Literary gunslinger Eugene S. Robinson lends his “one”-of-a-“kind” “perspective” to UFC on Fox 22 and the righting of the hype hyper-loop vis a vis the Golden Twins 12 GAUGE PAIGE and her trusty sidekick SAGE. This plus Breen-born conspiracies concerning the sleeper status of GALL, a little family drama, why LHW has a terrifying troika that has to be considered before you take any Scotsmen in the division seriously and a special secret story to end all stories for boxing fans. And oh yeah: Jim Rome and rumors of Rome.
IN Round #284, KNUCKLE UP host and heavy hitter of the widest variety of shit EUGENE S. ROBINSON [with the “S” standing for “Stabby”], exults in the shut up moment after the put up fight that sees the golden and smiling faces of MMA 1 percenters PAIGE and SAGE become real fighters by doing the thing that real eventually all do: lose. Why this and why loss? Because sometimes the measurement is not in how much you’re given but how well you deal with what’s taken away. This plus a CARE card breakdown, a shout out to FRANKIE G. for providing the venue and a story about how real bangers roll.

WEED, war and a good idea about using one to get over the other.
