Move this if you like, but it's not like anything better is going on.

Tonight, Greg Hardy, "The Prince of War" (seriously), will fight Maurice Greene, "The Crochet Boss" (also seriously). Heavyweight bout, third on the main card, Hardy the heavy favorite.

It's unclear what the UFC wants to do with Hardy at this point - they've hardly given him a marquee matchup here - but losing this one would be a major career stall for Greg.

First round: Greg flies instantly into an ultra-powerful flurry, nearly knocks Greene out standing up...Greene recovers, tries to clinch to survive, Hardy takes him to the ground and stays in his guard, delivering some nasty ground & pound. Ref (Dean) constantly watching Hardy for keeping his fingers in Greene's eyes. With two minutes left, Hardy more or less lets him up and they finish the round on their feet - cagy, but with Hardy getting the better of it. Could be a 10-8 round for Greg.

Second round: Hardy with the quick knockdown, keeps the blows coming at a prone Greene. Greene struggles desperately but Dean stops the fight, to Greene's protest.

Not a close one. Greene was barely in the fight and Hardy's striking was the best it's ever looked.

Hardy defeated by TKO in round two. Greg had a 10-9 first round, winning the striking battle and rattling Tybura. Tybura came out considerably more collected in the second, landing his shots and barely taking any. With less than two minutes left, Tybura sensed that Hardy was starting to gas out and went for the takedown. Once Greg was on his back, he had no plan and was barely defending himself. He was hoping to wait out the clock, but Tybura's ground and pound broke him down and the fight got stopped.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
