It's not like he ever said that before he started losing or anything... right?

He brought up being a brawler but this "don't care if I win" narrative wasn't used to my recollection.
I think he figured he would beat the best of the best in the UFC because of all his success elsewhere.
That's why you play the games...
Easier said than done.
He's just not a good enough fighter.

Nope he did say it multiple times, he said that he was gonna lose eventually but he didn't mind.

Dont worry about Gaethje. Dude is going to be ESPN or NBC's exclusive Television Champion and will only fight brawlers like himself.

Cowboy vs Yves Edwards for UFC Singapore.

Whole card is filled with pointless match-ups.

Oh shit, Leon Edwards? I just saw the last name and assumed Yves was still banging around for some reason.

Who the fuck is Leon?

EDIT

Huh, has a half decent record I suppose.

ESPN/NBC exclusive Television Championship fights should be under different rules too.

3 rounds max
Challenger needs to win by KO or sub
If fights go the distance, TV Champ retains belt

Guys like Gathje, Diaz Bros, Black Beast, would he great TV Champs.

Went from being a fan to a hater pretty fucking quickly, gave her a pass after the first loss, but yeah, fuck her.

It wasn't that surprising of a turn. She came off terribly in that season of TUF she coached, and was equally awful in the lead up to the first Rose fight. She believes her own bullshit.

JJ lost me as a fan when she started talking about Rose's mental health.

She's still a great fighter but she needs to fuck off for a while.

Ronda talked about killing herself and joined a fake combat league so she could make sure she gets her wins in.

Then she refused to talk to anyone that wasn't Ellen or Hollywood linked with her agency, had the lead annoucer fired, and 2 years later refuses to even recognize she did MMA.

She's the worst loser of all time.

Part of the reason Goldberg was let go was Ronda did not like the way she was represented by him.

And seeing that the UFC owners were Rondas agents and they need her to come back they let him go.

Meltzer brought it up.

Well shit, that blows. Didn't know that. As if I needed another reason to dislike her.

I miss the guy, sort of. Goldberg was always good for a laugh. Anik doesn't say enough stupid shit.

Ronda / Goldberg beef is so weird.
Goldie seems like a dumb puppy or a slightly inappropriate drunk uncle.. how can you take that serious?

You got a link to an article or video? I need to see how she denies it.

Goldie: Something something she's a rock star!

Joe: It has nothing to do with her being a rock star! She's getting punched in the face!

Always cracks me up

I'm always surprised to see on twitter that there's a weigh-in going on, for some random event I didn't even know was happening.

He's still fighting.

Man I really like Kevin Lee but how you gonna talk about nutriotionists being bullshit and then miss weight.

Even if he wins and wins well that's gonna keep him behind Poirier.

Man, Lewis can be so sloppy with his striking. Any chance he can not get KOed by Ngannou?

Lewis is fucked. Ngannou is a faster and stronger version of him with a better chin. Just can't see any way Lewis wins.
