So, this is a UFC-related thread aimed to MARKET some fighters. It is NOT BASHING, it is based on pure observation.


This thread is all in good fun and meant to highlight UFC fighters with humor and admiration. None of this is meant as disrespect or criticism toward any athlete. These are light-hearted observations and jokes inspired by the personalities and names that make the sport so entertaining. MMA fans know that behind every joke there’s respect for the grind, the courage, and the talent it takes to step into the Octagon.


If you consider it should go to Lightweights, do it do it now.


  1. Johnny Walker.
    It is more than obvious his father liked whiskey. Probably is the Brazilian correspondent of Strickland's father. His family name is Souza btw.
    Like this craziness!
  2. Tom Aspinall.
    Probably his mother didn't like Aspinall, so the name sounds more like Thomas Pinall.
    Like the fact that we might have a longer-time champ at HW!
  3. Ronda Rousey.
    Probably she was perfectly round as a baby.
    Like her, she inspired a lot of girls going alpha.
  4. Jon Jones.
    I think his parents wanted to give him only one name. One. Same for surname and first name. Jon. So basically he is John of John.
  5. Alexander Volkanovski.
    Of course his parents wanted a Macedonian hero name. Don’t kill me Greeks.
  6. Same letter obsession.
    Diaz father obsessed with N… Nick-Nate.
    Rua father with M… Mauricio-Murilo.
    Gracies with R… it’s a cult… Rickson-Royce-Ralph-Royler-Roger-Rener. Anything but not Rogan.
  7. Unwanted second kid, naming the same.
    Gilbert and Herbert Burns… in “Brazilian” sounding similar. Don’t kill me Portuguese.
 
Luffy is back?!?

It's definitely Luffy. He has an insatiable need to start new threads and get any sort of attention.
 
Anyway its a good reminderd about UL ,i tottaly forgot about him.
He was all around the forums
Why was he eliminated anyone knows
There was also that memeber with animated gif avatar of some video game character i think smoking ciguar, was it kone ,or something like that
 
"Gilbert and Herbert Burns… in “Brazilian” sounding similar. Don’t kill me Portuguese."

Anybody knows why the heck are these guys "Burns"? They look straight from your run of the mill favela, normal brazilian guys, but this surname is non existent in Brazil. I tried to find information about it before, but no luck. Only two possible explanations, are either these guys momma got knocked up by a gringo or some Johnny/Walter Walker situation, where the dad was a crazy mofo and started naming names out of his ass.
