50 Cent Clowned On Conor McGregor Hard For Getting Beat By Floyd Mayweather

Conor McGregor talked a big game before the fight, as he should have to generate interest in the spectacle. However, one of the many people who he insulted during the promotional tour for the fight was 50 Cent. In July, McGregor said, “50 Cent’s a bitch. You and 50 are two fake money bitches. He’s bankrupt and you’re about to be.” He brought out a copy of Jay-Z’s 4:44 album and said, “I got Floyd a gift. This is JAY-Z’s new album, the 4.44. I want you to take this, listen to it, and learn how to build a real empire, not a fake empire.”

The rapper did not forget those stinging words and was giddy to slam McGregor with some insults of his own after Mayweather smashed Conor in the 10th round of the much-hyped fight. 50 Cent sent a series of memes trolling McGregor over his defeat. Fif first hit McGregor over his constant hugging of Mayweather with this “Titanic” meme.

Then Fiddy pointed out that Mayweather is now 50-0 with a photo of his face and the caption: “I know, I know you want a rematch. Don’t worry you might get us next time but for now. It’s back to burning the money like the joker in the BANK💰💰💵💰💰LOL”

Then 50 Cent posted the lowlight of the fight for Conor, when he literally got the snot beat out of him. “And this is for calling me a bitch. LOL 😆#50centralbet. Knocked the snot out your ass. 😂

Lastly, 50 Cent posted a photoshopped of his “Get Rich Or Die Tryin'” album cover, but with Money Mayweather’s face on it.

Floyd Mayweather definitely lived up to his “Money” nickname as he made a ridiculous payday on Saturday night’s fight with Conor McGregor. But how much money did Floyd make? Mayweather was guaranteed $100 million and McGregor has a base pay of $30 million. Not a bad gig. Both fighters get a piece of the pay-per-view pie. Early estimates point that the Mayweather Vs. McGregor sold over 5 million subscriptions, making it the most watched PPV of all-time. Surpassing 4.6 million sold for the Mayweather Vs. Manny Pacquiao superfight back on May 2, 2015, at the MGM Grand. That was said to have $410 million in revenue and Mayweather walked away with $250 million. Plus, Mayweather and McGregor may break the ticket record that Mayweather Vs. Pacquiao set of $72 million.

Mayweather has hinted that he will make $350 million, making more in one night than any NBA or NFL player has ever made in their entire career.

Mayweather didn’t even have to put in 36 minutes of work.

Mayweather was seen flaunting his huge check on an Instagram video.

Floyd Mayweather Says Casino Wouldn’t Let Him Bet On Himself

On Saturday afternoon before his big fight, Floyd Mayweather went into the M Casino sportsbook and tried to put a $400,000 bet on himself, according to a report from ESPN.

Multiple sources told ESPN that Mayweather went into the sportsbook at the M Resort in Las Vegas at around 3:30 p.m. PT Saturday with cash and plans to bet on his fight against UFC star Conor McGregor.

Mayweather attempted to place a $400,000 bet on the fight ending under 9.5 rounds at -200 odds, but according to a source, there were concerns over the legality of a fighter betting on anything other than a straight win, which caused a delay.

Mayweather then tried to bet on himself to win by knockout, but was unhappy about having to wait to place the wager and left without getting the bet down, the sources said.

Mayweather attempted to send a friend to bet the $400k on the under 9,5 rounds but was only allowed to bet $$87k

“I think that we bet 100 on 9½,” Mayweather told ESPN’s Sal Paolantonio after the fight. “I gave my guy six figures to go bet. I have to make sure he bet because earlier today I went to the sports book to bet and they wouldn’t let me bet.”

Mayweather later told SportsCenter he gave a friend $400,000 to bet, but that the friend was only allowed to place a bet for $87,000

‘Game Of Thrones’ Death Odds For The Season 7 Finale – Will Your Favorite Character Die?

Game Of Thrones Cersei Jaime

HBO


There hasn’t been that many important character deaths in Season 7, especially by “Game of Thrones” standards. However, this is the final episode, last chance to get some shocking deaths in before the final season. “Game of Thrones” season finales don’t bode well for main characters. Khal Drogo in Season 1, Tywin Lannister in Season 4, Jon Snow is Season 5, and Loras Tyrell, Margaery Tyrell, Mace Tyrell, High Sparrow, Tommen Baratheon, and Walder Frey in the Season 6 finale. If I’m a betting man, I’m guessing that big time players will die in the Season 7 finale. Episode 7, titled “The Dragon and the Wolf,” has a run time of 80 minutes, providing ample time for huge characters to meet their makers in The Old Gods and the New. So let’s look at some odds as to which beloved characters will perish and cause you to scream at your TV screen and be depressed IRL for the next three weeks.

“Game of Thrones” Death Odds:
5-1 Greyworm dies
5-1 Beric Dondarrion dies
7-1 The Wall is destroyed by the Night King or Viserion
8-1 Yara Greyjoy dies
8-1 Theon Greyjoy dies
10-1 The Mountain dies in CleganeBowl
10-1 Jorah Mormont dies
15-1 Bronn dies, doesn’t claim his castle
20-1 The Hound dies in the CleganeBowl
20-1 Cersei dies
25-1 Tyrion Lannister dies
25-1 Arya Stark dies
30-1 Jaime dies
40-1 Missandei dies
50-1 Varys dies
75-1 Sansa Stark dies
80-1 Davos Seaworth
90-1 Bran Stark dies
100-1 Samwell Tarly
250-1 Daenerys Targaryen dies
500-1 Jon Snow dies
1,000-1 Tormund Giantsbane dies (No way Tormund is killed off before making ginormous babies with Brienne of Tarth)
10,000-1 Night King dies (No way the greatest javelin-thrower in all of Westeros is going down anytime soon)

Sorry if you’ve become emotionally attached to the “GoT” characters who are about to croak in a horrific method, but Valar Morghulis.

According to Schefter the hit violated the NFL’s new rule on hitting a running back in a defenseless position.

Burfict, who is a repeat offender and was suspended for three games back in 2016, will be appealing the decision.

There’s Trouble In Samsung’s Paradise, Plus Hurricane Harvey’s Impact On Oil Refineries

“Nothing sedates rationality like large doses of effortless money.”
Timeless words from Warren Buffett.

Market Snapshot

  • The Dow and S&P got a boost from most sectors showing solid weekly gains.
  • Asia stocks gained despite policy uncertainty in D.C.
  • Oil ended higher as a result of Hurricane Harvey.
  • Uber voted on Expedia’s Dara Khosrowshahi to be its next CEO—he has yet to accept.

Trouble in Samsung’s Paradise

Prison Guard in slow, monotone voice: “**Thank you for serving time at the South Korean Correctional Institute. Please find the burnt Samsung Galaxy Note 7 you arrived with in the manilla envelope.”

Okay…hands up…we’re not exactly sure how it’ll go down five years from now, when Lee Jae-yong (heir to the Samsung empire) finishes his prison sentence.

What we do know? This past Friday, Lee was sentenced to that time for years of bribery, and corruption.

But…I own a Samsung. Does that make me an accomplice?

Of course not, so let’s set the record straight. Samsung, the $254 billion tech conglomerate and major driver of South Korea’s economy (one-fifth of its exports), has all the makings of a Netflix original drama.

It has a de facto leader (meaning the President isn’t picked—it’s their inherited right to lead), a history of bribery and corruption, and is part of a syndicate of family-lead, multinationals that wield power over the South Korean government.

Well that sounds corrupt. So what happened this time?

Jae-yong who took the helm (by default) after his father’s heart attack in 2014, was primarily found guilty of bribing former South Korean President Park Geun-hye in order to guarantee key Samsung deals.

We’re talking $5.7 million in Samsung money thrown at the President’s close friend, Choi Soon-sil, for his daughter’s equestrian training.

Six figures and 60 horse rides later, Samsung closed a questionable merger of two affiliate companies, allowing Lee to wipe out a large inheritance tax he had to pay.

Naturally, Lee and Samsung will appeal, but for the time being, it’s a big win for a country that’s looking to place a bigger divide between business and politics.

Yellen Takes a Stand

At the Jackson Hole symposium, Yellen stood up against a presidential administration looking to roll back policies implemented post-Great Recession—starting with the Obama-era Dodd-Frank Act.

Critics believe a repeal of Dodd-Frank and other regulations would free businesses’ access to funding. Our fearless Fed Chair begs to differ. Yellen is certain these policies have “boosted resilience [against financial crises] without limiting credit availability or economic growth.”

If you are pro-regulation, and pro-Yellen, heed her words now—with Yellen’s term expiring in February, this is likely to be one of her last hurrahs.

Watch What You Say About Harvey

When Hurricane Harvey, the Category 3-4 hurricane, made landfall this weekend, it took aim at any oil refineries in its path. And that’s a big deal.

Nearly one-third of the U.S.’ oil refining capacity is at risk, while Corpus Christi, a major port for crude export (1 million barrels a day), has been most affected by the storm. And if Harvey continues to wreak havoc, the price of oil will see a jump in the short run.

Even worse, reports place 232,721 homes in Harvey’s path of destruction, which could cause up to $40 billion in damages.

A message from the Brew Crew: what happened this weekend in Texas was a national tragedy and our hearts go out to anyone who was affected by the hurricane.

It’s Not Us, It’s You

The White House slapped a ban on all U.S. investments in newly-issued Venezuelan debt—the latest sign of American opposition to an oppressive government regime and a failing domestic economy.

The tactic limits key financing that would create unnecessary links between the U.S. and Venezuela, along with fueling the country’s “illegitimate rule.”

So what exactly is all the fuss about? Well, critics of President Nicolas Maduro say he has lead a once democratic country into a dictatorship, leaving millions without food and medicine, while allowing inflation to surge 720% (the Fed shoots for 2%).

With this executive order, Venezuela’s economy will have fewer ways to fund its oil-dependent (95% of all export revenue) economy.

How Focusing On Your Rib Cage Can Help You Do The Perfect Plank

$
0
0

planking

A couple of weeks ago I talked a bit about the basics of a plank and why that movement is one of the staple movements that you need to get under control if you want to own just about anything else you’re doing in the gym.

But for those of you who just aren’t about clicking links, here’s a brief overview:

Every single thing you do is a plank. No matter if you’re at the top of a deadlift, the top of a squat, a push-up, a pull-up, or just walking. It’s all a plank, or some variation of a plank. Which means if you can get to the point where you’re really owning your plank position, you can start to own the bigger compound movements even more so. Which means more gains. These are all good things.

Now, I’m sure there are going to be a number of people reading this who will have thoughts about the importance of planking for ab development, so that’s what I wanted to talk about today. Specifically how to make a plank more effective for building stronger and sexier abs.

But in order to understand how the abs can be made in a plank we need to take a look at the forgotten aspect of a plank, the rib cage.

The rib cage controls just about everything you do.

In my work as a trainer with some of the biggest performers on Broadway one of the things we always have to check in with is their rib cage positioning. Specifically how flared up and open their rib cage is. And this is especially true in a plank.

The reason being most of us spend our days walking around with a rib cage that is flared up and open. We like to walk with a big proud chest, not realizing that it causes our rib cage to lift upwards, and in turn placing stress on our lower back. All the time lengthening our abs and making it harder for them to contract properly. Which, in case you weren’t aware, when planking that’s what we want. We want maximal contraction.

Without fail, each and every single time we get someone to be aware of their rib cage position in a plank they begin to notice that their abs fire harder than they’ve ever experienced. Gone are the days of being able to plank for minutes at a time.

Here’s how to get that rib cage down:

Stand up straight and and place a hand at the bottom of your rib cage. Now slowly exhale all of your air through pursed lips. All of it. Each and every last little bit of air you have in your lungs. Towards the end you should notice that your abs start to turn on more and that your ribs pull downward just a bit. That downward pulling is exactly what we’re looking for here.

By getting those ribs down you’re able to get those abs in a position in which they contract harder than they typically do in a plank, which means more ab work for you. All thanks to breathing a bit and by altering your rib cage positioning.

And if you think that’s complete horseshit then I invite you to give it a try right now. Jump into a plank position and plank for 2-3 big exhales in which you get those ribs pulled down and see how your abs light up. I’m willing to bet a night at the bars that you’ll feel your abs more than you have in your plank in the past.

Get your elbows to your toes.

We’re not done here when it comes to planking and getting your abs to light up. One of my favorite ways to get people to contract their abs in a plank position is to have them plank, nail a good exhale so they can find their rib cage and abs, and then ask them to bring their elbows to their toes.

Now, obviously I don’t want your elbows actually moving towards your toes. But I want you to try and slide them across the floor with as much tension as possible. Almost immediately chances are you’re going to notice that your abs suddenly turn on far more than you’re used to. Especially if you pair this with that big exhale.

Give this all a try during your next workout. It can be done for multiple sets over time to make up your next ab workout, or you can do it as a part of your warm up to get your abdominal wall and core warm before going for your big lifts. Either one works.

I know this shit sounds crazy, but it’s just crazy enough that it does work. I can guarantee you that if you follow the instructions your abs will turn on more than you’ve ever known in a plank. Give it a go, and if it doesn’t work for you, feel free to shoot me an email: tanner@markfisherfitness.com

Super Fast Keg Swap At Jingu Stadium In Japan Just Blew My Damn Mind

I’ve said this before here on BroBible, but one of the skills every man should have in life is knowing how to tap a keg. I’m no expert when it comes to tapping a keg but if you hand me a tap and a keg, I’ll get that beer flowing in a very short amount of time. The people you’re about to see, they’re the mother fucking experts, and I say that with no small amount of jealousy. I’ve never in my life seen a keg tapped this fast:

This all went down at the Jingu Stadium in Tokyo, Japan, a baseball stadium that holds about 38,000 fans. That’s a lot of thirsty fans in need of beer. Naturally, the Japanese came up with some genius method of serving beer faster and more efficiently than what we’re working with at baseball stadiums here in America. The Japanese aren’t the world’s best inventors, but they’re sure as shit the best at improving upon existing technology. Why serve canned beer from plastic bins that the beer vendor has to set down every time he hands someone a beer when you can just wear a frickin’ keg on your back?

Floyd Mayweather Revealed The A+ Trash Talk He Dropped On McGregor In The Middle Of Their Fight

floyd mayweather trash talk between rounds conor mcgregor

Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor surprised pretty much every one on Saturday night by actually putting on a much more entertaining boxing match than most people expected. A lot of that probably had to do with the fact that despite the tremendous amount of hype no one really expected the fight to be anything more than the circus the lead-up to the event was.

During that lead-up to the fight the trash talk between Mayweather and McGregor was virtually non-stop whether it was at an official presser or just on social media. So it only makes sense that it continued during the fight with Mayweather dropping this gem on McGregor at the end of the fifth round as the UFC champ was beginning to tire…

“You still haven’t knocked me out? You said it wouldn’t go past four, when are you going to use your power?”

Of course the shade didn’t end when the fight did as Mayweather also added a little insult to injury at the post-fight press conference…

“We had a cool training camp, but I didn’t do any sparring for the last month,” admitted Mayweather. “My hands are real brittle and I wanted them to be solid when I came out here. If I had serious hard injury I wouldn’t have been able to hit so hard.”

Mayweather also added, with regard to McGregor’s skills and performance…

“He was solid, but I’ve been off for a couple of years and I’m older now. I still have a hell of an IQ and I’m still a thinker.

“His punching power is solid but I’ve felt it before so I kept coming forward. It wasn’t the kind of power that stopped me coming forward.

“I told you guys I’d come straight ahead. I could have sat back and counter-punched. My plan was to let him shoot heavy shots and take him down the stretch. I wanted to let him shoot heavy shots from the beginning.”

McGregor pretty much echoed what Mayweather said about coming forward during his post-fight presser

o change his style, and fair play to him, he adjusted, he changed his style — put his hands up and moved forward. He’s composed. He’s not that fast, he’s not that powerful, but boy was he composed in there.”

“He was making me throw and he was patient with his shots. I’ve got to give him nothing but respect. Fair play to him. Great career he has had.”

So who’s ready for Mayweather vs. McGregor 2? Yeah, that’s what I thought…

It’s been so long that I barely remember Sex Ed class. The only thing I really remember from the class was Matt F. fainting during the big video that taught us all how sex works. Poor dude. It’s been half a lifetime and his friends still haven’t let him forget about the time he fainted in Sex Ed class, and here I am reminding the world once again…I say all this because I don’t remember if my teacher taught us anything fake or not, but the people below do. These folks all shared their stories of teachers giving them incorrect info in sex ed class. The potential repercussions here when a teacher gives pupils false Sex Ed info are ruining the sexcapades of an entire generation which is a dangerous amount of power for one teacher to have, don’t you think? (via AskReddit):


This seems accurate, no?

theissingm:
Average penis size is 8 inches, you can imagine how that would affect self-esteem.


radioactive_koala:
Any time a boy has his hands in his pockets, he’s hiding his erection.
Every boy in school made sure to always have their hands on show from that day onwards!


Omniscient_Snail_Sam:
If you’re worried about being pressured into sex, just “keep things vertical” because it’s not possible to have sex without lying down.


KitchitiKipi:
She said girls can’t cum…when a boy asked her to clarify he said “you just mean they can’t ejaculate right?” And she responded “yes also that but female orgasm is a myth”


bitwaba:
HIV is smaller than the holes in a Condom


ManolinaCoralina:
That women can’t have orgasms unless they’re being penetrated. I pity that guy’s wife.


Im_Here_To_Fuck:
10th grade. A biology teacher was answering questions and was really confident in the answers she gave. Plamen asked her “what’s the fastest way a girl can reach orgasm” to which she replayed “everyone is different but it takes atleast an hour for a female to reach orgasm”. I remember 3 of my class mates having that “bitch … are you high ” face.


ferrrretsultan:
I was told that condoms increase your risk of pregnancy. Also fellatio can get you pregnant because the “sperm knows where to go”.


kitjen:
When we were eight we were given an impromptu lesson on it and I asked where do girls wee from. My teacher told me they wee from the same place as boys so I believed girls wee from their penis.


TUNNEL-SNAKES:
Straight sex: 99% chance of pregnancy.
Gay male sex: 100% chance of STDs and also hell.
Lesbian sex: Doesn’t exist.


spartiecat:
The worst sex ed advice I ever got was from my mother. According to her there are two likely scenarios of me dating in high school:
1: Girl will falsely accuse me of rape/sexual harassment and ruin my life
2: Girl will cheat on me and trick me into raising someone else’s baby and ruin my life


mirrokrowr:
That you can’t pee with an erection. I thought that she meant boys were literally physically unable to do that, not that it was just difficult. So the first time I did it, I thought something was horribly wrong with me.


ktsb:
Imo the first time i took a sex ed class was ok but the teacher was very …traditional for lack of a better word. He told us about what it was. Condoms. Stds. Abstinence as an option. Pregnancy and the class for the most part felt pretty informative and not judgmental. And then some kid raised his hand and asked about anal sex and the teacher said “oh you mean gay sex? ” and he said “no i mean anal sex ” and then the teacher said “that’s how gays have sex it’s gay sex.” and then he talked about lubes and how you can also lube for vaginal normal sex. And then someone else asked what if a man and woman have anal sex and he said ” then the man is secretly gay.” and he was dead centered on that way of thinking. “Women don’t want to have anal sex only a gay man would pressure a woman into gay sex so he can find her attractive. That’s how you hear about gay men having kids before being found out as gay. They start with gay sex and finish normally so they can have kids and appear normal.”
There was a collective cringe from most of us but i wonder if anyone in that class or in another now thinks like that.


toxicwaste25:
That women don’t ever die during childbirth, and that was just a myth.


p3t3r133:
That the head of the penis was called the Glanis. She was super excited and told us it was a little known fact since she saw it on one text book and never saw it where else. I think that textbook had a typo


BobMarker:
My sex ed teacher passed around a cup of water and had everyone spit in it. When she got it back, she compared it to having sex with multiple partners.


HopBiscuits:
The reason Mom’s and Dad’s can have sex without a condom is that you can’t get aids or STD’s if you’re in love.
I shit you not the teacher said this.


Stop watching Japanese cartoons, Teach.

Planeguy22:
The blood in the penis during an erection must come out somehow, so when you lost the erection, your penis would bleed… Strange teacher.


This teacher sounds like a troll.

TheNorthRemembers111:
He said that women grow a penis when horny. Like a boner.


It’s just science.

KWBC24:
8th Grade, the teacher said that a girl cant get pregnant while on top because gravity wouldn’t let the sperm go up


Well, bros, that wraps up the coverage from my end but if you want to keep on reading these AskReddit stories you can CLICK HERE to see that thread in full! You can also drop your story in the comments down below.

F**k Yeah! Study Finds Profanity And Intelligence Are Linked

Bros, today is the day you start swearing loud and proud. Hopefully, you’ve been fucking letting them f-bombs fly for years and haven’t let the societal pressure against profanity hold you down from speaking your goddamn mind. But, if you need some ammunition in the weak ass war against profanity then I’ve got you covered.

This isn’t the first time the scientific community has linked the regular use of profanity to higher levels of intelligence, but this study further solidifies the connection. Researchers are the University of Rochester polled 1,000 participants on 400 common behaviors, and what they found was the regular use of profanity was linked to high intelligence. They also found that people who swear regularly are likely to walk around the house naked, and eat spicy breakfasts.

The Daily Mail reports:

During the study, participants were asked if they performed each of the 400 behaviours, and how often. The results were then compared with their own personalities, with the aim being to identify signature behaviours for each of the main personality types.
People with higher intellects were more likely to curse, eat spicy breakfasts and lounge around the house naked, while extroverts were more likely to drive cars faster that 75mph, gamble and go to the pub.
Agreeable people had behaviours that benefited others and conscientious people were focused on avoiding irresponsible behaviours. (via)

Of course, this doesn’t mean that just because you curse like a sailor you’re an intelligent human being. Nor does this mean that if you start swearing your ass off today people will think you’re smarter. All this means is that researchers found people who swear frequently in their everyday lives are more likely to be intelligent.

While Johnny Manziel still remains out of work as no team in the NFL has decided he is ready for his big comeback yet, his fiancée Bre Tiesi is having no trouble finding gainful employment.

In fact, Tiesi was one of the select few who were chosen to work by Corona as a ring girl for the “FIGHT OF THE CENTURY” Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor. And based on the photos she and some of the other ring girls shared, Tiesi did a real bang-up job at both the pre-fight press conference as well as during the fight itself.

In a shocking turn of events, our man JFF was nowhere to be found during fight weekend. One would have thought that Manziel, with the combination of his fiancée working the fight and the event taking place in Vegas, would have been drawn to it like a moth to a flame. Then again, according to the sometimes reliable Terez Owens, there may be trouble in paradise brewing for the couple.

As the NFL season approaches, and every day that goes by Johnny’s dream of returning to the NFL goes up in smoke, he’s been super freaked out she’ll leave him. It started with Johnny’s fiance encouraging him to play in the CFL, which shook Johnny to the core. He was surprised she wanted him to head north according to our insider. Now the fights have continued, and Johnny is doing his best to stay away from the sauce.

Friend of the program Tawny Jordan was also one of the lucky ones to score an up-close look at the historic proceedings last week and weekend…
