Does anyone else have fighters they irrationally dislike, even if they’re not your archetype scumbag?

I’m not talking about Ian Garry, khamzat or Adesanya who have pretty notorious hate groups (for valid reasons). I’m talking about fighters, who you irrationally dislike for whatever reason or other.

I’ll go first:

Michael Chandler - gonna have a separate article on the DW privilege of this lad. Never fought a true contender (ducked tsarukyan and makhachev when they were up and coming) yet gets every opportunity handed to him. Also, the cringe in those “motivational” posts of his…

Dan Hooker- no doubt, a real BMF and a true blood and guts warrior but why does it feel every split decision goes his way. Also like chandler, he pretty much refused to fights backwards in the rankings (twice in 12 fights) and can be delusional at times with some of his statements (might be the CTE)

Joaquin Buckley - viral KO or not, the guy just comes across as really irritating, with one of those super hittable faces. There was a rumor that he’s been kicked out of multiple gyms, and watching him on the mic, I can see why. Did really enjoy holland koing him.

Chris Curtis - really bad loser. Pretty much has a victim mentality when it comes to losses, blaming the judges for robbery’s in fights he clearly lost and claiming fighters run away, when they fight smart against him.

How about yourself Sherbros? What do you think of my picks and are there other fighters who for whatever irrational reason you dislike.
 
I can come up with much more valid reasons to dislike Hooker and Buckley than the majority of people who come up with BS to hate Garry over.

Hell, you listed some. Those don't seem irrational at all, save the Chandler one
 
Yes, I have 2

One is Josh Koschek - I loathe him
A bully, a sneak, a crappy fighter with a big mouth

The other is Anderson Silva
Fake ass, steroid cheating , banjo playing lMichael Jackson voiced, ego maniac

One of the happiest days of my life is when the Chris knocked him out while he was clowning
 
I didnt like Kenny Florian. He never did nothin to me or anything bad but I looked at him and underestimated him as a fighter and it made me more mad when he would win when i didnt think he would. But I got over it and respect him and realize how wrong I was.

On paper or not, I hate Anthony Smith.
 
I fucking hate Stipe Miocic, he is a corny old man.

He IS corny, I'll agree. And even though I find his corniness endearing, I have to respect someone who hates my guy for what he actually is instead of the myriad bullshit takes about him.
 
Frankie Edgar
'Cowboy' Cerrone
Stipe
Weidman, Serra (+Longo).
Hendricks
Joe Lauzon
Matt Brown

Anthony Smith I have a mix of pity and contempt for.

I also hate Dan Henderson, but even though he has ball washers everywhere among the fanbase he is a legit scumbag and doesn't fit the criteria. Just look at the guy's wedding photos.
