It's easy to sit back in your chair and call Hunt a whiner, but none of these keyboard warriors slamming him have to get into the cage and get their face pounded by a 300lb guy (allegedly) on PEDs. None of these fans have their income dependent on winning and losing fights, and have to worry about losing face by losing to a cheater. And most importantly, none of them have to worry about the long term effects of getting beaten up by an (alleged) cheater.

I side 100% with Hunt on this, and think all these keyboard warriors slagging him, saying they lost respect for him, ect, need to know their place.
 
I'm standing with Hunt. Fuck anyone who is shit talking Hunt, they're probably know-nothings anyways.
 
I side with Hunt too!

... but so did this guy

Things being easy is the #1 reason I do them.
 
I'm fine with Hunto trying to get paid. I also understand his anger, as this is the third time in a row his opponent's results came back positive after the fight. I haven't really read much of what he's actually saying, because the little I did read was kind of cringe inducing, but he's a professional fighter. I don't get upset that he expresses himself in less than ideal ways. I'm fine with what he's doing, although ultimately, I don't really care if he's successful in these efforts or not.

Would have gotten pounded in with or without drugs. Also Lesnar would have gotten knocked out with or without drugs.
It's an irrelevant thing to bitch about.
 
I agree with how Hunt is treating the retards who think that their opinions matter, but he should shove the "give me X from Brock's purse" right up his ass. I preempt his defense by saying that I don't care that he doesn't care about my opinion, I not looking for affirmations from him.
 
1) He got huge payday + he knew before he was juicing
2) We are not fighters - it is his job, but you can't say we can't discuss and criticize fighters as a fans of the sport
3) He is really very rude with the fans. All those responses he get is adequate and his i acting like a child
 
About the purse thing, is there some rule stating that if the guy is caught juicing his paycheck goes to the opponent?
 
If Brock could beat a test I think he would have Hunts number with that game plan.

Big Hunto fan though and he has a right to be peeved

Hunt isn't obligated to be nice to the fans. It's like saying the fans are obligated to not criticize him.

That guy was basically telling Hunt he needs to shut up like others are telling him to do about it...Fuck that

Yeah but he started off with "I'm a huge fan of yours"

So he could have been kind of nice back or not replied :p

I used to think better of the person Mark Hunt. Treating a fan that approaches you with good intentions like this is totally uncool.

That is true, but I'm willing to bet a lot of them would be willing to take a beating for $700k. I know I would.

I side with Hunt.
But I don't think that lashing out on fans is the proper path.

Talk like this to Zuffa. Rally up fellow fighters.
Explain to fans why it impacts him (not only monetarily for this fight, but how it affects rankings and future fights as well).
THAT would bring him more rewards.
That would garner him supports from the fans and pressure Zuffa to change the policy as it stands now.

A fighter that does not make weight loses 20% of his purse to the other fighter.
WHy can't a fighter who cheated lose 50%?

I think it is only logical that this should happen.

But it is hard to support someone that is cursing at me...
 
This was so important TS has to make a new thread about it? LOOK AT ME!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Dear TS.

I would fight Brock for free if it was on the biggest stage.

Sincerely yours,
