Frankie Edgar to Conor McGregor: 'If he's got balls, he'll pick me'

[Sweets]

so getting into a pissing contest with some noob on how much sports you watch is going to make this debate any better or more engaging? should I be coming back with how many sports I watch?

tell me, what in that mess of text you call an "argument" would you call meaningful?

I'll give you an example. Being a stone mason will make it easier to understand brick laying, that's a fairly obvious statement ye? Well spending a lifetime obsessed with all sports, makes it easier to understand a new one, ergo your earlier new fan jibe is shaky at best. Also I do apologise for my awkward use of language I'm aware of it but sometimes don't take the time to clarify.

Q @Qat & @Sweets

no hard feelings guys! its just a move in a fight being debated on the internet.

I may be wrong, you may be wrong. it doesnt matter. we all need to enhance our calm

 

[Psychotropic Wanderlust]

I think we all agree it would be a good fight regardless.

I hate to be that guy (I LOVE to be that guy) but I think Conor gets smoked, and I am in no way a Frankie fan.

@Psychotropic Wanderlust I'm not the one calling it a sweep that was luke thomas on the monday morning analyst.

okay so you do want to talk nonsense lol. I never though WATCHING a sport made you some guru.

I have been doing BJJ for 5 years on and off (took 2 years off in between)

I played soccer from ages 5 - 20. I played competitively. I was playing alongside Owen Hargraves before he moved to england. I chose to do engineering instead of soccer for a full time career as it would probably pay off better. (chances of getting good money from soccer in north america was non-existant unless you were the top of the pool)

I watch NBA EVERY NIGHT. literally every night. last night I watched 2 games...neither had a team I cheer for.

I had season tickets to the CFL team in my old city for 13 years.

I play baseball, and have for the last 10 years. I also watch too much baseball with my wife

I watch MMA and have for the last 12 years. been to 14 live UFC's.

I go to march madness and have for the last 6 years. its a custom my wife and I do.



so again....tell me how your sporting knowledge helps you in any terms???? but my sporting knowledge doesnt help me????

If you can't see the correlation between understanding one type of athleticism and understanding another I don't know what to tell you. No hard feelings but good luck enjoy you're evening.

I was playing alongside Owen Hargraves before he moved to england.

He went to Germany and then to England.

But I am impressed...Would love to have a kick about one day...I played with Jamie Carragher (Liverpool) Alan Rogers (Nottingham forest Captain) For my town...Before I started smoking marijuana and drinking and thinking I was Pablo fucking Escobar.

I regret nothing.

 

[KWingJitsu]

I didn't see the argument over a sweep. Lol.

Yes he was swept. Classic X Guard sweep. Let's not pretend it didn't happen.
It worked because he prevented Nate's defense by grabbing his right ankle so he could not base out. = sweep.

you are the one who started on with your "sports knowledge" man. not me. if you cant see the corellation that not just you watches sports then I dont know what to tell you.

Nah man, you calling me words that I'm the farthest from and stuff, don't like it and won't forget it. Lame tactics I don't respect.
Have a respectful debate like Sweets and I did, and we can talk. I think I tried with you. So whatever. It's over.

@Psychotropic Wanderlust I'm not the one calling it a sweep that was luke thomas on the monday morning analyst.

+ Rener + Firas. 3 already. And we didn't even try. Not that it matters really what its called.

lol! ya, there was a couple other guys on our team that were good but he was STAND OUT good. I was happy just to be playing on that team haha. there arent many canadians that were very good at that age.

Jamie Carragher is one of my favorites.

you will never walk alone!

STEVE GERARD, GERARD...HE SCORES FROM THE 40 YARD!

so have hard feelings, I dont give a shit. I am having a respectful conversation about how you are wrong to call it a sweep.

I am not pretending. because it wasnt a sweep.

I didn't say it was just me, anyone who watches or coaches multiple sports with keen interest is in a very good position to get a decent working knowledge of another. I've been obsessed for three years for instance I watched that Monday morning analyst twice, it will be on in the background several more times this week same with 5 rounds today, heavy hands, all of them.

The only reason I mention any of this is because you tried attacking my point by casting noob assertions, a demonstrably unsound proposition.

 

[Qat]

First of all, and I say this like the 10th time now, I don't care how you call it. Don't pretend that I do. How is it a respectful conversation if you don't even care about what my stance is?
I have the clear feeling that you don't even know who says what here, and you just mix everyone that is arguing 'against' you together. That is your problem though, not mine.

Second of all, its not respectful to call me names that clearly I am not. So you are wrong again about your respectful conversation.

then why are you still here if you arent conversing about the topic at hand? go to another thread homie.

 

[1372]

If I had mod powers this thread would be over.

It's going nowhere from here....Let it die guys ffs.

I am sorry I called you a noob. but you are. and that's okay. proving you watch other sports obsessively doesnt make you less of a noob though my friend.

I tend to agree. But real talk, I got lots of love for everyone. And patience. The patience part really helps.

 

[Qat]

Why am I still here? Because you tagged me and brought me back.

And we did argue about related things.
But yeah, it was pretty clear that it leads to nothing at some point, I stopped then as well.

And sure, rainbow me all you want. Don't cry that I won't accept your 'its all good'-thingy. Its not a big deal.

 

[check it]

so is now a good time to remind @Sweets to change his name to "dey don't tap lyke i tap" . partly because of the ineffective" sweep," but mostly because conor truly has the best tap in the history of the UFC.

thanks @jason73 for the idea.

I only tagged you to say "no hard feelings". nothing more. you came back arguing like a bitch. if you wish to continue I got all night man.

In time maybe knowledge not so much.
