still not exactly happy about it, but whatever takes place between Jews and Muslims, Christians can just sit it out.
Except hundreds of thousands or millions of middle Eastern Christians will be slaughtered and no one will say a peep about it... Just like what happenned in Syria, British Palestine, Iraq, Lebanon, etc., and just like what is happening in Ukraine.

re: Jon Jones retires before facing Aspinall

Jon fought 24 times in his UFC career.... In 17 yrs with the promotion. He was basically fighting a little over once per year on average and most of his activity occurred in his first 7-8 yrs with the UFC.
After he lost to Reyes he really started fighting about once every 2-3 yrs. He also really started ducking almost anyone who was near his size and especially younger than him unless they were a trash can like Anthony Smith, who took l him 5 rds to a decision.
And for anyone saying Jones was the biggest draw for the company behind Connor, that's not true in the slightest. Jones was a an average at best PPV draw.
You can easily name 10 fighters with better draw than him at their peak.
Connor, Rousey, Masvidal, Poatan, Nick and Nate Diaz, GSP, Chuck Liddell, Brock Lesnar, Khabib, and Spider Silva. Dustin and Gathje are also better draws.

Aspinal's final quip to Jones for ducking him:
"I retired you without even having to fight you..."
Pretty cold. Good riddance. Jones held up the division for 2 yrs.
Now get Tom vs Vookov for the title in November at MSG, then Poatan vs Tom in April.
Bring back Francis after that and winner fights him at MSG in November 2026.
There, I just made the UFC HW division awesome again.

I have to assume Clancy Brown will at least make a cameo. I'd have him as a NYC veteran police captain to makes an appearance on the crime scene after Wrestlemania and he examines what the hell caused some German guy to get his head cut off in a parking lot.
Pop in for 2 mins, have someone call him captain and mention his kids in the exposition so everyone knows he is not one of the immortals. Theaters would go batshit if he comes on screen. He could even says some really toned down line. ".... Well, I guess it's better to burn out than fade away, huh."and this guy Definatly burned himself tonight.
I also really hope they can somehow re-use Michale Kamen's score. It's epically classic.

re: News report: Mizzou spent $31M on NIL in past year: $10M last month

And that’s just what the university paid. That isn’t including what individual donors/companies give to NIL which is a lot. Unless mizzou runs their dept differently where all money is funneled through them and they give it out directly
If you read the entire article is lays out how and why the newspaper was able to get these records. It's because Mizzou runs their NIL records through their Ath dept, and not solely via a third party group.

Mizzou spent $31.7 million on NIL for athletes in last year, records show
By Eli Hoff, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
The University of Missouri athletics department has spent more than $31 million on name, image and likeness compensation for its athletes during the past year, according to financial records.
Mizzou’s NIL spending reflects the university’s push to compete in football and men’s basketball under the terms of a modern college sports landscape that has spawned a lucrative market for athletes.
The records show that nearly two-thirds of the money in 2024 went to football players and about a fourth to men’s basketball. The remainder was split among baseball, women’s basketball and lower-profile programs.
MU’s spending in the past month alone shows how the school has tried to take advantage of a disruption in the NIL market, distributing an influx of cash to athletes before the landmark House v. NCAA settlement takes effect July 1 and imposes a de facto salary cap.
MU was billed more than $31.7 million by Every True Tiger from July 1, 2024, to date, a span that roughly aligns with both a sports and fiscal year. The number of athletes receiving NIL benefits varied month to month, ranging from 155 to 65, with an average of 125.
The $31.7 million tally includes a 2024 football season in which the Tigers went 10-3 and a men’s basketball campaign that saw Mizzou return to the NCAA Tournament. It also includes spending on transfers for both teams’ upcoming seasons.
Because NIL nationwide is so murky, it’s not possible to compare Missouri’s spending with that of similar universities, whose figures are not available or have not been reported.
As such, Mizzou’s NIL operation will look different moving forward.
Spending flurry before July 1
Of the roughly $31.7 million spent on NIL in the last year, nearly $10.3 million came earlier this month — just weeks ahead of the House settlement’s effective date.
Mizzou has sent just shy of $25
In 2024, Mizzou sent about $12.4 million to Every True Tiger. A little less than $8 million, or 64.3%, went to football. Men’s basketball received $2.9 million, or 23.5%.
Baseball received $488,500, or 3.9%. Women’s basketball received $348,100 or 2.8%.
Softball (1.5%), wrestling (1.2%) and track and field (1.1%) were the only other programs to receive more than 1% of the total spending. Gymnastics received 0.8%, volleyball received 0.3%, golf and soccer received 0.2%, and tennis received just $10,000 — less than 0.1%.
Here is a breakdown of Mizzou’s NIL spending by month:
• Sept. 2023 — $881,446 (Every True Tiger invoice total)
• Oct. 2023 — $789,046
• Nov. 2023 — $825,846
• Dec. 2023 — $848,313
• Jan. 2024 — $767,584
• Feb. 2024 — $824,700
• March 2024 — $754,200
• April 2024 — $662,233
• May 2024 — $991,250
• June 2024 — $1,619,400
• July 2024 — $940,900
• Aug. 2024 — $876,900
• Sept. 2024 — $1,871,900
• Oct. 2024 — $902,400
