Robin Black on JRE: "There is no such thing as the casual fan."

[ThePatriot]

From that standpoint, chasing a casual audience it's true

But I watch maybe 5 cards a year, how am I not a casual viewer)

 

[Hardkore]

How can anyone who listens to Schaub call someone else a name?

Solid point. Like the pot calling the kettle

 

[rockylion]

I really hope Robin Black disappears, everything he says is pure rubbish

 

[Phisher]

Whatever credibility Black had should have disappeared after the embarrassing lead up to the McGregor/May fight, but we're not living in a sane world.

 

[daltonames]

His pretentiousness and arrogance has gotten out of control

Well, pretty sure he got fired from his job last year. If he wasn't arrogant, he'd prob jump off a bridge.

He probably eats pizza with a knife and fork too.

I listen to the MMA hour and I think Ariel is a tool, I listen to Luke Thomas podcast and I think he is a cuck

It’s just an MMA podcast my dude, has lots of fighters I’m a fan of on there

He's the absolute worst. Failed fighter, who overcompensates via the most ridiculous word salad analysis ever.
"This is a battle of anticipation within empty spaces vs aggressive movement in unconscious counter space ..."
puke.

 

[INTERL0PER]

Robin Black is fascinating... How in the fuck has a guy so excruciatingly annoying and clueless become a person that people listen to?

I just don't get it.

 

[MikeyB]

I've listened to 5 minutes of Robin Black and that was entirely too long.

 

[WarriorPoet1]

actual fighting yea bloodlust has been with us from the beginning anything fighting related but not fighting yea he's right

 

[Hardkore]

Lol that was a great episode. My friends and I were just talking about that episode too a few weeks ago

what's the opposite of a hardcore fan then?

How do you define a hardcore fan?

Joe Rogan is the Godfather of the so called "hardcore fans" and even he doesn't follow MMA religiously. On the other hand, you have Ariel Helwani (who is vehemently hated by many hardcore fans) who can remember UFC numbers and headlines like the back of his hand.

Also GSP, the most noncontroversial GOAT, doesn't follow MMA religiously. He recently said it on the JRE podcast. He follows a few guys he respects, and the rest he doesn't care for.

All these labels of "hardcore fan" and "casual fan" are just meaningless labels used to create an elitist delusion in some people's minds. It is similar to Right Wingers calling Left Wingers "Libtards" "SJWs" "Cucks" and etc, and Left Wingers calling Right Wingers "NAZIs" "Facist" "Racist" and etc.

They are just distractions that are used to hide a weak position and/or to impede productive conversations.

Joe also thought Rousey could beat up men

I have all the DVDs, which I bought like 10 years ago, haha.

Some of those episodes are pure genius

 

[SuperNerd]

He was reaching and I don't think even convinced himself. He looked at Rogan after looking like he was thinking "..right? ..yeah? You buying this?"

I think he's right in terms of channel surfers though.

Idiot fans that will buy whatever the UFC shits out.
