Well the TS has decency at least.
Not like the butthurt noobs that argue that Nate is a tougher opponent than RDA (yeah, some of them really think that it seems).

Yes we do mind...please stick with your original plan and GTFO.
Also, take all the others tap out surrenders with you.
If you want to stay, as punishment you have to become a Holly fan...no fan of other fighters. Cuz she don't tap.
But we'd actually really appreciate it if you just left...with all the other surrenders.

The longer I am a fan of MMA, the less I understand the mindset of it's fans, ESPECIALLY the ones that post here.
I couldn't stand the UFC shaking up (what IMO) was the standard for "big league" MMA. I screamed bloody murder about adding to the five core WC's (LW-WW-MW-LHW&HW).
I did however like these male WC's (with the obvious exclusion of FLW) when they were in the WEC. They did not reduce the average fight per year total of the core 5 WC's to be too low to really have a defined "sport". My hatred/ disdain was however extremely calculated and for very solid valid reasons.
The best I can explain it is comparison to the opposite extreme. Yes, I think 162 games in a season may very well be overkill. With that said, every team in MLB plays every other team in MLB several times. By the end of the season, the standing (the equivalent of the UFC WC rankings) is indisputable, and their rankings for the playoffs set in stone. (there is NOTHING like the dispute in MLB which teams advance to the playoffs in the way that there is with what fighters get ranked and or offered title shots).
The key is to having enough contests to make the clear distinction between the best and the rest. This is what (IMO) has killed the UFC since 2010 when we did have a far clear picture of the standings in our sport. If MLB consisted of a total of 10 games in a season, there would be nobody that could possibly agree on the picture that the W/L record painted insofar as Best vs. the rest.
When top 10-15ish ranked UFC fighters in a WC compete 3x per year in their respective WC's we have a far clearer picture of who is who than the current 1.4 fight per year average that the UFC has denigrated to in the past two years since eclipsing 600 total fighters on the UFC roster.
The major problem is the maturity level of the MMA fans that will never allow this (MMA) to develop into a well defined "sport". It is far too important (W/L record) for immature children to comprehend that with the required level of fight activity, EVERY SINGLE FIGHTER will amass NUMEROUS loses on their records, and instead of the "end of the world", that is an absolute great highly desirable thing.
Almost every fighter that acquires 30+ wins also acquire the better part of DOUBLE DIGIT losses. ALL fighters suffer AT LEAST a handful of loses in the process of acquiring 30 wins. Unfortunately, the children label the MMA Iron Men as "cans" by definition!
Connor is a very strange case. He wasn't undefeated like many of the inexperienced newbie fighters that the UFC attempts to market us in the major league trademark Octagon as GOAT material. I wasn't a fan when he came in, and clearly understood that his grappling was his Achilles heel. I have NEVER (1st UFC event was UFC 3) watched pre fight talk crap from day one right up until today, so my only exposure to McGregors "rap" is this forum. I became a fan due to his impressive and entertaining style of fighting.
PS, I was FAR from young when UFC 3 took place!
I can easily see children crying like (well they do) when the UFC sells them an undefeated fighter with a hand full of LOW LEVEL minor league wins as a goat, and they fail at a very basic MMA discipline. (ie. Ronda, Sage, Holm . . .)
I fail to see how or why Conner is cast into this lot. He clearly had a below average ground game, and had already been exposed as such in the minor leagues. He clearly had serious development required in his ground game to be one of the best fighters in the UFC. With that said, he provided numerous very entertaining fights with decent caliber opponents, created highlight reels, and even in his first (UFC) loss, continued to do the same.
I guess we should be thankful that the children go back to something more suited for their level of maturity.
Maybe now we take advantage of this exodus and can begin to hold more mature and intelligent MMA conversations in this forum!
