Knuckle Up #364: UFC 187 + the Unbearable Joy of Being Wrong for the Right Reasons

Literary gunslinger Eugene S. Robinson lends his "one"-of-a-"kind" "perspective" to UFC 187, the dismasting of his pick to win, the late quasi-great ANTHONY 'RUMBLE' JOHNSON at the hands of America's darling DANIEL CORMIER and why this means JONES will remain a trivia question until 2016 at the earliest, why Johnson will never return ever, the WEIDMAN paradox, the ROCKHOLDIAN rise to power, and why TRAVIS v. ANDREI was the kind of thing that makes you proud to be a fan of the brawl. Yeah, good enough to remember that it was good enough to help you forget. What? Exactly how sucky things had been.
