Default For my UFC hating friends

I know some of you will enjoy this, although I think it's trash. Here's the link:

Here are my comments:

What a whiny bitch:

1. First he roots for the demise of the organization responsible for most of the high level MMA existing on this planet.

2. He bitches about blowouts, then slobs all over the Fedor-Sylvia fight.

3. He criticizes the "UFC" rules, when every MMA organization in America has to operate under them.

4. He criticizes Forrest Griffin for no reason. In the end, the Griffin-Rampage fight was a close fight, so it going one way or ther other isn't a travesty.

5. MMA fans have missed this style since Pride? Wow, I guess the UFC isn't making money hand over fist then. Because all that "crappy action" is sure making a hell of a lot of money. How many buys did Affliction, the "superior" (bullshit) MMA event get?

Who are the UFC haters here?

It wasn't a great, nor completely factual, article, but most of it is offered as his opinion, so I don't get the big outrage. There is plenty to dislike about JB's operation, even if he didn't touch on most of the issues. Is it the best MMA product overall right now? Yes. Is Fedor Vladmirovich a top-5 HWT in the world? Maybe.

This article sucked and you know no one here hates the UFC - we watch everyone of their shows timely, we have attended events and we like all their fighters (except for Bisping). I just hate Dana and Lorenzo - and you know that and both Dingo and I have told you that.

Since you always defend Dana and UFC management to the end, following the same logic, I could in return accuse you of hating Dream, Affliction and imply you hate their fighters. Wouldn't make much sense - right?

We love him because he possesses the same qualities as Maximus Decimus Meridius or William Wallace...the big difference is that "The Last Emperor" is a real man...and he keeps proving it.

Does this guy not know William Wallace was a real person?

Dana White rebuilt the UFC, so he was charged with the task of making it legit. Before the acquisition of PRIDE, the UFC was unproven against the rest of the talent the world had to offer. So, UFC acquires PRIDE, Dana White talks about how tip top the talent in the UFC is yada yada yada and one by one the fixtures of PRIDE fall to UFC fighters.
Ironic? All of this happens in front of millions of fans while fighters like Forrest Griffin (who is hard to hate but is technically a one dimensional fighter) gets story-booked into defeating men like Shogun and Rampage.

Is he saying he thinks it was fixed?

The only believable undisputed champ in the UFC is Anderson Silva.

He says this then later says....

I would love to see Uriajah Faber, GSP, BJ Penn, Anderson Silva, and others in a sport where hype isn't needed.

WEC (ZUFFA) champ, UFC champ, UFC champ, and then the one he says is the only believable champ in the UFC?????

In addition to this, the UFC is increasingly boring, the octagon style cage fighting, with its no kicking when kneeling (and other similar ridiculous striking rules) isn't standup friendly.

What other league in the US allows Kicking the the head when kneeling???? Not his beloved Affliction.

With the success of this venue, and Donald Trump's business savvy, the support for Affliction will increase, especially with a Fedor/Couture fight looming in the future.

If you look at the history Trump has had just about as many failures as he has had triumphs.

And so on and So forth......This guy is just a plain hater that wants to polish Fedor's nob.
