UFC

LOS ANGELES – Joshua Van entered UFC 331 as the lone champion on the card but not as the highest paid in disclosed earnings. That distinction went to his opponent, Alexandre Pantoja.

The California State Athletic Commission released a full list of disclosed payouts to MMA Junkie before Saturday's event at Crypto.com Arena. According to the payoff sheet, Pantoja was to be paid a flat $650,000, with Van coming in second at a flat $500,000. Van put his flyweight title on the line in a rematch with Pantoja that headlined UFC 331.

In the co-main event, lightweight top contender Arman Tsarukyan was set to earn a flat $350,000. His opponent, Mauricio Ruffy, fought on a show-win deal of $110,000 to show and $110,000 if victorious.

It's worth noting the figures do not include performance nor discretionary bonuses, nor do they include letters of agreement, also known as "side letters," that are used by the promotion, typically when dealing with high-profile athletes or other special cases.

Last night was one of best all around UFC cards I've seen! So much on the line for so many fighters.

I stood up and clapped when that rapist got KO'ed!! The most satisfying KO I think I've ever seen!

Then for that shithead to leave early like the classless turd he is just shows what a POS of shit he is.

Fuck him and Jon Jones' woman beating ass!! They are made for each other.
 
Khamzat, streamer Neon, and fuckable influencer Nina Drama.





:roflmao3:

to expand on that, Khamzat has super close ties to the Chechen Dictator Kadyrov and spends a lot of time there in Grozny supposedly taking kidnapping a 16-17 yr old girl out there to take as his 2nd wife.

Neon is just 1 of these weirdo racist streamers from what i've heard

And the word on Nina Drama was one of many chicks doing modeling gigs for Playboy etc. but has now come up as Dana White's mistress so she's plugged into the whole TKO orbit and is now paid more than most fighters on UFC roster

That's crazy re: Khamzat. Damn.

Regarding Neon ... yeah ... he's a piece of shit.

Regarding Nina Drama ... yes ... her Playboy content is online. Very mild stuff from back in the 2010s. Looks good. Apparently her video guy / videographer is her husband, so it's weird watching her couple up with Arman this past year. Husband's seemingly a cuck of sorts, and apparently Arman's married with kids.

As for the friendship with Arman and Khamzat ... they train together here and there at Santo Studios in California. That gym / warehouse also does the Jaxxon podcast with Bear Degidio, Michael Bisping, and TJ Dillashaw. In previous years Rampage Jackson & Luke Rockhold were involved with more co-hosting.

Arman and Khamzat also do a fair bit of training with Sam Calavitta and company. He's trained the likes of Dillashaw, Cub Swanson, Aaron Pico and many more. Dillashaw was saying on a recent podcast that Arman's cardio / endurance is top-notch. Regularly scoring elite levels there. Calavitta gets featured in vlogs, and on UFC Countdowns & Embeddeds. Arman's also been in Khamzat's corner previously. More info on Calavitta below ...

Gevorg "Giorgio" Petrosyan (Armenian: Գևորգ Պետրոսյան; born December 10, 1985) is an Armenian-Italian former kickboxer who competed in the middleweight division. Nicknamed "The Doctor", he is noted for supreme technical skills, ringsmanship, and defensive prowess which has seen him defeat some of the best strikers in the world while taking little damage.He is widely regarded as one of the greatest kickboxers of all time.


After immigrating to Italy from Armenia at thirteen years old, Petrosyan began his professional career as a Muay Thai fighter at sixteen, starting out as a -54 kg/119 lb bantamweight before moving up through the weight classes and settling at the -70 kg/154 lb middleweight division, taking numerous titles along the way. Following a decision loss to Nonthanan Por. Pramuk at Lumpinee Stadium in January 2007, he went on a six-year, forty-two fight undefeated streak considered to be one of the most dominant reigns in the history of the sport which was eventually ended by Andy Ristie at Glory 12: New York in November 2013.


His switch to kickboxing rules and subsequent ascent began in 2008 when he began competing for It's Showtime and K-1, and he established himself as the world's top middleweight with two consecutive K-1 World MAX World Championship Tournament Championships in 2009 and 2010. He then joined Glory in 2012 following It's Showtime and K-1's demise and further cemented his place as the elite -70 kg/154 lb kickboxer by winning the Glory 2012 Lightweight Slam tournament.











 
I'm not really into MMA but I find myself randomly rewatching this video every couple months.



Whenever I'm bored or need a boost, that video always seems to be in my feed.





I am glad Nunes is coming back.


She's no joke ... and it will be interesting to see how she matches up with Harrison. Formerly at the same gym (ATT) years back. Not sure the extent of them being training partners though, considering they could potentially match up one day.
