No, Of Course That UFC Guy Didn't Yell About "Not For Gay Jesus" On TV
Does “Go for Jesus, not for gay Jesus, people!” sound like a plausible, idiomatic form of religious trolling to you, or does it maybe seem like the sort of infantilized structure that’s easy to map onto a non-native speaker’s syntax and pronunciation? ...

Bellator To Pay More Old People To Fistfight In Public
On Friday night, two famous grandfathers fought in a mixed martial arts match on national television for money.

Why Are UFC Champions Hanging Out With An Accused Russian War Criminal?
Here is a delightful vignette: UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman doing his best impression of the lezginka, the national dance of the North Caucasus region of Russia, in the palace of Ramzan Kadyrov, head of the Chechen Republic. You can see Kadyrov in the video—he’s the short, bearded gentlem...

Bad Russian Wrestler Throws Slapping Fit, Starts Brawl
What you are watching is a brief portion of a freestyle wrestling match that took place at Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok, Russia.

Bayer Leverkusen Player And His Buddies Brawl With Own Club's Security
Yesterday, Emir Spahić's Bayer Leverkusen lost to Bayern Munich in the DFB Pokal. While doing interviews after the match, Spahić apparently witnessed some of his homies he'd brought to the stadium tussling with security. Because he's really 'bout that life, he ran over to join the scrap....

Don't Believe The Hype: Mayweather-Pacquiao Is Not Good Vs. Evil
The many failings of Floyd Mayweather to follow the basic rules on how to be a good human being are well documented.

The UFC, lately embarrassed by its fighters failing a lot of drug tests, has hired shitbag/former IRS agent Jeff Novitzky, best known as beloved baseball legend Barry Bonds’s persecutor, to be its “Vice President of Athlete Health and Performance.” This seems like a high-falutin’ and more than faint...

Russian Hockey Brawl Leaves Coach Shirtless And Triumphant
This dude right here—who seems to be feeling pretty good about the fact that he just exited a hockey brawl down a shirt, jacket, and tie—is named Andrei Razin, and he’s the head coach of a hockey team in Russia’s minor league. He ended up this way after scrapping with opposing head coach Alex Zhdahi...

Spring Breaker Starts Fight, Flees, Receives Karmic Comeuppance
It's hard to believe that the knob in this video, who embodies every spring break stereotype—neon tank top, bad sandals, dumb sunglasses, urging other bros to come at him while he backs away—is even real, but here we are. I won't spoil what happens, but get ready to wish you had been there to laugh ...

Here Are Some EPL Hooligans Brawling, Because That's What They Do Best
"OY, AN' WOT 'ID I 'EAR YOU SAY ABOUT ME MUM?!" one West Ham fan presumably asked the Sunderland fan across from him. Squaring up, the Sunderland hooligan probably said, "YOU 'EARD ME, MATE. ME AN' ME LADS GAVE OL' MUMSIE A GOOD BOFFIN', BUT YOU'RE GONNA LOOK EVEN WORSE THAN THAT OL' HAG WHEN WE'AH ...

What Happens To Enforcers When Hockey Uses Them Up?
More winter Friday nights than not through my first few years of high school, I was in my usual seat at the local arena, three or four rows up behind the home team's bench. On the ice, the Ontario Hockey League's Ottawa 67's, a group of—boys, really, aged 16 to 20. A handful of them would go on to...
