Joshua Van beat the life out of Alexandre Pantoja for the better part of 25 minutes at UFC 331
He even managed to stay safe on the floor with simple guard play
Here is how Van did it and the openings he's leaving on the floor
every few years there is a crafty Brazilian fighter who is skilled enough to beat anyone on the right night but not flashy nor fluent in english enough to get their flowers from matchmakers or fans
Assunção, Formiga, and now Barcelos
gotta appreciate them while they're around
Rosas jabs
Barcelos slips it to pick up a head outside single and run to a rear body lock
Rosas hinges to put his weight forward
Barcelonas steps past Rosas
Rosas stands up and turns to face him
that makes his foot light enough for Barcelos to sweep it
feel horrible for Barcelos
he was beating up a prospect nearly 15 years younger before his body gave out on him
worst possible situation all around
sick scrambling
miller is running shields around to lift him
shields hooks miller's leg to stop the mat return
miller runs shields down to his hands to take his back
shields grabs miller's foot on the way down to keep miller's hips down so shields can vault to the other side
AI safety and doomerism is closer to sci fi & fantasy than computer science research
I was asked, "How did you come up with the idea of summoning devils into a computer?"However, back in 1985 when I wrote Megami Tensei, the similarities between computer theory and magical theory were already being discussed on BBS networks and in magazines. It was a popular thinking thought among the otaku of that era, and I resonated with it deeply. To be a bit more specific...
which comes first
OF to politics or politics to OF?
Dems are in DISARRAY.
An Iranian-American student asks Abdul El-Sayed to DENOUNCE Iranian terrorist regime and he couldnβt bring himself to do it.
Hasan Piker promoted political violence against Chuck Schumer.
Kamala Harris sits through a roundtable about birthing persons and nods along.
I discuss a seven-step plan to end the Iran war - NOW - not after the election.
Watch π
jay hops over kevin's leg and slides to leg drag
then he pushes it down to mount him
kevin props up on his elbow to escape
jay wrist rides to flatten him out
jay uses the wrist ride to turn kevin away, grab head and arm control, and finish the inverted darce on the back
inverted darce
reverse darce
whatever who cares still cool

the path to a life well lived is getting a good job and getting out of it as fast you can afford to
IMO βpost-economicβ isnβt about one number, or being βrichβ
Itβs about the relationship between what you have and what you want.
A close friend retired in his 30s after a decade at FAANG. He lives on $40k a year in NYC and does everything he wants to do.
Heβs post-economic!

A special guest appearance by @OpenNoteGrapple today at The MMA Draw regarding many things he has learned since opening up a wildly successful BJJ gym in Austin, Texas.
William also touches on an interesting taboo: is no gi training wrecking BJJ culture?

Fight To Win made everyone wear masks
β¦unless you were competing
β¦or warming up in the warm up zone
β¦or sitting at your table in the audience
But if you were NOT you had better wear a mask
