The fighter you hate the most and why

I don't hate him I just never understood the hype: Tony Ferguson.

- never fought top competition while they were except a bad weight cut RDA and Gaethje
- spent most of his career at WW and it's possibly the biggest LW on the roster but he never gets the ducking WW conversation
- out of all the reasons we didn't get Khabib vs Ferguson not getting it because someone wanted to wear sunglasses inside and tripped over a cable wire tearing his ACL is by far the worst reason
- dislike the absorb punishment until my opponent gets tired and gasses approach to fighting
- fucking ducked Holloway, the interim LW title and a guaranteed shot at Khabib to fight the ghost of Anthony Pettis
- publicly turned down Chandler after the UFC offered him to Ferguson for the October 24th card just to turn around and try and publicly pressure him into fighting him on short notice in December

Like I said I don't hate the guy but he gets passes that other fighters get eviscerated about.

Big fan of Tony here, however I can understand why the dislike.
It’s almost as if Tony had found a cheat code for striking. Off-patern, walk forward, eat all non-significant strikes, block as many shots as possible with the face and just hit the guy in front of you.

I admit it irked me slightly in the early days, however seeing how effective he became was impossible not to like imo.

Khabib has a similar mentality stood up, albeit totally different flow.
Both are very awkward strikers whose style should not be taught to any extent. It would be the equivalent of mimicking Romero’s ground game, just doesn’t make sense unless you are Yoel.
 
Cruz just because he seems like an arrogant pos. Bisping was like that when he was fighting, but at least he can laugh at himself now.
 
Khabib Nurmagomedov.

Privileged prince with hard-controlling ego.

Where I stand, those are the biggest scumbags we know here.
 
Nah, I don't hate anyone based on party affiliation. I don't run in that hamster wheel, also known as the left/right paradigm. I just don't like seeing politics in sports - red or blue
Can't say I blame you, I don't either. But thank you for not being a mindless person given your location.
 
Covington because he’s clearly racists and Mas because I think he’s a idiot gatekeeper
You can't tell the difference between someone playing up a gimmick and someone being genuine?

They guy lived with Jon Jones for over a year and with Masdival for over 6 years. That's Christmas, Thanksgivings, independence day all spent with minorities.

Colby admitted that without coming up with his all American gimmick the UFC was going to cut him. Think about that a former WW interim champ and currently the #1 contender, who only loss to Wardley Alves before Usman, was going to get cut for being boring.

This is entertainment. It doesn't matter if they're cheering for you or against you as long as they're cheering, watching and buying. It's when they don't respond to you that it's a death sentence.

If the man want to play a racist gimmick just to make money I’m going to treat him like a racist
 
I don’t exactly hate a lot of fighters. It’s mostly certain fans of certain fighters that I find more annoying.
 
People like him are weird. They have fucked up values but can seemingly be personable, nice people. Don't even understand it.
What? people, who do their job to their best of their ability lmao?

I can dig that.

But if we're going that route than Colby is a xenophobe not a racist. He doesn't dog people because of their skin color. He dogs people for not being American.
 
Well.. i'll exclude war machine, joe son, the dog fighting guy etc.. as they are not fighters i hate.. they're the kind of people i hate that happens to be fighters.. how they perform in their business is of no interest to me..

Will probably have to go with hughes if i have to hate someone.. hughes catches almost no hate while still enjoying the respect of a legend.. someone like colby says dumb shit but hasn't actually done anything and people used to start threads hating on him daily..
