UFC Fighters who dislike fighting.

[notsojollyrogerRIP]

Money and contractual issues aside, name fighters you assume/admitted to their dislike of fighting. (Don't include fighters who hate to train, but love stepping into the Octagon).

Here's a few:

Nate Diaz
Nick Diaz
Late career GSP
Jose Aldo
Brock Lesnar
Quinton Jackson
Jake Shields
Cole Konrad (ret.)

 

[Ballsaque]

Sarah Mcmann it seems.

Nice AV btw, Apocalypse now is GOAT.

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

I don't think Ronda likes fighting anymore.

 

[Soul On Ice]

CM Punk

 

[Jormungandr]

You can add Phil Brooks to that list soon :3

edit : already late, good one on Honda too

 

[GangstaBoogie]

Demian Maia has said he wants to win fights without hurting his opponents if that counts.

 

[ortizgnp]

Uriah Hall gets PTSD from knocking people out.

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

CM Punk

But how does he know that?

 

[John Wick]

Nice AV btw, Apocalypse now is GOAT.

Movie has been sitting on my hard drive for years now. I haven't seen it...

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

Demian Maia has said he wants to win fights without hurting his opponents if that counts.

Oops.

 

[Soul On Ice]

But how does he know that?

Because he's avoided it at all costs so far.

He's mastered being a UFC fighter without actually having to fight.

I think Brock is the only high level fighter who hated (MMA) fighting. I know Nick Diaz has said he hates it; but I'm pretty sure he's also said he loves it on other occasions. I'm pretty sure he's said it's a love/hate relationship.

Get the fuck on it, son. If you blaze, i would recommend it for it.

Thanks, brotha. Give Heart of Darkness a read if you haven't already.

Yeah, love/hate, I get that impression from Nick and Nate.

 

[Ballsaque]

I have, absolutely brutal book, loved it.

How do you interpret the ending? Was Kurtz the insane one, or Willard?

Agreed. I get paranoid from ganja now so I quit, but yeah, burning and watching the Do Lung bridge scene was fun times.

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

That's happens to me now too. I'll still smoke if I'm drunk though.

 

[campbecc]

Yeah, love/hate, I get that impression from Nick and Nate.

I think most people who compete in combat sports feel that way; but the Diaz brothers tell their feelings: No filter.

 

[Ballsaque]

Oh yeah, those Long river scenes who are like half totally chill and half tense as fuck.. Just great stuff really.
