Alexander Hernandez admits it's disappointing that genuine interactions with fans have been reduced to shallow talk about parlays: “The saddest thing in the world is you get done with a fight, you're in the airport, and no one just comes up to you to say they're a fan or...

People say the most disgusting shit too over a fighter that “ruined their parlay” and it doesnt even matter when they do make money of it because they’ll just piss it away losing another bet anyway

I remember going to the weigh ins at UFC 160 in 2013, mgm grand Memorial Day weekend, and just seeing George Roop and Khabib walk in before the fans were let in was such a fucking rush. Let alone how incredible it was to be seated the next night and get photos with people like Werdum, better than any drug high. To picture that it’s been replaced with betting lines, is exactly why I stopped watching over 5 years ago . It just isn’t what it was.

@ReemJosephine I despise gambling as much as you do. I think it’s a bane to the integrity of all sports. Sad how widespread it’s become.

If you missed it, during UFC Noche, the announcer literally said something along the lines of, “The cage is officially open for business.” That tells you everything you need to know about where the UFC is headed. At this point, it feels like the sport has become more about gambling than the actual fights. Betting has completely taken over the UFC experience.

It was either that or no interaction at all. It’s not like you replaced a regular fan interaction with this, you just gained an audience because of sports betting. Maybe talk to a therapist about being a D list celeb to help you cope lmao

"You can either produce excellence or you can avoid criticism. But you cannot do both of those. The reason that you don't have certain excellence that you want is because you are afraid of getting criticized. You are afraid of the judgment that comes with it. You are afraid of standing out. You are afraid of being alone. You are afraid of people looking at you. You are worried about what people think of you. There are 2 categories of things in this world: 1) Things that are up to you 2) Things that are not up to you Which category does your reputation sit in? Your reputation is not up to you. I'm the one who associates your reputation with something, not you. You just do things. What's up to you? How you act. Your decisions. Your actions. That is up to you. Your reputation is not up to you. Here's how I know that: You all have a reputation about me and it's not in my control. I get to say and do whatever I say and do up here. I am in control of saying it. I am in control of doing it. The moment words leave my lips, who has control over what is done with those words? You! You are in control of what you think of me. And there's no way everybody in this room is going to think the exact same thing about me. No way. When it comes to exceptional, what we've got to understand is you can spend your whole life trying to avoid criticism and earn reputation, and it still won't be in your control. We can waste a lot of time missing out on excellence we could have been producing if we were just simply LESS trying to engineer what we wanted other people to think about us."

Jordan Peterson: "If you're competent and silent you will be ignored." "You might think well people should reward you because you're competent. And yes of course they should. But if you're competent and silent then you're just part of the background that's keeping everything functioning" On why you cannot negotiate from a position of weakness: "If you want to push your career forward you have to push it forward. You have to be competent and you have to be strategic" "To be strategic when you negotiate for a new position or a new salary you have to be able to say if you don't give me what I want then something you don't like will happen to you" "It's not a physical threat. It's that you have an option" "You have your CV in order. You're educated and competent and desirable to people outside of your immediate job. You're willing to instantly put yourself on the job market" "So that when you go talk to the person you're negotiating with you're credible" On the one thing most people completely miss about negotiation: "It's very seldom that you're talking to the person who's at the top of the pecking order. What you need to do is tell them a story that they can tell to their boss to make you not a problem" "A good story is look we really need this person because they're hyper competent and they have a better offer" "If you go in there with no power you're going to lose. Obviously" He concludes with the one thing every competent person needs to hear: "The first thing you need to know if you're going to negotiate is that you have to be able to say no. And what no means is that you're not going to do it"
