Idk what Mighty Mouse has to do to get me to me to care

Props to Rogan for always having the back of MM, got a lot of shit for the Ronda hype but total justified with MM.
 
he wont ever go back to 135 and face legit competition as long as they keep feeding him easy fights to break silvas title defense record at flyweight. Only fights id tune in for right now is a third fight with either mccal or benavidez
 
I enjoy the division, but it was kind of funny how the cameras seemed to be intentionally avoiding the relatively huge BJM tonight.
 
If you weren't entertained by that performance you never will be. MM is a beast

And when BJ Penn and co. were in their prime, the lightweights were considered the little guys. The HWs still got all the attention then even though the talent was elsewhere. I don't get the size fixation of fighting fans. I mean, I guess the type of person that enjoys watching controlled devastation, aka mma, is the same type that likes big trucks, guns, and Donald Trump.

Seriously if MM was fighting at Bantamweight against men that at least resemble full grown adults I think I could finally enjoy him. He is literally half the size of every other person in the cage after the fight, and the people escorting him to the cage.

The 125 mens division will never be respected. It was a cool experiment introducing it, but it's time to shelf it. It's close to a freakshow division.

Another reason why boxing fans are far more mature.

Roman Gonzalez is widely respected and just fought tonight in before GGG and is acknowledge by all boxing fans to be a P4P top fighter.

He's not literally half the size of every other person in the cage. We're not talking about 10'6 250lb men...

However, I do think that it is very weird that the so-called P4P best MMA fighter in the world is smaller than most UFC women's competitors...

I think 135lb is the absolute lowest limit for men. What if there's incredible talent at 98 lbs. and the men are 4'10 but faster than DJ? Seriously, if we're paying to watch fighters, the men should at least resemble men.

I don't know. Maybe Manny Pacquiao to start with.

Most of which fought at 125 when they were children, and moved up to real weights to face real competition and build their legacys.
 
If 8 title defense s with 5 finishes doesn't do it then it ain't gonna happen you just don't like him ...and that happens in mma

155lb men (or at least fight weight of 155lbs) means that men could have stature of at least an average male. You have people from 5'8 to 6'1, 155-170 lbs walk-around weight. That's like a regular man, but these fighters are in much better shape than the average man.
 
This is like saying "Anderson Silva sucked because he won all of the time."

You missed the point. At one time, LWs were considered "manlets."
 
'Mighty Mouse' ... 'Cookie Monster' ...

You mean like the time when 25 year old Manny Pacquiao fought 30 year old Juan Manuel Marquez? Two non children fighting real legit competition.
