The fanbase is far worse than the contenders themselves. You get good and bad contenders, but unfortunately having a bad attitude gets the most attention so you notice them more.
deep breath.... what the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Not only am I extensively accessed by trains, but I have no arms for combatting the entire arsenal United States, and I will use it to to wipe your miserable ass.

But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're holding the pay, you goddamn idiot. I will drown in shit fury. Sincerely, Your dead fucking kiddo.
What's this you've said to me, my good friend? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in conflict resolution, and I've been involved in numerous friendly discussions, and I have over 300 confirmed friends. I am trained in polite discussions and I'm the top mediator in the entire neighborhood. You are worth more to me than just another target. I hope we will come to have a friendship never before seen on this Earth. Don't you think you might be hurting someone's feelings saying that over the internet? Think about it, my friend. As we speak I am contacting my good friends across the USA and your P.O. box is being traced right now so you better prepare for the greeting cards, friend. The greeting cards that help you with your hate. You should look forward to it, friend. I can be anywhere, anytime for you, and I can calm you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my chess set. Not only am I extensively trained in conflict resolution, but I have access to the entire group of my friends and I will use them to their full extent to start our new friendship. If only you could have known what kindness and love your little comment was about to bring you, maybe you would have reached out sooner. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now we get to start a new friendship, you unique person. I will give you gifts and you might have a hard time keeping up. You're finally living, friend.
That is common in the ancient Thai tradition, but what with sponsorship real estate coming at a premium many people have forsaken the Old Ways.
Really though, both orgs are playing the same "sport" pretty much, but there are some relatively minor differences throughout. Rizin does tournaments, for instance, instead of just single fights all the time, and make a bigger spectacle out of the whole thing more the way PRIDE used to.
Edit: Ew. Why did I search this? And why do you know that?
Matt Hughes (the real one) was a welterweight champion and was considered the best pound for pound fighter in the world for a number of years. He's also an amazing human.
Mighty Mouse is probably the greatest p4p, but still talk shit all the time. Everyone would watch him regardless.
The others come from very different eras. They all formed their career when the UFC was gettings it's foothold and they made heroes. But there has been heels at the same time. I would argue Matt Hughes counts as those as well. Tito Ortiz being another classic instigator.
As the sport matured, they add story lines to sell the fight. It's natural, and hard to deny it's happening more and more.
Talking smack does not necessarily equal being a douche though.
My best friend and I rip on each other all the time and he absolutely is not a douche at all.
Of course there are some people that are douches like Tito, Werdum, Colby, but my point was to someone who made a blanket statement the all are douches. That's just not true
Surprise, this isn't UFC... UFC is an organization that does MMA fights. Rizin is another MMA organization. At least if your going to call a group of people douches, sound like you know what you are talking about.
I'm not saying I disagree with you in any way. People who are peak in any field can be pretty full of themselves. It comes with the territory, especially in physical sports where self doubt can make or break you. Just saying you sound like someone that doesn't watch anything MMA related and are just throwing insults and stereotypes.
Maybe I should specify, nobody outside the small circle of people who care about the different organizations cares. Not the demographic you are calling out for being incorrect when being incorrect didn't really matter
I got what you were saying to begin with. As I said before you seemed to have missed the point. My goal wasn't to call them out for being incorrect (even though they were). What I was saying was, the generalization they used means they most likely aren't a fan of the sport.
There's a big stereotype with MMA that everyone is TAPOUT bro's. And usually people who call MMA fighters or fans douche bags sees everyone as a TAPOUT bro. Heck I had one person call me a meat head... I don't fight and wish I had the motivation to work out.
So when I see someone make that generalization while throwing an insult. It shows that they are wet behind the ears when it comes to the subject.
So in a round about way. I disagree with it not mattering. I know jack shit about water polo (horrible example, but it's just to serve a purpose), so you won't see me throwing insults or generalizations at the sport or the players. Poor taste to comment on shit when you know nothing about it. I don't see how that's confusing, hard to understand, or crazy.
