Holm elbows Rousey in this week's Mr R Special.

None of the ESOPers wanted to partake in Saturday's pugilism (arrive earlier P & L!), so I taxied to the local Ale House - great place to take in the action. 

Wish we were meeting in Orlando again this weekend so we could watch the Cowboy vs. Dos Anjos brawl at the Amway Center. Go Cerrone!!!

A pugilistic early Xmas present from Uncle Dana: fights tomorrow and Saturday night. You'll, alas, have to pay for Saturday's main card (unless you truck it over here and watch in my basement - please bring Kamchatka, thanks!).

Rose Namajunas, today's Mr R special, will fight last Monday's Mr. R special, Paige Vanzant at UFC Fight Night on Thursday, December 10 (see there's a method to the scrawl-selection madness - on occasion, lol).

BTW:  if you're one of the good people of the world, you should be rooting for Clev-burg to beat the Bad Browns tonight. Go Clev-burg!!!!

Today's Mr. R. Special is (are?) Octagon Girls Red Dela Cruz and Arianny Celeste. Hung out with the ESOPers, Will, JA, Fiene, Dr. J, Rich, Fully, Deana, D-Rock and Natasha last week in Vegas where Rousey's pre-fight line was -2000; Holm +1000 (in other words, one needed to bet 2k on Rousey to win 100 and a 100 bet on Holm won you 1000). Holm's shocking KO proved, once again, why MMA is such an exciting, unpredictable sport. BTW, I didn't bet, but would have put money on Rousey (I am mr loser, right?)

Saw Mr. R. and he asked, rightly so, what's been up with the lack of posting/Mr. R. specials? So, here's this week's scrawl:  Nutrishop's athlete (model?) Stephanie Johnson.

Robbie Lawler pencil drawing

Lawler v. McDonald was a ridiculous fight.  Both guys too tough for their own good, took fights (years?) off their careers.  Should have been the headliner.

Jonna Jedrzejczyk pencil drawing

Checked the spelling of her last name three times and I'm still unsure it's correct.  Have a great weekend and enjoy the fights.

Matt Mitrione pencil drawing

The only thing more amazing than all the fantastic fights on Saturday's UFC card is the Cavs more than improbable run to the NBA championship.  Go Cavs!!!!!

Anthony Johnson pencil

Emilia Clarke pencil

Games of Thrones has been great recently.  Clarke also playing Sarah Conner in new Terminator movie.  Not sure how she could get more bad ass.

Luke Rockhold pencil drawing

Thought Saturday's fights started at 10 pm, flipped on the TV and watched Rockhold get his hand raised beside a bloody, beaten Machida.  The good news:  UFC events are re-broadcast more than Seinfeld episodes.

Saturday's UFC was a great illustration of how unpredictable MMA fights are.  Dos Anjos complete and utter domination of Pettis was the most surprising championship bout result since Dillashaw vs. Barao.

Mary Jane Amazing Spider-man drawing

Reading Slott and Ramos' run on Amazing Spider-Man - it's so much fun.  Loved the Spider Island story where both JJJ and MJ (and everyone else in NYC) get Spidey powers.  Sure, everyone rightly hates the One-More-Day reboot, but it's lead to some great, entertaining stories from Slott.  He gets that Spider-Man is about Peter Parker as much as it's about the superhero.

Me and Scott went to the Arnold MMA fights Friday in Columbus.  Six of eight brawls on the card were amateurs.  Always fun watching live fights, but there's something wrong with everyone making money off the event, except the guys and gals inside the cage getting their brains and bodies beat to a pulp.
