@jedkmeshew.bsky.social How much does your soul pine for Jean Silva (who cries at the sight of a belt) to be the same weight class as Jiri (who cries at the sight of a man winning a belt) so they could cry and fight each other many times for our entertainment? The Weeping MF belt!

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social If Justin blooters paddy on Saturday do you think the UFC will match paddy's next fight with one of the top tenners that you and Mike think he may possibly win against or one of the others that you think he's less likely to beat? Curious how the UFC will view him if he loses

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social does the ufc's non ppv model mean that they'll be more willing to put on Euro shows at our time rather than 3am etc? Which might create squirrely matchmaking for the ufc to scoop up cash in big fights - paddy (doesnt deserve caps or a title shot!)V BSD in a stadium in Paris?

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social True or false - If Jiri is in a title fight that ends in the same way as the Pantoja/Vann fight- he would refuse to accept the title due to his code of honour?

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social if Paddy and Kamaru get title fights next year should the ufc be renamed the Undeserving Fighting Championship? Banger of a card last night and fun to rewatch you and Mike reacting to the main card ko's

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social Once a year you and Mike should choose a dogshit (copyright jack Slack) apex card and have a watch party and treat it with the kind of enthusiasm and anticipation you would for a 300 style card. It'll be fun if its as terrible as you expect & fun if it's actually ...fun

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social If you could assemble a 5 fight main card with results that would be objectively funny to you but infuriate the ufc- who would you pick? No need to reply but maybe something to put out there when you have to muster interest in a lacklustre apex card in the future

@acjimbo.bsky.social re bringing on subs before opposition take a penalty kick - icing the kicker is the nfl version when the opposition call a time out just before the kicker is ready - seems to work sometimes too depending on the jeapardy

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social Do you think that due to the need for it to be an unarguably great card-there could be a logjam of great fighters not fighting next year until after the white house card because Dana would want any drop outs to be replaced by equally big names ? (highest of F.A.R.T. scores!)

@elizabethalker.bsky.social the Guardian review of your book says there's a chapter on Japanese ambient electronica- does that include Susumu Yokota ? I'd love to read what you say about him- looking forward to reading the book and good luck with it

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social do you think there's a comparison to be made between Brian Ortega and Travis Browne ? They were both in potential future champion convos early in their career then..they hit a wall (and were hit by other fighters!) and their momentum went the other way -weight cutting aside
August 25, 2025 at 8:43 PM
@jedkmeshew.bsky.social .....to follow up- from the ufc's point of view if that happens- they won't be scrambling to fill a main event now that they've already been paid in advance for it - unlike ppv's which need the draw of the main event to justify fans paying for it
August 16, 2025 at 9:27 AM
@jedkmeshew.bsky.social unintended consequence of new tv deal re pay structure- do you think fighters more likely to pull out of headline/championship fights if opponent misses weight/ is replaced last minute as there's less money 4 them if not ppv thus changing the risk /reward ratio?

@mlbeurope.bsky.social
#basescoveredlive is there a reason that the calling of a play where the batter is safe or not when running to a base, is called "in time" i.e that the fielding team are in time to run him out rather than referring to the batter being "in time" if he's in?

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social Do you think Jon wants on the White House card in order to parley it into an open ended Presidential pardon for past and future, eh, endeavours? I would if I was him!

#basescoveredlive question for Mel and X - what's your favourite team song? I'm partial to the Cubs' Go Cubs Go myself -

@totallyshow.bsky.social re the fifa club world cup - is Robbie Williams the new Pitbull? ( groans! 😅)
July 13, 2025 at 7:38 PM
@jedkmeshew.bsky.social If Ilia loses to Charles does it make sense for the ufc to match him with Paddy next? They can make $ on a genuine grudge match & we can find out whether Paddy deserves the next step up or if Ilia's move up weight was foolhardy or just a blip

@seanfennessey.bsky.social How about a Big Pic on the cast photo of The Outsiders- what happened to them? Who became big stars and who didn't and why? Also which male stars not in the film went on to do great things in the 80's and 90's etc without that kind of launchpad- Arnie, Bruce etc.

@jedkmeshew.bsky.social are you worried that the mma gods have got it in for you after they punished your attendance at the ufc last night with the kind of tepid event that you enjoy going to town over when you watch from the safety of your own home? Or did the Bellato weirdness make up for it?
