Does anyone here like MMA? The Piotr Yan vs Merab Dvalishvili UFC fight a couple of weeks ago was brilliant.

Jake Paul lower odds than England to win Ashes. Haha

Isn't he getting USD70m or something nuts? He'd be insane not to do it, to be honest. He's not going to get hurt. If he sparks him out, great. If he doesn't, people will say he was going easy or it was rigged. It's basically 70m dollars for some promo work and a light sparring session.

His last "fight" was against someone who is like a foot shorter and 100lbs lighter than AJ!

Fleece Navidad - top pun.

This is what will happen if they actually fight. More likely Paul runs around the ring for a few rounds then goes down after a body shot or something.

A sponsor would usually get home tickets but not away tickets.

That's fucking silly, and not really fair on the players.

They don't make it. I expect they have made plenty of money off it, though.

It's not really up to the BBC to unilaterally do that. It would have needed political buy in as well to remove its public service obligations. The BBC makes significant commercial profits from licensing content but these are often wiped out by its public service commitments.

He's cleverly managed to defame the BBC whilst announcing he is trying to sue them for defamation. #genius

He also once claimed that the best way to cook a steak is from frozen straight into an air-fryer, which caused some debate.

In fairness, they are probably banging.

Indeed, and not just for the sentiment but because he writes like a 12 year old.

Is this a joke? There has been plenty. Example: https://www.counterterrorism.police.uk/what-we-do/counter-terrorism/prevent/

When he first rose to "fame", he was pretty measured and calm. Didn't agree with everything he said, but he tended to say it well. That interview is a masterclass in composure, patience and clarity. The sort of thing we rarely get in media nowadays. He's had, literally, a mental breakdown since then and various family issues and now peddles an awful lot of shit. It's a shame.

For some reason, I always get Maitlis confused with Cathy Newman. But this is good, because then it reminds me to watch this again:

The News has had some great episodes. Iranian Embassy Iraq War 9/11 George Michael

Massive props to the Muslim guy who disarmed the terrorist.

It seems pretty reasonable to contend that Israeli government policies, not least the constant determination to attempt to speak for and represent all Jews, is partly responsible for any recent rise in anti-Jewish sentiment / crimes. Obviously we will never know if this would have happened regardless but to glibly claim no relationship between the way Israel treats Palestinians and violence against Jews seems myopic.

Few goes in the U21s?

I bet she feels weird. Leathery. Varnished. Her Big Suze cousin, however....

I agree, but I don't think he should be on the pitch until he's ready.
