Poll: Do you like watching fights with no crowd?

[ChangeIsComing]

Honestly fuck the celebrity camera pans, the fighter camera pans, the drunkard camera pans...I do not give two fucks about seeing thme or their reactions.

Personally I love the no crowd fights.

 

[josh345]

I like it. But idk if the fighters do. A lot of weird performances lately

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

Yes, crowds suck

 

[theTKDguy]

i enjoy both

 

[felmmando]

The crowd does add some excitement but I didn't miss it nearly as much as I expected, so I'd definitely rather have fights without a crowd than no fights at all.

 

[Ballswing]

I love it

 

[BjPenn2017]

I personally like it, the first couple events were weird but now that I'm used to it I could care less.
I don't mind the crowd either, I just like hearing the coaches/corner more, they say some funny shit. Lol

 

[Number 8]

With no murrican crowd, yes.

 

[Everbest]

it's depressing.

 

[Ulti1]

Boomer here how does one watch a fight for free? All I see is pop-up click spam everywhere.

 

[Celeron]

How about 3rd option of not giving a f*ck about Conor. I would rather watch anyone else in the top 10 rather than another underserved title shot for the Irish midget

 

[GrantB13]

I think I'd PREFER a crowd but I don't really care now that it's actually happening. Turns out it's not that big of a deal from a TV watchers angle.

 

[Tito Tapped]

It's so much better without because 90% of UFC crowds are dog shit tier.

What we need now are live watch parties so people can geek out together.

Immediately after the fight, I wish there was a crowd. Jumping on the Octagon to scream to some empty chairs is weird.

I've never liked the idea that your team is allowed to sit and scream at you while you fight, let alone do I enjoy hearing this. It'd be like in soccer if you have coaches running up and down the field telling the player what to do as they do it. It's stupid and I don't think it even helps the fighters to have this.

But I like being able to hear the commentators better and to have quiet in between fights.

So ideally back to fans, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.

I thought the fighters might not be as aggressive without an audience, but Luque/Price crushed that concern, as did Ngannou and Tony/Gathje.

 

[contrail]

I mute fights 90% of the time because the commentary is so bad so it's inconsequential for me. Hearing the corners more clearly is a neat side effect, though.

 

[Kertol]

Preferably.

 

[Guffman]

I voted "yes" because of the way the poll was worded, but I miss the crowds-it gives bid time athletic events it's soul.
