Is Stipe Miocic the least marketable HW Champ in UFC history?

[RealVision116]

I think so. I mean, I even had trouble remembering how to spell his last name correctly.

Edit: HW Champ in UFC history*

Have you seen Ben Rothwell?

 

[HHJ]

If he keeps knocking people out,who cares if they cant sell stipe heebok shirts? Not me.

 

[scorpipede]

In America a firefighter from Cleveland that also happens to be the UFC HW champion is unmarketable?

you wanna think that through again?

 

[The guest]

Ridiculous. He's a guy every mma fan should at least respect. Only a really salty fan of some other HW would not at least respect the guy.

He's marketable. It's just that Zuffa only markets the shit talkers.

 

[Fallout King]

He'll be as marketable as weidman

I love big Timmeh but lets face it the big lug was not easy to prommote or look at or cheer for.

Dull as a brick Cain was

if they'd get behind him and simply use his story he'd sell well enough I think. A man's man type of approach rather than, as you say, the typical shit talking high roller hollywood schmoozing type.

Wait hold on guys, meant to say HW CHAMPION in UFC history. Otherwise no that's crazy lol

I'm sure you have trouble spelling most names.

 

[RealVision116]

Why do you Internet people have to be like this lol let's spread good energy. Good vibes.

No way, Stipe is a good HW, he is not boring and could be popular with some title defenses

 

[melvinj0]

Well he is calm, white, and straight so the media definitely won't be on his side.

 

[HHJ]

I dont care about how marketable he is,he aint putting any money in my pocket. He is still the most interesting fighter on the roster,in that he has a style completley different from the other guys in the division

he has this rep as being boring but the UFC has to push the right aspects of his personality. I really think they can put some asses in some seats with this guy anywhere in working class 'Murrica. They may need to shell out some dough though.

Cain had the personality of a sloth, was never reliable and couldn't speak Spanish at a 1st grade level compared to a Brazilian (Werdum).

Stipe "5-packs a day" Miocic can't possibly be as hard a sell as that.

 

[touchedbyjab]

Stipe smokes marlboro reds, fights fires, and is white. He will resonate with many fans.

 

[TjDillashawCombo]

He need to start trash talking or something, like Khabib did

Agreed. Before I even knew who was "good" I used to just dislike Sylvia because of the way he looked. Not proud of it though.
