In Round #384 KNUCKLE UP host and panjandrum EUGENE S. ROBINSON [with the "S" standing for "Semiotics"] goes deep under the skin and sinew of UFC 182 for a psychographic breakdown of the event's jewel in the crown, the systematic denial of the reality of DANIEL CORMIER's personal experience at the hands of JON JONES. With analogs drawn from his scant but scattered knowledge of World War 2 history, sexual name dropping, and outrageous claims barely substantiated by anything this side of reality, Robinson is on fire as he paints by number a picture of what Kierkegaard may have called fear and trembling and a sickness unto death as we all witnessed Cormier witness the most crucial moment possible in a man's life: when he realizes exactly who he is.
Terrifying. Sobering. And not even a little bit amusing.
