Monday Sports Talk Social Quiz #6 - Win 100k SPORTS + 500k SPORTS delegation

avatar

Welcome back to the Monday Sports Quiz where we've got a couple of new rounds or at least subjects to choose from this week.

4bEjbgCbFMvAGbwxD9CJfJUznpDy21P1gb5kciUwoKrnYbGbNVgJCYqgah59G5dtY4heFNcRq2cJAr6nK6W3BjrkUbPEM9Ryz3cNnyL5oewz9MqE7dtPYgQAicvdNuL3z5ooEzzC5FyHdGjQn4Ht2gJyNHvicXsvRf6UZ2jCxBZNm8Fz5U.png

@edprivat requested a round on MMA which you'll see below and in general I'm happy to take requests like that so if you've got a sport or type of question that you'd like to see in the quiz then let me know and I'll try and get it in. In some ways being told which sport to focus on makes it easier for me to research although I must admit I know jack shit about MMA so that was a steep learning curve!

Results from Sports Talk Social Quiz #5

I won't post the questions again but you can see them here

Question 1 - Kieran Trippier and Liam Livingstone @marcinxyz
Question 2 - Matthew Stafford and Cooper Kupp (no correct answers)
Question 3 - Lando Norris and Marcus Smith @blanchy

Question 5

We only had 2 attempts so I'll share first and second prize with @ablaze and @blanchy (25K SPORTS each) and of course a point each in the league for getting Chris Waddle and Mark Bright. There were literally dozens of answers you could have given, here are few (the ones I gave clues about)
John Harkes, Regi Blinker, Gilles De Bilde, Nigel Pearson, Andy Pearce, etc

February Standings

At the halfway point this month so plenty of points to play for

Q3 and Q4 are correct!

2 points and 20K SPORTS for you

I'll reveal the answer to Q1 next week

I have no idea why someone would get a tattoo of Wenger on a dog. Maybe it's not a dog. Maybe it's Emmanuel Petit, the hair is quite similar 🤣

Unfortunately while you've beaten the Irish you've come a couple of mins behind bil.prag

Here's the full tat which is apparently on the arse of some teenager. Little does he know that if Southgate hadn't missed that penalty in 96 that football would already have come home...

@ablaze there is a grudge here since Ireland hammered the Springbox in their own back yard in 2016.

Q5: all of them were Champions?

They are all champions so you're on the right track but then there are lots of other UFC champions so the connection is much deeper and more specific to just these guys.

Have a look at a few of the previous quizzes to see how deep Question 5 goes

Nope. Pretty sure Arlovski has only ever fought at heavyweight

Was a guess based on the fact that I knew some on the list had won at multiple weights. This should be right up @edprivat street

Q5: That's a tough one, they didn't all defend their titles, but they all won their titles, and got another win right after, either in another weight class like McGregor, but it doesn't mean that they all defended their titles.

Question 5 - Clue 1

Time for the first clue then. @edprivat and @bil.prag have already worked out that these are all UFC winners. You are looking for what specifically made their title fights different from others

Like you I know nothing about MMA. It's not correct but a good guess all the same!

Question 5 - Clue 2

Right someone has to get this one right so let's give another clue.

Worth remembering that UFC fighters are often injured and/or embroiled in a controversy that doesn't allow them to fight. Think about what happens when the fighter in question is the current reigning champ for that division and how it is related to the names above.

Well done brother, it was a lot of fun, and it must have taken some time to find a good question.
