To people saying that what Colby is doing is working...

[nanika]

He might be a virgin, yes. True. Hadn't considered that.

Any man who won't touch a whore without latex gloves spent too much time at his mother's feet. Or under her skirt. They have showers and condoms for that.

But if he didn't want to touch them I'd expect he wouldn't ask them for the pose.

Plus he rolls around with sweaty dirty ass men all fucking day and has for decades. And you think he's afraid of the hygienic considerations around touching a woman who will suck his cock and give him two more holes to boot?

He would need to go sit at momma's feet again then...

lol it was a joke bro about porn stars being nasty. i just do not see the appeal outside of the obvious wanking. most porn stars are not even that hot, that is why they are porn stars. if WMMA didnt exist im sure some of the WMMA fighters would be porn stars. most "porn stars" are hookers who also make videos as well.

every club, bar, concert has women that look better than most porn stars.

 

[Blazmo]

Look at where are most guys with large number of followers are from.
Then study which countries are currently produce the most spammers and bot armies on the internet.

It's guys from US are usuallythose who tend to not hire army of spam accounts to boost their stats.

Fear the New Zealand spam bot army!

Absolutely. If you want LOOKS you'd look at models, IG models, fitness models.... if you want whorish fantasies, sexual skills and open mindedness displayed openly, porn stars.

Nobody ever suggested porn was the last bastion of physical beauty!

But most adult men don't find them "nasty" as much as just working girls. Everybody's got to eat. I can't fault them. They found the lowest common denominator among men and how to make a buck from it. Can't blame 'em.

And you seem to have a real disdain for hookers! Soften your heart, brother. Most have killed no one and have worked to make men's cocks happy. Hard to hate on that...

 

[MRT]

Colby: interim title fight after beating only one legit contender, has endless threads made about him on Sherdog...two things none of the other guys have.

it's working.

 

[mudrubble]

'porn STAR"

LMAO

Well among the army of porn actresses I noticed some ppl on this board knew her name. Then I discovered that she'd been there in the thumbnails I'd never clicked on.

So relatively speaking, yeah, a porn star.

Geez, what's with the hate? Is it hate-a-hooker day on Sherdog? Y'all really hating the poor whores? i don't get it. All they do is please....

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

Colby is talked about more than all of those fighters.

Possibly combined.

no disdain for hookers at all.

im just not a fan of this current culture of "its classy to act like a whore."

Cardi B goes "i let him do what he wants, he buys me yves st luarent" (i do have something against her lol)

the way i see it, a lot of the culture today is trying to make being a stripper or escort or whatever a "cool thing." it is similar to what happened to drug dealing. all these songs and the culture that the youth listen to talk about how awesome it is to sell drugs, have illegal weapons etc. that was oriented towards young men. and you can see its effect on segments of todays younger people.

now young women are hearing how "cool" it is to strip or hook. Hey, famous men will pay you MONEY to let you show them off and sleep with them. Prostitution has always existed, should exist and should be legalized.

but it should not be promoted and romanticized and definitely not considered cool. for the most part it is a fairly shitty life with a short career and a major emotional toll.

Colby: 8-1 in the UFC, 4 finishes, just taken out two studs, about to fight for an interm belt: 46.6K Instagram followers

O’Malley: 2-0 in the UFC, no finishes both fights against nobodies: 236K followers

Zabit: 3-0 in the UFC, 2 finishes, all fights so far have been against nobodies, doesn’t speak a word of English : 447K Instagram followers

Marc Diakiese: 3-2 in the UFC, two finishes all wins against nobodies: 61.5K Instagram followers

Isreal: 2-0 in the UFC, one finish, both wins to nobodies: 110K Instagram followers

I’m sure I could find more examples but I think I’ve made my case.

So he has the least exciting style, the worst personality, and the least Instagram followers


............but he's getting a title shot.........and we're talking about him right now............


hmmmmm

The other fighters you named are not heels, Colby is a heel who posts Star Warsspoilers. People don't follow him but they still get triggered by things he say. Watch him tweet out Avengers spoilers and get thousands of retweets and likes.

 

[Grapplefest]

Those three are extremely exciting to watch, Colby is a boring lay and prayer.

 

[Harlekin]

Instagram followers should be part of UFC rankings. More so than records and talent. It should all be about likes, pokes, retweets, etc. SMMA Social Media Martial Arts.

We already have that, it's called WMMA. Also them in P4P

 

[Arne Rud]

Im not a fan

 

[Toco]

zabit 100% bought his followers

 

[JosephTessaro]

I don't Instagram. I watch fights.

 

[DeeDubb]

Isn't IG about pictures or something? What if he's just a shitty photographer?

 

[Race Freelie]

You can buy social media followers as mentioned.

And if Russian, you can buy a presidential election as well !!

 

[mmaElite53]

The irony of people making threads specifically to hate on Colby and then saying his heel act isn’t working...

Zabit and Sean were highly touted before entering the UFC and their success only added to their hype.

I'll give you Marc Diakiese

Isreal was already a highly decorated kickboxer before getting to the UFC and was well known in the hardcore community.

Colby was a no name with little to no promotional backing and had he not made the heel turn, he'd probably still be at 10-15k followers, probably not even have gotten the Maia or RDA fights.

Plus you're missing the point. Followers on Instagram indicates popularity, which is not exactly what Colby's going for. He's going for infamy. He wants to draw attention purely from the hate he gets. He's not trying to be the witty badguy like many before him. He knows he's corny as shit and knows people hate that stuff. That's the genius of it.

The fact that you made this thread means his gimmick is working.

 

[Sirwastealot]

Colby will never become a draw. He's too annoying.

Some people seem to think it's only about being loud and flashy and you get views/fans. Casuals are dumb but they aren't THAT dumb. You need to have at least some kind of charisma to get a fan base.

Colby is the MMA version of a hacky comedian that tries all kinds of gimmicks but never makes it.

 

[Simian Raticus]

Lol Instagram/Twitter is no measure of anything.

It's a fairly decent measure of public interest, which is what Colby is desperately trying to generate.

He's the one trying to play that game.

Don't be mad at the TS for pointing oit that he isn't succeeding at it.
