"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

1) Suppose, Tyson and Vitor Belfort decide to "play fight club" like in the movie. Only rules are you can't use items and you can't hit the groin area. Who do you think is gonna win?

2) What if they were Tyson and John Cena?

3) What if they were Belfort and Cena?

4) Who would be the strongest in the world in this situation, in your opinion?



Please, don't make Diablo close this thread by starting something like "what's the best martial art" or "fight club is just a movie", because the intent of this thread is just to see what your opinions are.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

A prime Belfort vs. a prime Tyson in a streetfight = Vitor all the way. I don't see how Tyson would stop the takedown and he has no experience in ground fighting. He would be submitted easily. His only chance to win would be in the first few seconds with a quick KO.

That's my opinion too, I was also wondering whether it'd be likely or not that Tyson managed to KOd him before he even did anything though.

What about the other 2 options? Cena may be significantly weaker, but he also is an experienced brawler, is a lot taller than them and weighs more.

Jariel and seanchai, I appreciate that you want to look cool in front of the class, but please sit down and be quiet now, you'll mack on the girls after lesson;)
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Tyson doesnt know anything outside of boxing, what makes you think he has a chance against a pofessional MMA fighter?

Wait, dude. We're not talking about a guy who can only throw punches and combinations. I'm pretty sure that guy has had many more actual street fights than any MMA professional. Moreover, he's a lot bigger than Vitor Belfort. I'm not saying he would necessarily win, since I would probably bet on Belfort; I'm just saying that it's not that obvious that he would lose.

Other opinions?

What about the other comparisons I've proposed?

Tyson would do well. He has a lot of intensity. he'd probably bite the other guy into submission

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Tyson would of course have a punchers chance, his punch is as hard as it gets, but i doubt he could stop Mirkos LHK.

John Cena would get destroyed IMO

Belfort and Tyson would close, Belfort probably win unless he wanted to keep standing, where Tyson would knock him out!!

I'D love to see Tyson or another World CLass boxer against Mirko in a standing fight

Belfort wins, loses an ear, Tyson gets pissed off about the loss, does a couple of lines of coke and knocks off a 7-11.
