On May 29th, the UFC will be in Liverpool, England at the Echo Arena with the Main Event that is gonna send shockwaves throughout the world once the introductions are made. A fight for a top position in the Welterweight Division will be going down as #1 ranked Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson tries to hold his spot in the division against the undefeated #8 ranked Darren Till. This fight is already something that is gonna make the top 5 in the division real interesting, especially when it comes to the next potential opponent for the current king of the division the Welterweight Champion Tyron Woodley.

Walking into this bout Wonderboy has already faced the champion twice coming up short with 1 draw and a majority decision loss. He recently faced Jorge Masvidal last November and defeated him by unanimous decision with a very good performance as Wonderboy did what he does best and its be patient, also strategic.

His Karate stance gives him the ability to be as slick as he is with the footwork and phenomenal kicks he will throw in your direction. A win for Stephen Thompson will not only upset Darren Till and his undefeated streak, but it could very well set him up for a bout with the winner of the Interim-Title fight between Rafael Dos Anjos vs Colby Covington coming up in June.

There is also the option of giving him another fight with the champion Tyron, but many of us do not see that happening as we know how Woodley is. He has been the ruler of that division for some time now as he has dismantled any and everyone who has tried to take the belt so he has every right to be that way, Especially when it comes to facing Wonderboy for the 3rd time.

The Undefeated #8 Darren Till who is the self-proclaimed best striker in the division has destroyed everyone who has stepped in front of him with performances that cannot be compared to others. With his most recent victory being over "Cowboy" Donald Cerrone as he shattered Cerrone's nose in the 1st round with his incredible striking. Which led him to get the victory via TKO in the very first round. Now everybody knows how much of a savage Cowboy so this was a huge impact by Till.

A win over Wonderboy will be absolutely huge for Darren as he will skyrocket and break through the top 5 rankings in the division. He could very well get a shot at the Winner of Covington Vs Dos Anjos. He can also a fight with Kamaru Usman or Damian Maia.

Either way, Darren Till is on his way to a very well deserved title shot is he can destroy Wonderboy like he did the others. The UFC's newest rising star will have all eyes on him as he will be in his own backyard in Liverpool, England, trying to make a statement to the rest of the division.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
