im honestly curious as to why an article that does not speak favorably about Belal pictures him celebrating his palestinian flag?

it could be any photo of him ofc

i want to assume we are so pro-palestine that we wanted to include the flag despite the opinion on his fighting ?

bc it kinda reads like “look at this bitch we are roasting and his bad flag”

so say we all

palestine will be free !!

i am sincerely just curious. it genuinely seems like an odd choice to me. that’s all

Not sure what you mean man. The point of the article is dissecting Belal's shortcomings and habits as a means of taking advantage of them. It was written before his last point to spell a potential gameplan for JDM.

The picture of him is one of many, and he's always repping Palestine. He was the champion. The fact that he's holding the flag has absolutely nothing to do with the content of the article, and I'm not bashing him, but providing an honest dissection of phases in the fight he can be taken advantage of.

why i asked

but you claiming to not understanding why id ask seems odd or disengenuous

i am standing on how i presented my query

i laid out my point in a manner that you are ignoring. i was neutral

and i believe my sincere and polite question deserves a more neutral and polite reply than i have received

i dont think you get to indulge in this level of self defensiveness in the face of a genocide

bc culture and socials does matter in regards to stopping genocide

so as a martial artist it’s my job to ask. maybe that’s not understood by others whom might not be

you have ofc declined from agreeing that palestine should be free

maybe that's just because your ego lost control and you made it all about yourself?

or maybe you don't support palestine and that's why ur being so defensive?

i also didnt realize you were author of the article? (separate account ig?)

First off, this is a guest post because Kick is a fantastic analyst.

2nd it’s just a random pic of Belal with his flag. Neither of us have extensive knowledge on that subject to comment. If a picture with a flag bothers you so much then this isn’t the newsletter for you.

Ok we will play your game:

Nothing about this article referenced his flag or roasting, you’re just making up narratives at this point.

The article was about his fighting style which was both praised and critiqued.

The fact that your making this some sort of political thing is very weird

I am a fight analyst. I am not a reporter, nor do I talk about news not related to combat sports in my written work. I speak on combat sports strategy and tactics. Thats what this article discusses. Belal Muhammad being from Palestine is ancillary to the content of this article, which focuses on his fighting style and ability.
