if he was an american wrestler they would have said he was smart, but he's brazilian and not a wrestler so it was boring...
american fans...
Boring is subjective. It always has been, and always will be. Some folks find classical boring and love rock. Other folks love classical and find rock boring. Same for action movies/dramas. Same for beer/wine. Same for different foods, different books, different sports (note that Americans tend to find soccer boring and love North American football, Brazilians tend to love soccer and find find North American football boring).
The point is, people aren't inconsistent in finding one thing boring and a different thing entertaining, they're just being people.
I can never understand why MMA fans seem to think everyone should agree on what fighters are boring and what fighters are entertaining. Its like expecting everyone to like the same flavor of ice-cream, or the same band, or the same movie. Kids in grade six think everyone should like the same thing. We're supposed to know better by the time we graduate from elementary school.
For instance, I'm what seems to be one of a small group on Sherdog who likes both Anderson's and GSP's fights (for different reasons); I also like both classical music and rock. But I have no difficulty at all in understanding why some people find GSP entertaining and Anderson boring and other people find GSP boring and Anderson entertaining. The longer you live, the more often you see just how varied people's interests are.
