Favorite History Books || The House of Government: A Saga of the Russian Revolution by Yuri Slezkine ★★★★☆

In the House of Government, some residents were more important than others because of their position within the Party and state bureaucracy, length of service as Old Bolsheviks, or particular accomplishments on the battlefield and the “labor front.” In this book, some characters are more important than others because they made provisions for their own memorialization or because someone else did it in their behalf.

One of the leaders of the Bolshevik takeover in Moscow and chairman of the All-Union Society for Cultural Ties with Foreign Countries, Aleksandr Arosev (Apts. 103 and 104), kept a diary that his sister preserved and one of his daughters published. One of the ideologues of Left Communism and the first head of the Supreme Council of the National Economy, Valerian Osinsky (Apts. 18, 389), maintained a twenty-year correspondence with Anna Shaternikova, who kept his letters and handed them to his daughter, who deposited them in a state archive before writing a book of memoirs, which she posted on the Internet and her daughter later published. The most influential Bolshevik literary critic and Party supervisor of Soviet literature in the 1920s, Aleksandr Voronsky (Apt. 357), wrote several books of memoirs and had a great many essays written about him (including several by his daughter). The director of the Lenin Mausoleum Laboratory, Boris Zbarsky (Apt. 28), immortalized himself by embalming Lenin’s body. His son and colleague, Ilya Zbarsky, took professional care of Lenin’s body and wrote an autobiography memorializing himself and his father. “The Party’s Conscience” and deputy prosecutor general, Aron Solts (Apt. 393), wrote numerous articles about Communist ethics and sheltered his recently divorced niece, whose daughter wrote a book about him (and sent the manuscript to an archive). The prosecutor at the Filipp Mironov treason trial in 1919, Ivar Smilga (Apt. 230), was the subject of several interviews given by his daughter Tatiana, who had inherited his gift of eloquence and put a great deal of effort into preserving his memory. The chairman of the Flour Milling Industry Directorate, Boris Ivanov, “the Baker” (Apt. 372), was remembered by many of his House of Government neighbors for his extraordinary generosity.

Lyova Fedotov, the son of the late Central Committee instructor, Feodor Fedotov (Apt. 262), kept a diary and believed that “everything is important for history.” Inna Gaister, the daughter of the deputy people’s commissar of agriculture, Aron Gaister (Apt. 162), published a detailed “family chronicle.” Anatoly Granovsky, the son of the director of the Berezniki Chemical Plant, Mikhail Granovsky (Apt. 418), defected to the United States and wrote a memoir about his work as a secret agent under the command of Andrei Sverdlov, the son of the first head of the Soviet state and organizer of the Red Terror, Yakov Sverdlov. As a young revolutionary, Yakov Sverdlov wrote several revealing letters to Andrei’s mother, Klavdia Novgorodtseva (Apt. 319), and to his young friend and disciple, Kira Egon-Besser. Both women preserved his letters and wrote memoirs about him. Boris Ivanov, the “Baker,” wrote memoirs about Yakov’s and Klavdia’s life in Siberian exile. Andrei Sverdlov (Apt. 319) helped edit his mother’s memoirs, coauthored three detective stories based on his experience as a secret police official, and was featured in the memoirs of Anna Larina-Bukharina (Apt. 470) as one of her interrogators. After the arrest of the former head of the secret police investigations department, Grigory Moroz (Apt. 39), his wife, Fanni Kreindel, and eldest son, Samuil, were sent to labor camps, and his two younger sons, Vladimir and Aleksandr, to an orphanage. Vladimir kept a diary and wrote several defiant letters that were used as evidence against him (and published by later historians); Samuil wrote his memoirs and sent them to a museum. Eva Levina-Rozengolts, a professional artist and sister of the people’s commissar of foreign trade, Arkady Rozengolts (Apt. 237), spent seven years in exile and produced several graphic cycles dedicated to those who came back and those who did not. The oldest of the Old Bolsheviks, Yelena Stasova (Apts. 245, 291), devoted the last ten years of her life to the “rehabilitation” of those who came back and those who did not.

Yulia Piatnitskaya, the wife of the secretary of the Comintern Executive Committee, Osip Piatnitsky (Apt. 400), started a diary shortly before his arrest and kept it until she, too, was arrested. Her diary was published by her son, Vladimir, who also wrote a book about his father. Tatiana (“Tania”) Miagkova, the wife of the chairman of the State Planning Committee of Ukraine, Mikhail Poloz (Apt. 199), regularly wrote to her family from prison, exile, and labor camps. Her letters were preserved and typed up by her daughter, Rada Poloz. Natalia Sats, the wife of the people’s commissar of internal trade, Izrail Veitser (Apt. 159), founded the world’s first children’s theater and wrote two autobiographies, one of which dealt with her time in prison, exile, and labor camps. Agnessa Argiropulo, the wife of the secret police official who proposed the use of extrajudicial troikas during the Great Terror, Sergei Mironov, told the story of their life together to a Memorial Society researcher, who published it as a book. Maria Denisova, the wife of the Red Cavalry commissar, Yefim Shchadenko (Apts. 10, 505), served as the prototype for Maria in Vladimir Mayakovsky’s poem A Cloud in Pants. The director of the Moscow-Kazan Railway, Ivan Kuchmin (Apt. 226), served as the prototype for Aleksei Kurilov in Leonid Leonov’s novel, The Road to Ocean. The Pravda correspondent, Mikhail Koltsov (Apt. 143), served as the prototype for Karkov in Ernest Hemingway’s novel, For Whom the Bell Tolls. “Doubting Makar,” from Andrei Platonov’s short story by the same name, participated in the building of the House of Government. All Saints Street, on which the House of Government was built, was renamed in honor of Aleksandr Serafimovich, the author of The Iron Flood (Apt. 82). Yuri Trifonov, the son of the Red Army commissar and chairman of the Main Committee on Foreign Concessions, Valentin Trifonov (Apt. 137), wrote a novella, The House on the Embankment, that immortalized the House of Government. His widow, Olga Trifonova, would become the director of the House on the Embankment Museum, which continues to collect books, letters, diaries, stories, paintings, photographs, gramophones, and other remnants of the House of Government.

Got it ol in me ded moroz bag, eNJOY THE INFO DUMP, CHILDREN.

1. Andrey Mironov and his Interesting Facts

Lemme not be original and recite the facts that might just as well be very-well known but I myself constantly forget about these:

The dude suffered from skin boils (furuncles) all over his body: this is one of the reasons he always wore these never-ending turtlenecks, it was just a way to hide the skin horrors. Those fuks also hurt af which bothered Mironov’s stage partners and friends in scenes where he’d have to fall and/or get caught by other people, because that they’d have to grab all his 20359582 sore spots and deliver The Pain. Obvs they’d be like m8 lets just change this scene but Mironov insisted to do it for The Art, so all they were left with was to figure out how to grab him today to lessen the pain.

The dude got one real daughter and one fake daughter (stepdaughter ok ok), both were named Maria, which never fails to entertain me whenever pics of both of them show up and ppl are like HECK YEA MASHAS!!! WAIT WHICH MASHA IS THIS??? The fake daughter recently split up from Livanov’s murder son which is a shame imo, it really looked like there was something good going on but alas.

Mironov was the epitome of YOLO, in a positive way, all Mironov and His Friends ever cared about is how to make money and have a grand time, bc nobody was ever rich in the USSR and tbh not that happy either. They can and they WILL get across half of Russia on a scooter to make a show for the grandmas of the Meat Processing Factory No. 425 for em sweet sweet 100 roubles, the absolute SLÜTE for the cash and vodka, jump in for the Good Kush and do not look back. The shite they did on their international theater tours is something else entirely, ma dudes, but basically: THEY WILL EAT YOUR CROPS, STEAL THE FOOD FROM SQUIRRELS, BEG STRANGERS FOR MONEY, DO A GROUP PISSING.

The betch was a constant victim of pranks: whether it was from Livanov and his canteen sausages, or his bffs Shirvindt and Derzhavin who packed his bag for his honeymoon with bricks and a portrait of Lenin, but the pranking shitstorm was relentless and neverending and it looks like Mironov took it all with a big ol face of :’)

2. The most dramatic celebrity romance

I think we can agree it’s them fucking Vladimir Vysotsky and Marina Vlady, my gOD how fucknig dramatic and inflated and over-exposed and fucking overrated, the meaning of DRAMA itself. Yall know how much the government LOATHED every single breath Vysotsky took anyways, thenks to his poetry/songs that rightfully shat all over the most prominent aspects of living in the USSR, so the guy was rolling in constant drama 24/7 as it was, bUT THEN! He just HAD to get involved with a French fucking actress and make it serious: cue the absolute shitshow of them trying to get married, then an even bigger shitshow of Vysotsky getting so fearless he wanted visas to visit his wife in France and he gOT THEM in the end, possibly resulting in the government using his cutouts as target practice. So the betch keeps spitting out his Realest Songs despite them being forbidden, gets a free pass to teh fuckin ABROAD!!!!!! to dick his wife down, and gets away with it ol!!!!! The romance is so fucking shite lmao the gal is still trying to make it out as something Special when the motherfucker was quite openly cheating on her left and right, he literally died with his new burd at his bed (i am so sorry yarmolnik’s wife i luv ur husband and i hope yall still happy together). I think I’ve accidentally read a snippet from her book where she fuckien started describing them FUCKING in some cringy terms i was like hELLO???? THE SHIDD??? Basically, every aspect of Vysotsky’s life and their marriage was always some full-blown drama and tragically enough it still is bc all these other fucks are still alive and throbbing for attention i am so tired.

However, I cannot not include a VERY HONOURABLE ADDITION of uuh ~somewhat” celebs because this romance was GOOD, AND VERY GOOD, AND EXTREMELY GOOD!!!!!

Fucking Brian Grover and Elena Golius in 1938, the absolute mad lads. We have a luv story of an English engineer and some Russian gal who fell in love despite the very real fears in the current regime and all, and despite the gal being woke enough to try and dodge such a potential death sentence on her ass, but Grover’s intentions were good and pure and serious so the otp became canon. The dude was such a sicc engineer he got actually nationwide famous thanks to his sicc good actions during some oil rig explosion disaster, which did make him a celeb I guess. After that the gal felt safe enough to confess her luv and get married but SYKE LOL good luck with that in the fucking 1930s! So Grover came up with a Cunning Plan where he just quit his job, bought an old truck and hid the gal between flour bags, transported her to Moscow and they somehow managed to get married there, bUT SYKE AGAIN!! He had to come back to England one day and when he wanted to return back to Russia TOUGH LUCK LOL THE POLITICAL SITUATION HAS CHANGED UR BLOCKED BETCH BYE. The wife pleads the government and is told to get fuck’d, she applies for a visa and gets fuck’d, the husband accepts a job in Persia and works there for five years in hopes that the country has sum Right People to help him get in Russia, but no luck. Finally, the wife writes to him that’s all lost and rip and they should just forget it all, and this is where Grover goes :)

One day a nice man shows up at London’s flying school asking for a pilot’s license, to which he obvs gets a rational answer of UH M8 YOU GOTTA COMPLETE THE FLYING COURSE N ALL IT LITERALLY TAKES YEARS TO DO??? and the man says that’s ok :)) i am ready :)) in just under a MONTH he gets his license, and uses his last money to buy an old plane and pay another pilot to accompany him on his Surprise Journey, which was literally FLYING ACROSS THE CONTINENT ILLEGALLY TO RUSSIA TO SEE HIS WIFE. So em fucks buckle up and navigate their way with a help of a fuckigg world map from a high school geography book, it was so cold Grover had to water the fuel meter with hot coffee from his thermos to stop it from freezing, all until they finally ran out of everything and safely crashed SOMEWHERE in Russia.

So as the shocked as fuck farmers watch an English fucking plane crash in their field, some nice gent crawls out and in broken Russian says something liek Hello I am Brian Grover and I’m Here To See My Wife :))

Cue the NKVD prison, the mass coverage from the press, the criminal charges up to 10 years in gulags bc of how many fucking laws he broke, but as it became very clear that his only objective was to see his wife, the court suddenly chilled the fuck out and only ordered him to pay a fine and allowed the luv burds to ~reunite~ while the court cheered. SO BRIAN AND ELENA GOT TOGETHER FOREVA AND HAD TWO KIDS AND LIVED WITH EACH OTHER ALL THEIR LIVES TILL THEY WERE LIKE 90 AND DIED ONE YEAR APART!!!!!

IF THAT AINT THE MOST DRAMATIC ROMANCE IN THE USSR THEN NOTHING ELSE IS.

3. Goodie actors/Baddie actors

i wallow quite a lot in biographies and autobiographies n all, and from them i certainly learned that no person is just 100% good or evil, like there are always aspects of their lives where they are assholes, but there are always good sides to them as well, so in that conclusive sense of ASSHOLE vs ANGEL, nobody is either. My luv smoktun is a strong power bottom irl but an absolute annoying betch when it comes to The Art, mikhalkov is the fuckin devil child but everybody always praises how good of a director and even a friend he was (NOT ANYMOR HUH), Livanov is always that 50/50 on the pure evil vs goodness good scale, like it’s hard to just pinpoint a BETCH or a UWU.

But I’ll try and say that on the Bad scale, it’s usually the gals, and Nonna Mordyukova is one of them. Like we have divas, but then there’s this gal where you just never know what she’ll do to you. A nightmare to work with (”mordyuk” the “”swear word””” from the diamond arm is literally Gaidai getting pissed at working with her this much), explosive in life, holding fucking nothing sacred. Varley, her daughter-in-law, was just liek TF 24/7 bc one day the grandson would be her best person ever and then SUDDENLY she’d be like FUCK YOU AND FUCK THIS KID WHO KNOWS WHERE IT CAME FROM!!! despite the kid being a carbon copy of Mordyukova’s son. You’re just constantly at her vague mercy wondering which stars should align today for her to suddenly change your mind about you, like idk what is everybody loving about her but she was a rather heavy and unpleasant person to be around and fuck that. Also, not a good fucking actress. Find me a role where she isn’t playing some Ethnic Slavic Woman.

As for the Pure Good, we will never have the Pure but the Big Good is Alexander Abdulov. Trust me, this guy sure knows how to tell you to fuck off and push his own self to get something and punch you in the face and even describe how he’s going to dismember you with a straight face (asdfgh it’s a long story), but he was Good. Anything you read about him, all Good, he was a very friendly guy, outgoing, active, kind, made friends with everybody, was an insane workaholic (only managed to work on the wizards during the night bc for the rest of the day he was busy in FOUR OTHER FILMS SIMULTANEOUSLY). I luv his own fake daughter story bc he really did consider Alfyorova’s daughter his own, and he’d fuckin punch you so hard if you tell him otherwise. As he said himself, he knows all her problems, all her interests, all her worries and joys, so she is his 100% no-gmo daughter. aND the fake daughter has an insta n everything and everytime she mentions Dad it’s nothing but love and rainbows and almost a decade later after his death she still cannot bring herself to visit his grave bc she just doesn’t believe that he is truly dead. All of that, mind you, with the fact that abdul and alfyorova split up and he had a family of his own later in life n all, so there was NO obligation for anything at all from either of them and yet still abdul loved her senselessly. She’s ask for a bag of sweets and he’ll get her a fucking truck of these, total mad lads all around. PLUS he was Peltser’s almost fake son she luved him this much, and stories about Peltser indicate that she was One Hell of a woman, and yet even she crumbled before the Good. I’m just never worried when it comes to articles about abdul bc i know it’s either clickbait or something good again.

THAT’S ALL DED MOROZ HAD IN HIS BAG FOR THESE QUESTIONS, CALL SNEGUROCHKA X3 MORE TIMES TO SUMMON MORE

#andrey mironov #alexander abdulov #vladimir vysotsky #QUESTION TIM BITCH #ASK MORE MY BALLSACK IS STILL FUL- shouldnt have said that

Virtual Satoshi Monument Goes up in Kiev, Hollywood Is Next

A Ukrainian project group has erected a statue of Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous founder of Bitcoin, in the virtual reality (VR) of a mobile app they have developed. The plan is to construct a network of virtual cities around such statues and ultimately establish a global “Satoshi Nakamoto Republic.” The monument can be seen on smartphones pointed at the empty pedestal in central Kiev where the imposing statue of Lenin used to stand for decades before it was toppled by protesters in 2013.

Virtual Satoshi Can Be Seen Through a Mobile App and VR Glasses

The new Satoshi Nakamoto monument now greets residents and guests of the Ukrainian capital at the intersection of Taras Shevchenko Boulevard and Kreschatik Street, right across from the landmark Bessarabsky market. Those who have downloaded and installed the Satoshi Nakamoto Republic app, already available for Android and iOS devices, can enjoy a 360-view of the statue and take a selfie in front of it. In the app, they’ll see a three-headed virtual figure with a Robocop-style bottom half and a politically correct top half representing different genders and races. It has a Bitcoin symbol stamped on its bare chest and Vitalik Buterin’s face tattooed on the back.

The statue was inaugurated after a colorful procession through the streets of Kiev, with supporters waving the sky-blue banners of the republic and holding signs reading “Return the Rate of $20,000 for One Bitcoin” and “We Want Pension in Bitcoin.” The digital Nakamoto didn’t look too outlandish in the company of some of the characters in the crowd — yes, Santa Claus was there, too.

During the opening ceremony, Alexander Soroka, founder of the Satoshi Nakamoto Republic, spoke about the ideas behind the installation and why Ukraine has become the first country to honor the creator of Bitcoin in such a unique way. The event was attended by local officials such as Yuri Nazarov, director of the Department of Information and Communication Technologies of the Kiev municipal government. Representatives of innovative businesses also showed up, in addition to foreign guests such as the founder of Coin Japan, Satoshi Mishima.

Next Nakamoto Statue to Show Up on Hollywood Walk of Fame

The authors of the project plan to build a network of virtual cities, starting with a statue of Satoshi Nakamoto in the central, virtual square of each municipality. In the augmented reality (AR) of these cities, participants will be able to create virtual objects and avatars, purchase virtual plots of land and other property, construct or lease buildings and buy advertising space on billboards. All of these will be seen through smartphones and AR/VR glasses running the special application, after users scan a QR code.

According to a press release, Andrey Moroz, co-founder of the Satoshi Nakamoto Republic, has been appointed as the first mayor of the virtual Kiev city. He will be responsible for coordinating the installation of VR objects and providing advice to potential investors on the acquisition of land and property. The republic is currently looking for “founders” around the world who are willing to buy the first virtual plots.

The second virtual monument devoted to the enigmatic creator of Bitcoin will be installed on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles on Nov. 3 this year, the project’s representatives announced. The Ukrainians claim they have already found supporters for the next virtual statue to be erected in Miami, Florida.

The idea to create virtual monuments of Satoshi Nakamoto was born from a partnership between the Satoshi Nakamoto Republic and Younk, a community-based music label using blockchain. Local media reported that Raccoon World, a Ukrainian VR/AR and robotics company, was also involved. Previously, the Satoshi Nakamoto Republic team was planning an initial coin offering to raise funds to finance the purchase of an island where a Satoshi Nakamoto City was to be established and the biggest physical monument of Nakamoto built, as part of a project to set up a “virtual decentralized blockchain republic.”

Fights to Make: UFC 211

Stipe Miocic (beat Junior dos Santos) vs. Cain Velasquez: It’s weird to think of Miocic as an all-time great heavyweight, but he’s surprisingly close to that level of accomplishment - his knockout win over dos Santos makes four straight first round knockouts, and one more title defense will give him the all-time consecutive record at heavyweight at three. Admittedly, it’s a historically unstable division, but still, history is history. Anyway, the obvious top contender for Miocic would be Velasquez, the consensus top heavyweight of this era, if Velasquez is ever healthy - past that, I guess go with Derrick Lewis if he beats Mark Hunt? Or Francis Ngannou? Options are thin.

Joanna Jedrzejczyk (beat Jessica Andrade) vs. Rose Namajunas: Unlike Miocic, Jedrzejczyk’s greatness just stares you in the face, and this might have been her most masterful performance yet - faced with her most difficult style matchup to date, Jedrzejczyk tweaked her striking style and executed it perfectly, forcing Andrade to chase her and pitching a shutout on the scorecards. There’s really no challengers left for Jedrzejczyk, who’s approaching Demetrious Johnson levels of dominance within her division, but Namajunas is the obvious next contender up as far as people Joanna Champion hasn’t beaten yet - though I don’t see that fight going particularly well for her.

Demian Maia (beat Jorge Masvidal) vs. Tyron Woodley: This was Maia’s toughest test yet, but once again the Brazilian’s jiu-jitsu ruled over all, controlling Masvidal for most of the fight and winning a narrow decision that could’ve gone either way, depending on whether you value control or damage. Maia’s now the unquestioned next challenger for Woodley’s welterweight strap, and I’m happy he’s earned it - even though I fear Woodley’s tendency to play things defensively could make it an ugly, ugly contest.

Frankie Edgar (beat Yair Rodriguez) vs. Jose Aldo/Max Holloway (Jun. 3) winner: I thought Edgar was too much, too soon for uber-prospect Rodriguez, but Rodriguez didn’t even acquit himself well, as Edgar just basically took him down and beat the piss out of him until his eye swelled so badly that the fight had to be stopped. Edgar’s the obvious number two or number three guy in the division behind Aldo and Holloway, who square off in the main event of UFC 212 - if Holloway wins the title, Edgar’s the obvious next contender, and even if Aldo retains, Edgar might still be the next contender, even though Aldo beat Edgar pretty one-sidedly just last year; the only guys in the top fifteen coming off a win that Aldo hasn’t beaten are Brian Ortega, Renato Moicano, and Darren Elkins.

Junior dos Santos (lost to Stipe Miocic) vs. Andrei Arlovski/Marcin Tybura (Jun. 17) winner: Well, that was a mixed bag for dos Santos - his strategy focused around leg kicks worked wonders early, but that only seemingly forced Miocic to take things into high gear, and he rushed and finished dos Santos after just two and a half minutes. There’s not an obvious next fight for JDS - everything seems to be either a rehashed fight or would serve for the former champ to knock off a potential contender, of which there are precious few at heavyweight - so let’s go with the winner of fading vet Arlovski and Polish prospect Tybura in Singapore in a few weeks. Dos Santos probably blows through either guy, but hey, at least it’s a keep-busy fight that doesn’t damage options in the division too much.

Jorge Masvidal (lost to Demian Maia) vs. Rafael dos Anjos/Tarec Saffiedine (Jun. 17) winner: This was yet another frustrating affair for Masvidal - his individual skills remain excellent, and he did quite well defending himself against Maia here, but as always, he seemingly made just enough mistakes to lose a narrow decision. But he at least proved he finally belongs among the divisional elite, and he’s a fresh matchup for a lot of top contenders, so I’d keep him strong. Rafael dos Anjos debuts at welterweight in Singapore next month, and if the former lightweight champ looks good against Tarec Saffiedine, I like Masvidal as a next test to either see if RDA can become a contender in his new weight class, or for Masvidal to get a big name win. And, hell, if Saffiedine scores the upset, he’s earned a shot at someone like Masvidal.

Eddie Alvarez (no contest against Dustin Poirier) vs. Dustin Poirier (no contest against Eddie Alvarez): Alvarez probably should’ve lost this fight by DQ, as inconsistent rules among states have made the whole “downed opponent” scenario a complete mess, but hey, a no contest means we have an excuse for these guys to face each other again. This was fight was awesome - run it back!

Jessica Andrade (lost to Joanna Jedrzejczyk) vs. Carla Esparza/Maryna Moroz (Jun. 25) winner: Andrade got outclassed by the champion, but there’s still a lot to like - she’s young, and she’s still a relative newcomer in the division, so there’s still a bunch of interesting fights on the horizon for her. I like her against Esparza or Moroz, depending on who wins in Oklahoma City next month - Esparza as a former champ who can test if Andrade is in fact among the divisional elite, or Moroz for a matchup between physical talents that was initially supposed to take place in December.

Yair Rodriguez (lost to Frankie Edgar) vs. Chas Skelly (lost to Jason Knight): Well, Rodriguez got smashed by Edgar, and that didn’t really accomplish anything - while UFC’s top Mexican prospect will be fine in the long run, there wasn’t anything here that anyone in Rodriguez’s camp could really take as a positive sign. So it’s probably back to beating fringe top-fifteen guys for the time being, as “El Pantera” can work out the kinks in his game. This is probably doing Skelly a bit dirty - I like his wrestling as a test for Rodriguez, but Rodriguez’s physical tools probably mean this fight would look a lot like Skelly’s loss to Knight, where Skelly can’t control his opponent and then subsequently gets wrecked. But ideally, I’d want someone who’s like Darren Elkins, but a bit worse so I’m confident Rodriguez can actually beat them, and Skelly’s the closest thing to that bill.

David Branch (beat Krzysztof Jotko) vs. Derek Brunson/Daniel Kelly (Jun. 10) winner: The good news is that Branch got a huge win in his UFC return, as the former two-division WSOF champ beat a top-ten middleweight. The bad news is that the fight was pretty bad - I didn’t hate it as much as everyone else seemed to, but I also figured it would be a way more boring fight going in, and was relieved that it was just, well, bad. So it’s probably another fringy top ten guy for Branch - let’s go with the winner of the Brunson/Kelly fight in Auckland next month; it’d be interesting to see how Branch handles someone who can go all-out berserker in Brunson, or if Kelly manages to win, it’d be another step up for the Australian in one of UFC’s unlikeliest success stories.

Jason Knight (beat Chas Skelly) vs. Brian Ortega: Knight is getting really good, really quickly - he had a bit of early trouble with Skelly’s wrestling, but really got to show off his excellent grappling game here, preventing a hard-nosed wrestler from controlling him while showing off the volume striking game he’s quickly becoming known for. Brian Ortega’s apparently recovering from a massive injury, but if he’s healthy anytime soon, that’d be an excellent scrap, particularly if we got some insane grappling exchanges out of the deal. And if Ortega’s still hurt, then if Cub Swanson’s free during the next cycle of featherweight fights...just saying.

Cortney Casey (beat Jessica Aguilar) vs. Paige VanZant: I don’t think Casey will ever get to championship contender status, but her game is evolving nicely - here she showed some impressive work from her back en route to physically outclassing Aguilar, who’s looking like the division has sort of passed her by. I have no idea how to peg VanZant - she’s a physically talented prospect who isn’t anywhere as overrated as people like to pretend she is, but the way she lost to Michelle Waterson so easily is still extremely worrying - but Casey’d make for a fun next test to see exactly where VanZant stands.

James Vick (beat Polo Reyes) vs. Joe Lauzon: It looked for a second UFC might book James Vick normally after he beat Abel Trujillo, but here we was once again, outclassing a prospect to achieve pretty much nothing. He’s asked for some promotion and a ranked opponent, and while he’s not a top fifteen guy anymore, Joe Lauzon’s still one of the most reliably entertaining names in the promotion, so a fight with Vick would be super-fun and give the Texan some shine.

Krzysztof Jotko (lost to David Branch) vs. Elias Theodorou/Brad Tavares (Jul. 7) winner: Jotko’s fights are pretty much always ugly, and this time around he didn’t do enough to make things worth it. Blah. Anyway, Jotko’s still a top ten or so guy in the division, so he’d make a nice opponent for either Theodorou or Tavares, who square off on the upcoming TUF finale. Jotko/Theodorou would be a nice way for Theodorou, who’s a charismatic and marketable guy, to hopefully finally crack the rankings, while Jotko/Tavares would just serve as a way to keep two talented middleweights who really aren’t all that interesting busy.

Gadzhimurad Antigulov (beat Joachim Christensen) vs. Ion Cutelaba/Henrique da Silva (Jun. 10) winner: Antigulov pretty much ran through Christensen and might be the most underrated guy on the roster - he’s small for the division, and his game is fairly simple, just looking to take down and then overpower his opponents, but that alone can probably get him into the top fifteen in a thin division. You could rush him against a guy in the fringe of the rankings right away, and that’d be fun, but I’d rather go with the winner of the Cutelaba/da Silva fight in Auckland next month. Honestly, you could probably go with anyone at the level of, say, Gian Villante or worse.

Enrique Barzola (beat Gabriel Benitez) vs. Hacran Dias: This was a pretty great win for Barzola, as the Peruvian beat a pretty solid mid-level gatekeeper in Benitez and has pretty much already out-achieved all of his TUF: Latin America 2 castmates. Throwing him against Brazilian grinder and sometimes prospect-killer Dias is probably too much, too soon, but it’s a chance at a solid win and damned if I know what else to do with Dias.

Jessica Aguilar (lost to Cortney Casey) vs. Viviane Pereira/Jamie Moyle (Jun. 3) loser: Aguilar lost fairly handily here, and the former top strawweight in the world seems to be looking at a division that’s passed her by. Pereira and Moyle square off in a fun undercard bout at UFC 212, and if nothing else, Aguilar shouldn’t be at a sizable athleticism disadvantage against the loser, which is about as much as you can ask for to see where Aguilar’s at at this point.

Chase Sherman (beat Rashad Coulter) vs. Mark Godbeer/Justin Willis (Jul. 16) winner: It was good for Sherman to get a win to stick in the UFC, and the young Mississippian got some notoriety for being in such a crazy brawl to boot, but there’s still a ton of work to be done, as Sherman gassed badly and let a one-legged Coulter back into their fight. So as tantalizing as the ceiling is for Sherman, I’d just keep putting him against fellow lower-level heavyweights - either Godbeer or Willis, who square off on the Scotland card in July, would be a fine next fight.

Polo Reyes (lost to James Vick) vs. Felipe Silva: Reyes was probably destined to top out as a lower-level action lightweight, but UFC throwing him to James Vick sort of hurried that process up. Felipe Silva, who starched Shane Campbell in his UFC debut this past August, is a bit of an unknown, but would probably make for a fun undercard fight, and hell, that’s what Polo Reyes is for.

Gabriel Benitez (lost to Enrique Barzola) vs. Chris Gruetzemacher: Benitez is talented, and has all the makings of a Mexican cult favorite, but Barzola badly exposed his lack of takedown defense here. Gruetzemacher isn’t particularly dynamic, but he’s a solid wrestler, so he’d be a solid test to make sure that Benitez at least has enough to stick in the UFC.

Rashad Coulter (lost to Chase Sherman) vs. Dmitry Poberezhets: Coulter pretty much did all you could ask for - his leg got destroyed fairly early in the fight with Sherman, but he gutted through it and turned things into an awesome brawl that made both guys $50,000 richer. The lower reaches of heavyweight are pretty much a jumble of guys you could put against each other - what the heck, let’s go with Poberezhets, a talented Ukrainian who was supposed to debut on this card, but got hurt and replaced by Coulter.

Joachim Christensen (lost to Gadzhimurad Antigulov) vs. Jake Collier: Christensen got blown out here, and is the kind of guy who could either wash out of the UFC quickly or stick around until he retires depending on the matchmaking - he’s technically solid everywhere, but nearing 40 and not particularly athletic, he’s at a deficit against a bunch of opponents. Collier sort of walks the line, as an athletic guy who never really seems to have much of a gameplan, so that could make for a fun lower-level bout.
