The recent Big John McCarthy episode of The Joe Rogan Experience is a fascinating listen if you care about the sport. A hyper-knowledgeable deep dive into the history of the UFC that goes into detail about how rules were formed and how the sport gained legitimacy.

SO Max Holloway has been pulled from UFC 226 with concussion type symptoms. Apparently he's in the ER having tests and junk done

Lame. Who did you favor in that one? They're two of the most dangerous men the UFC has ever seen. Extremely high workrates and cardio. I think Max would have ground out a decision, but T-City could get the stoppage over just about anyone at the rate he's going.

Yeah - I didn't see an easy favourite in that match up. Brian's pretty dangerous as is Max

I guess Cromier has the record and career to prove me wrong, but he's always looked doughy and out of shape.

Just hold on. I get that people don't like me right now and like to paint me as a villain for whatever reason. But it's crazy to attribute everything negative to me. Verb is the one that makes the big deal about BMI and is unceasingly cruel to people that he sees as being overweight. As a matter of fact, I don't think anyone has pushed back against his doing that more than I have, which is one of the reasons verb hates me. So, this was BS, rangi
