Global Fight League draft live thread.

Oleg Taktarov the 6 time UFC champion.

Not trying to be that guy, but this is boring and long.

It's almost like the people clamoring for Legends divisions and the people shitting on this and memeing Bellator after Shamrock/Royce 3 are not the same.

Shogun vs Lil Nog 3 should be enough proof that Legend Divisions are a terrible idea. Wand's Bellator fights too. It's depressing shit.

Wanderlei vs Rampage 4 was pretty good IMO. While there is debate on if Wandy should have been fighting in 2018, it was enough to get attention. This is why we're sitting here on a friday night watching the GFL draft lmao.

For every bad old guy fight, there's good ones (Fedor vs Mir, Fedor vs Sonnen, Romero vs Manhoef). Bad fights or stupid stoppages are going to happen whether fighters are young or old. The possibility of a bad fight is assumed to be accepted by the viewer in regard to any combat sport, really.

Also, let's be honest, the Shogun vs Lil Nog 3 matchmaking didn't even make sense. At that time, we should have got something like Anderson Silva vs Shogun instead.

Javier "Horse Trainer" Mendez not over-committing on the talent.

Why does JDS look so good?

Steroids, the answer is steroids

I'm honestly going to be pissed if there is a legit drug testing protocol in all of this lol.

I saw team Dubai had like 3 Russian sounding names I'd never heard of, expecting them to dominate in amazing fashion

[Unheralded Truth]

How does it work with coaches for these teams based on geography? Do the fighters need to go there for a camp with their team's coach?

I'm trying to understand this cluster fuck!

Goldberg has worse CTE than most of the fighters.

I don't think this is actually going to happen if I'm being honest.

I was literally just about to tag you and quote myself.

With a Goldie face for style points

 

[Hellowhosthat]

Now they're just going to reveal the entire rosters lol

 

[Ares Black]

I am confident there will be at least a few cards.


I am not at all confident about the long-term prospects of success unless they make some huge changes.
