America.Basically Europeans bought slaves from the coasts, then departed. They did not go on slave-hunts in the African interior. They'd have died. Quinine was no discovered when this was going on.

To get back on point, the Masai tribe were slavers. That was their entire mo, and they went on slaving long after slavery was abolished by colonial powers such as Britain and America. Most African tribes practised slavery. It was a convenient and profitable way of getting rid of one's enemies, and the weak enslaved the strong. Africa was ruled by Africans during the height of slavery. Europe had no dominion in Africa during this time, and it was Africans who protected the domestic slaving industry in Africa, as a matter of pure economics. Europeans were not permitted to slave in Africa, even if they could have survived doing it. The only people who really participated in slave-hunts were the Portuguese, who transported far more Africans to Brazil than were ever transported to America. If you see a black person in Brazil, they are almost certainly descended from slaves.

In America, there were thousands of black commercial slave-sellers who sold African slaves. In fact it's estimated that at least a third of free blacks in New Orleans were owners of African slaves, and fought for the confederates during the civil war.
