So why are they still burning 4.5 billion tons of coal a year?

Mug Root Beer. I was trying to find out if the “Mugrootbeeroffcial” socials was actually them. Their youtube videos are nuts.

I’ve never paid a cent to watch it and haven’t missed a ppv since UFC 99… YO HO HO

It unmasked a ton of charlatans in the martial arts space.

I’d agree jujitsu can be fun to watch, but really only if you know what you’re looking at. You see a punch land you know damage just occurred, the untrained eye sees a wrist/arm in the wrong place has no idea how close a sub may be. I hear you on the concussion aspect and it is an unfortunate reality of the sport. I wish more money was being spent on research into CTE and treatments.

The one down vote just loves coal.

I stated digging coal is bad in any case. My point is your blaming the US as the major contributor is inaccurate based on the numbers.

Huh, well thats a bummer. Sorry to hear that, I promise many of us aren’t.

Yeah I’d agree with both parts of that haha. Unfortunately most organizations have had shitty ties in the past. Whether that be to corruption, organized crime or our current president.

I’ve seen lots of people say how bad the fans are but I’m not sure why. Other sports have riots and hooliganism. I personally have never experienced an MMA fan engage in negative group behavior like that.

Yes we do, China burns 4.5 BILLION tons year so as I said, we export a small fraction of what they use. So again your statement that the US is the BIG problem is wrong. I agree we don’t need to dig coal for fuel anymore. But your assumption this is a US problem isn’t even close to the whole picture.

No, thats soccer and basketball.

Building new coal plants in any country at any time is absolutely NOT a good solution. The USA also exports only a small fraction of what China uses to them. So I don’t see how the US is the “big problem” in this specific case.The majority of their coal come from Indonesia. Creating a combination of nat gas, hydro nuclear and solar infrastructure is the best solution. I’m not talking out of my ass here, I’m a mechanical engineer in the stationary engineering field working at a major power plant.

I agree.

Ironic India is number one with how much coal they burn.

Dana definitely is a terrible guy and the best promoter of all time.

That’s interesting. China and India still primarily use coal for electricity generation. Neither are considered developing nations. Many poor countries use coal because its cheap and easy to transport. Instead of throwing money at poor countries why not build natural gas lines and/or nuke plants.

The most annoying part about that is those shit heads are usually casual fans who cant name more than 3 or 4 fighters. I hear you though.

Pretty spot on my guy.

Oh I see, I disagree heavily but definitely understand why you feel that way and respect it. MMA has never caused a riot. In regards to sides, its not like that in MMA. Individual people get rooted for. By example, I loved to cheer for Dustin Porier because he has a great personality, does a fuck load of charity and was always in great fights. On the other hand I like cheering against guys like Jon Jones because hes a genuinely bad person, seeing him get beat down is great, unfortunately that happens rarely.
