do you ever notice how shitty the captions are on mma news site pictures?

they seem to either seemingly insert a completely irrelevant paragraph into the article, explaining in detail what is pictured, where and when.

or on the other hand you might be looking at an article on two fighters you're unsure of, it would be nice to confirm in your mind what they look like. instead you get CREDIT ZUFFA LLC JOSH HEDGES or some frustrating shit like that.
heres a perfect example

the caption even tells you the colour of the gloves worn by a non-pictured opponent. what kind of asleep-at-wheel shit-for-brains editor lets this go on.

when a good looking man refuses to put on a shirt, there's Ricardo Arona

when a man punches like an 8-year old girl, but throws a low kick that could snap a lamppost, there is Ricardo Arona

when a man's reaction to danger is to stand bolt upright with his chin exposed, there is Ricardo Arona

you see my friends, he is around us everywhere. also the beach, have you checked the beach?

im a fan of him as an entertainer. and have actually become a fan of his older brother Logan as a human. he's a decent dude

jake probably will be too, he's just got a little maturing to do over the next few years (he doesnt seem as sharp as Logan though. so there's that)
havent listened to this yet, but figured some of yall might agree with me that logan has actually become a chill dude

Anthony Smith is very likable IMO. He is always game but doesn’t get into the dramatics. I’d like to see him against both of these guys. Ankalaev makes more sense from a divisional rankings standpoint, but Craig-Smith would be a fun scrap anywhere it goes.

Speaking of psychopaths in MMA, I have no training in psychology, but Jon Jones is the only high profile champion or fighter that I am convinced is a genuine, legitimate psychopath. Someone whose brain simply does not have the capacity to experience the emotions of fear or guilt or remorse or shame. As I understand the condition - which is admittedly very much at a layman's level - he seems to show every major sign very clearly.

Which year was it that Dana proclaimed the "year of the superfight" ?

Was it 2012 or later?
on the internet I found

Fight fans had cause for serious eye-rolling back in January, when UFC play-by-play man Mike Goldberg kicked off the organization’s first pay-per-view of 2013 by proclaiming this would be the “year of the superfight” inside the Octagon.
But I mean specifically Dana.
Hateful-Dana, before today's easygoing Dana
