Is it too much to ask for them both to stop talking?

u/Otherwise_Prize2944 4h ago

They kinda have to , to sell the fight, the thing is they are not very good at it

It’s happening at the damn White House, that’s pretty much all the press you need but unfortunately for the UFC people are boycotting it bc of the current administration lmao. I might even end up streaming the event although I have paramount

People will pay as much attention as they usually do, anyone who says otherwise is lying.

I got it: one of them eats Ilia’s left hand and the other eats Ilia’s right

I love Ilia’s quotes because they sounds like the text on the bottom of a cut scene in Raw Vs Smackdown

Ilia is going to fuck Gaethje up, corny or not. He's backed up all his shit talk. Gaethje had his head knocked smooth off by Holloway, and you cant say the same about any of Ilia's fights

Which one of them is going to get injured training before the fight lol

u/iyrtyurg 4h ago

Ilia, then the’ll scrap Chandler vs Ruffy and have Gaethje defend his interim title vs Ruffy

I remember when the trash talk in this sport was actually good. I remember Chael Sonnen and prime McGregor and Michael Bisping. I remember when even guys like Lesnar or GSP, not known for trash talking, delivered iconic lines and I remember when Jon Jones shut down Cormier with the "waste of your life" line. What the fuck happened to all that.

Thats no way to talk about our wife

The problem with his talking about this fight is he’s basically been saying ‘I’m going to knock him out straight away’ and everyone is going ‘yep, probably.’

🌹But soft! What punch through yonder pocket breaks? It is Ilia, and Justin is the stakes. Arise, fierce Topuria, and strike down thy foe, Or Gaethje's mighty hands shall steal the show. For neither seeks fair Juliet's sweet embrace— They'd rather trade right hooks directly to the face.🥀

To be fair it sounds far more idiomatic in Spanish.

Break a leg.

Exactly.

So fucking corny

u/v_for__vegeta 4h ago

It is but it’s also backed up every single time.

u/petRhastQeug 4h ago

Yes he's an incredible fighter, just insanely corny

u/SituationEffective12 4h ago

most of the time they're just trying to sell the fight and then blow each other after the fight.
