Karyn you looked great in that blue outfit
Isn't water loading really bad? I know ONE FC does some sort of test to ensure they aren't cutting too much water
Love you Karyn!!!!!
Gooo Jouban!!
BK isn't to hard to watch.
lucas w37 for you, but majority of mma fans have been saying the cuts are too much for them
The podcast name should be karyn and alan talking sense
Karyn "I'm married to a white guy" Bryant
8:33 Ring Rust in tennis should be called Court Corrosion.
Let the perf of the night be with you, Alan!
What is all this talk about damage absorbed in bare knuckle boxing, like mma is a safe sport where nobody gets beat up! Who are we kidding?
I just started a mma channel call 2 minute mma picks. Check it out if you wish
Looked like a Ferguson fight to me.
KB congrats on the 2-love win… first singles none the less!AJ, can't wait to watch you smash this dude. Also, KB is right, that legit looks like dehydrated pee.I think BKFC is interesting. I think it's harder to watch becasue of the cuts. I know people say that people say fighting with no wraps means you can't hit as hard, but I think I've heard the fighters say they swing just as hard as they do with gloves, but just not as often, so I don't know. I can't lie that I'm lowkey hyped for Paulie vs Artem though, whenever it is. I agree though, for his sake I hope it's not in two months, that's ridiculous.

What is Jouban talking about? The scar tissue damage in bare knuckle is wayyy less significant than the brain damage guys take in MMA and Boxing.
The model returns!
don't talk about bareknuckle here anymore. it's too brutal. don't give it any publicity, it's taking the sport back to the bloodsport era. too barbaric. I think Alan would agree.
Bare knuckle fighting/boxing isn't MMA though. It's two different sports. It's actually closer to boxing than MMA, but still not quite boxing. I'm not sure how it would set back MMA at all though.
Jouban hit it right on the nail. Some people might say oh they're fighters like Jouban said, so what? They fight to entertain us yes but they're human beings with a brain that doesn't need to take unnecessary beatings for the sake of empathetic casuals. Also some people are claiming that bare knuckle is less dangerous then fighting with gloves. I have no words for people of that level of stupidity. Combat sports especially mma has come a long way. It didn't reach a high point in the UFC getting the ESPN deal just for some barbaric underground type of fighting to take combat sports 5 steps back. It's an abomination and it's not going to blow up like the BKFC thinks they are. It's too street like for it to go main stream, sorry. No top fighter will join, only guys on their way out, trying to go out with a bang like Jouban said. And I hope it stays that way. That kind of barbaric kind of fighting has no place in combat sports.
Can you hit harder with or without the glove? Add in the hand wraps and your hands are significantly more durable. You can throw much more ruthlessly too. Bare you have to land correctly or your hands will look like artems
what ever became of the high old guy? i miss pete.
