Watch fighter get comeuppance after celebrating before his fight

Before you press play, turn the sound down on your computer. When you do press play, you'll see a fighter who learns a little bit about hubris. The man in the blue headgear and black rashguard was pretty confident when he walked out for his fight. He did the Tito Ortiz "grave digger" celebration before the fight even started. Then, seconds into the fight, he pulled out the "Come at me bro" move that was Nick Diaz-esque. Unfortunately, his opponent did come at him, and knocked the blue-headgeared man out.

Let this be a lesson for all. Only tell someone, "Come at me, bro!" if in fact, you are ready for your opponent to come at you, bro.

Thank you, Cage Potato bros.

Watch Miesha Tate shut down the basketball player hitting on her

UFC bantamweight contender Miesha Tate talked to reporters after attending the ESPYs, but that didn't keep her from fending off come-ons from basketball players from Florida Gulf Coast University. Tate, who is in a relationship with UFC fighter Bryan Caraway, laughed at the basketball player who came onto her. She assured him he wouldn't remember any encounter he had with her. Well-played, Miesha. Well-played, indeed.

Thanks, With Leather.
