    Tom could literally go blind from that eye poke. UFC needs to really address this issue.

    Oddly enough the eye he was holding after the poke/stoppage was the eye that hardly got poked at all, the knuckle deep eye was fine, tom just worried and quit whilst the had the chance.

    Both of his eyes got poked, he didn’t “quit”.

    Nah, the eye he's crying about hardly got poked at all. Watch the slow mo, a finger doesn't go into that eye. It just catches his eyelid a bit!
    He quit.

    You are a silly goose. "just catches his eyelid a bit" Clear as day that the fingers pushes heavily on the eyes. A thin layer of skin wont protect the eye from so much force.

    How many of you guys follow Napoleon Blownapart? I find his work fascinating, and he just dropped another banger.

    What do you guys think about the Factory X situation and the growing talk of fight-fixing in MMA?

    The gym denies being raided, but there are reports of FBI interviews and data collection after the suspicious betting patterns in Dulgarian vs. Del Valle. Honestly, it’s getting harder to ignore how often this kind of thing is popping up.
    Do you think these are isolated cases or signs of a deeper problem in the sport? And how much damage could this do to the UFC’s credibility if it keeps happening?

    This guy makes a pretty convincing argument that there is an issue with fight fixing in the UFC.
    To me it seems like one organization is behind it, rather than it being a large scale issue. Then again a lot of the older fans are saying that similar things have happened throughout the sports history, so who knows.
