Any fighter you wouldn’t talk to?

[Adjutant]

Let’s say you’re walking down the street with family or friends. It’s Friday night Main Street let’s say, and Fighter X walks by You really don’t like fighter X, but do you say hi?

I’ll go first. I really don’t like Rockhold, Lesnar,or the Diaz bros, BUT, I’d definitely go introduce myself.
However, if Palhares or Covington walked by, I wouldn’t say shit.

Who’s you’re fighter that you just wouldn’t approach because you dislike them that much?

Now, I know I’m going to get flamed 10 ways from Sunday, because this is Sherdog after all
But once your done attacking the question, feel free to answer.

 

[Texas]

Mackenzie Dern, there’s too much of a language barrier

 

[KB Warrior]

All of them. I would let them eat their riblets in peace.

 

[Perrichet]

Aldo. Would be like talking to a rock I'd imagine

 

[accolyte1022]

None of them.

I don't like people bugging me, I would extend the same courtesy to them.

 

[RiseAboveHat]

I would never approach any fighter, or celebrity for that mater, in a restaurant.

 

[blaseblah]

Colby. No interest in talking to that guy.

 

[KB Warrior]

TS just slides into the booth next to them so they can’t get out and starts talking while grabbing their french fries.

 

[Sonny Qc]

The Diaz brothers.
I feel I would leave the conversation dumber.

 

[Fatal Catro]

Let them eat and leave them alone.

 

[SomniumRabidum]

I would only bother a very, very small handful of fighters... I'd feel like a pain-in-the-ass fan disturbing them when they're out living their lives but there are a select few I wouldn't be able to resist at least a quick handshake.

Outside of those very select few fighters, I have none of the "omg it's someone from TV!" urges that seem to plague most of humanity nowadays...

 

[IMPmmath]

Aldo. Would be like talking to a rock I'd imagine

There you go

 

[MMAfanboy4life]

Probably Lesnar, he seems like the type to tell a fan to go fck themself, and I wouldn’t like to be beta’d like that.

 

[Thepaintbucket]

Nate Diaz might flip a switch and try and fight you

Colby is lame- probably try to bully you

Drunk Bisping

 

[hedidhisownstunts]

i've talked to most the fighters i met. including heckling Sylvia to his face at MFC in AC after the first Arlovski fight. he proved me wrong and didn't hurt me. thanks, tim. sorry, i was a dick.

i've also heckled Joe Rogan, screaming "retard strength!!!" at him. not sorry, that was funny.

 

[[insert_name_here]]

I hate ‘im so much, I won’t even mention his name…


Somewhat related...
No hate, but if I saw this Cat, I probably wouldn’t approach him for an autograph…

Alright you fucking momo, let’s say it’s on the street.

Sherdog to the rescue. The spirit of the question is obvious

 

[MMAfanJabroniJew]

Wouldn't talk to Lesnar , Overeem , Rockhold , non of them look particularly friendly or approachable.

 

[dc007]

I wouldn't bother anyone trying to just eat. I saw Josh Barnett in a bar once and said hello and got a pic.

 

[Rampage_Jackson]

Depending on the situation I would be happy to have a quick word with any UFC fighter I recognized from over the years. I don't like bothering people most of the time though.
