"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

What do you think about MacGregor now

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

He and Mayweather are supposed to fight in the Octagon now for the UFC...except no kicks, knees, elbows, or grappling will be allowed. They are going to allow clench-fighting, at least of some kind. It is like inventing a new sport, just for these two, but ironically it may actually resemble boxing from the 1800's, where grappling from a standing position was largely allowed.

No kicks, knees, elbows, or grappling? That's bullsh1t.

I keep thinking of how weird it could get. If Mayweather gets to break if either of them touch the canvas, he will just put down a knee to make the ref break them up. Then Macregor would know that, and probably be holding him up with one hand and punching him with another. The extent to which they allow standing grappling will determine everything. If they won't break them up, MacGregor would do best to smash Mayweather against the cage wall and hold him there, like Randy Couture used to do.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

This needs to be a pure MMA fight or its not worth it! Mayweather shouldn't worry, if he loses nobody expected him to win anyway just like when Conor went to boxing.

This harms both sports more than helps them
I agree. They need to pick a sport and not make up a new one. I always thought K1 kickboxing would have been a good compromise. Learning to defend against kicks can be accomplished a lot faster than the years it takes to learn to grapple.

It started out so well....

He should have gave Aldo a rematch.

(just like recently in the women's category Rose Namajunas gave Joanna Jędrzejczyk the former champion a rematch, after previously Rose fought Joanna for the title and was a huge underdog going in. She upset the odds and Joanna gave every excuse in the book. Rose agreed to a rematch and beat her again, although not a knockout like in the first match.)

He shouldn't have been let skip the queue to fight Alvarez.

Obviously he should have defended his belts.

See: Stipe Miočić. that's what a champ does, defends his belts.

He cares more about the money now and must believe he is more marketable while been "two weight champion"

Fight Khabib.

The Burgerking advert is cringeworthy.
