Fellow sherbros, have you ever tried to recruit non-MMA fans into this crazy sport. I myself, like fellow sherdoggers, am a virgin living in my mother’s basement. I pray to the Just Bleed God, and believe fighters live rent free in each others heads. I am a loser but am self-aware enough to not tell others I am a MMA fan to avoid public shaming but there was a time I tried to convert people into MMA fans.
One particular fight I remember was Nick Diaz vs Carlos Condit. I really wish people could understand the buzz going into the Condit-Diaz fight. Fans legitimately thought it was going to be MMA’s version of Gatti-Ward or Hagler-Hearns. A lot of people were looking forward to that fight and telling non-MMA fans to tune it, that was the talk on Sherdog pre-fight. I told so many people to tune in because it was going to be all out action.
When the fights was over, I was in disbelief. I felt more ashamed than I usually do. That was the last time I tried to bring fans to the sport. I usually don’t even tell people I’m an MMA fan anymore.
