Should american fighters learn to speak Brazilian?

[TinkerMan]

A lot of Brazilian fighters can speak English and with the odd exception ( Anderson Silva etc) makes them more marketable and understandable in the English speaking market, so I think it would be a good idea for other fighters to learn to speak Brazilian

its portuguese. And Brazilians dont have the $$$ to make it worth learning the language. Learning spanish or french would be much more beneficial

Brazilians speak Portuguese

 

[RawHawg]

Only if the Brazilians are required to learn Russian

They don't buy PPVs and get them free on TV, so no.

Spanish maybe. But in no way would learning French be more beneficial to an MMA fighter.

Dumbass

 

[Sirwastealot]

Yes they absolutely should.

But when is UFC making the move to brazil?

Didn't think anyone on Sherdog wouldn't know they speak "Portuguese", any other language you get a pass except that one

French canadian, French, Swiss, Africa. French is spoken in a big portion of the world and places that have more $$$ then spanish speakers. It would be beneficial

[Wariowokecancel]

They should learn to speak Mexican, noob!

 

[campbecc]

No because they don't care about the sport. MMA is only popular in a few small areas.

 

[Alphafail]

No but brazilians would definitely benefit from learning american.
