Derrick Lewis Latest Fighter to Blast Colby Covington

Kevin Lee Would Favor Conor McGregor in Fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov

Miesha Tate Says She’s ‘Checked Out’ on Jon Jones Saga: ‘I Don’t Really Care if He Comes Back’

These are 3/8 articles currently on the Sherdog website. My question is why are you reporting gossip and not actually news/events/real articles? Are you telling me that any MMA fighter who doesn't like another fighter or favors one in a match on a podcast,news station, internet, etc. that it is worth reporting on now?

Last week I saw an article along the lines of "Joe Rogan wants to talk to help negotiate a deal to get Ben Askren get in the UFC." I got really stoked and when I read it I realized whoever wrote the article just took whatever Joe had said in the podcast and tried making it seem official. So Joe Rogan says "man i would love to see you in the ufc and I would do anything to make it happen" and all the sudden it pops up on a MMA News Website saying "Joe Rogan willing to help Ben Askren reach deal in UFC?"

Garbage. Kinda like Cain V's last fight. If you don't show up and perform like your supposed to, it hurts your reputation. So for Cains next fight, I don't know "which Cain" is gonna show up. This is how I feel about the Sherdog writers lately. If you have nothing to write and are out of ideas, don't write anything and save your writing skills for the proper stories.

If we care about fighters opinions, we will follow them on social media. Please focus on news/actual events rather than immature martial artists gossiping about each other. Miesha is a very good example. Had a lot to say about Ronda when she quit fighting (and sherdog wrote an article about it) but didn't have an answer for her in the cage both times and left humiliated. And now shes kicking Jon Jones when he's down, and Sherdog is reporting on it....
 
@TeTe slacking again ?

100% agreed

That Ben Askren bullshit was ridiculous. Joe was stoned out of his mind when he said that.
Well, he always is, but you get what I mean. Shouldn't be reported as news.
 
Okay, cool guy. What news of the day would you like to cover?
I hate to break it to you but MMA "news" is not that interesting.
 
journalism in 2018 is full of clickbaits and stupid drama news, fucking morons
 
I don’t think I’ve ever even been to sherdog.com for news.

I adressed this issue. I said it would be better to not write anytthing for a day or two rather than write gossip. I would rather log onto sherdog and there be no new articles for the day, rather than articles that are about nothgng and are filler.

I think it’s because MMA has no journalists really, just TMZ style rip offs.
 
Stop complaining...

Nobody is forcing you to click on these articles

The stuff you want is also being reported.

1. Why do you read the articles you aren't interested in? Seems easy not to click, no?
2. How much can you complain about for something you don't pay for? This isn't the NYT or The Economist. It's free.
3. A forum thread seems like a great way to address your grievances. I am sure the Sherdog writers are glued to the forum in the off chance someone will offer them writing advice.
 
who cares what mysha tate has to say,lol

what audience is listening to this chick...<{cum@me}>

Im complaining because Sherdog is my favorite website for news and MMA related articles. So if your favorite website started releasing crappy articles that you felt were detrimental to its high quality status, you would be upset as well.

Its like going to your favorite news station for the uipdates on the world, and all their talking about is how much everyone hates trump....ITS GOSSIP NOT NEWS
