when Dom tries to talk down an opponent and act intelligent, but lacks a firm grasp of English

[Mixed]

Cruz is an idiot. I like how he says his opponents are dumb when he in fact is the dumb one who tries so hard to appear smart constantly.

I was watching his interview on MMA hour and he misused another word with multiple syllables.

Ergo consolidate and liquidate and flagellate. Look at me I'm so smart and my name is Dominick Cruz.

Cruz is of average intelligence.

Only dumbasses believe Cruz is "intelligent".

lol You are saying he is intelligent

 

[KillingJoke]

Didn't realize they were so many intelligent people here on sherdog. The threads and posts on here don't suggest that at all. Good to know.

I'm sure most people consider him intelligent by comparison to his peers. He might not be that smart if he is walking around M.I.T. but compared to the Mike Perrys and Luke Rockholds of the world he comes off a hell of a lot smarter.

It's more likely that he misspoke than him not knowing the difference

Well neither word really fits. Consolidation or consolation are both awkward there.

"Looking over to his wife/friend/teammate for consolation"...

I guess it is a little funny when you dissect it. People use it this way all the time though.

'Reassurance' or something along those lines would probably fit better but I'll allow it lol

when you have the pretension but not basic grasp of English language or even a college education to back it up

A college degree is more impressive than a basic grasp of (the) English language.

Cruz making MMA fighters look bad is like watching a toddler ball out on his bike with training wheels.

GTFO with your reasonable assessment of the situation. We don't take kindly to reason 'round here

When TS tries to insult someone for lacking a grasp of English, and does it with poor English and without punctuation.

Cliffs: You suck TS.

exactly. dom has a better grasp of english than the vast majority of people out there, he is quite well-spoken. unlike TS who sounds borderline illiterate.

Attorneys moonlighting as shertards now? What is this world coming to?

And billing for my time here too!

Putting intelligent in quotes there suggests that you mean it ironically, which in turn makes your statement mean the exact opposite of what you intended it to mean.
