Do you love or hate Kamaru Usman?

[Takes Two To Tango]

Since he's fighting this saturday, I thought lets see what the numbers will be like on here for this man.

In time he maybe considered one of the GOATs.

 

[Slatersan]

Hes okay

 

[B-Level]

His fighting skills and fights in general have become much more enjoyable over the years. But everytime he opens his mouth for interviews he reminds me why he has very little fan support.

talking about Canelo and jumping to 205 for a title shot is just ridiculous and unrealistic

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Dislike him his fights are usually boring and his personality is fake as fuck.

 

[sdpdude9]

Appreciate his skills as a top level fighter. As a person, pretty indifferent. He tries a little too hard and can be a bit cringy at times, but I don’t dislike him because of it.

 

[Leonard Haid]

I've never met him. He's never done anything horrible or heroic from a humanitarian standpoint as far as I know. He's just a regular guy who happens to be a great fighter. I have zero emotions invested in him. Indifferent, my indifference being exacerbated by his personality being pretty blah, at least what he projects publicly, which is all that I know of course.

I get a bit personally invested in fighters who wear their hearts on their sleeve at times, who expose their inner selves, like a Sean Strickland and most recently Paolo Costa. Kamaru is the typical strong and stoic alpha who never reveals anything that might be perceived as weakness.

Enjoy watching him fight though, being a big MMA fan.

Don't mind the acne, he's just a growing boy going through puberty.

 

[Prince Nephilim]

I don’t love him but I think he’s proven himself to be a legit Champion and going on to be a legendary WW.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

I HATE the fact he cherrypicks his defences. I’m sick of his LHW bullshit. At this point it’s looking like he wants to avoid Borz at all costs.

I dislike him.

 

[BFoe]

Indifferent. Respect his talent, but not particularly interested in him from a fan’s POV. If he retired today I wouldn’t care particularly.

 

[gaffbyknees2]

It's early in the poll but the fact that most are voting indifferent is the problem with Usman. It would even be much better if he was hated. If you want to be a star and make big bank you have to be a polarizing figure. Be a huge heel or big babyface to borrow terms from pro wrestling but the WORST thing people can be towards you... is indifferent.

 

[Sweater of AV]

I like him. He's definitely grown on me. Hard not to respect what he's accomplished.

 

[dragonsfly]

His a great guy.. Hard to dislike him

That's very true, you don't want to be the one where no cares about you at all. That's the worse position to be in, you rather be hated and talked about.

 

[sfer1]

I voted "I'm indifferent." I respect his very good skills as a fighter, but I don't like his personality. He seems fake to me.

 

[WhiteMousse]

I like him a lot more now. He's an exciting fighter and he's shown that he can grow past the hugging sessions of old.
He shut Masvidal up which was great.
He extended both love and respect to Colby which was amazing and to be commended.
Also when I saw him with his sweet daughter it was just heart-melting. He seems like a really good dad

 

[Dude Incredible]

what the fuck is with these love or hate fighter threads?

 

[NoSmilez]

He is a nice guy but he tries too hard to be a badass.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

what the fuck is with these love or hate fighter threads?

lol I don't know I just thought I'd make a series of them. It's fun and also interesting to see what the numbers will be like. : - )

 

[Jesus H. Sherdog]

I only dislike him because i feel that he’s seriously the most overrated fighter beating the same mediocre guys over and over.

Dana just loves him because he got rid of Woodley, when really Woodley was just done anyways.
