I am glad that fighter's nationalities are extremely low on my priority list.

They aren't representing the country, whether you want them to be or not. It's an individual sport and guys from all other countries help them win.

They are playing real sports for real money. MMA is where the rejects who couldn't make it in other sports go.

I dreamed of a day MMA would have champions from all over and martial artists across the world would compete. This is a good thing.

TS sounds like a jealous, obsessive third-world ex-girlfriend.

At the moment, at 135 and 170.

Edit: I forgot Esparza and Pena. So 4 out of 12 belts.

Bro, were over here trying to figure out if were actually boys or girls. No time for training.

135 champion didn't even fly an American flag.
170 was born and Nigerian and goes way out of his way to let everyone know every time he's in front of the cameras

 

[smiles mma]

Tj, max, Jared, Jones/stipe is our next chances at having a champion that claims the states.
Maybe triple c will come back and help add some belts to USA

 

[Greg House]

Carla, pena

LMAO WMMA? Really?

Is this the "if I take my wedding band off I'm not married so it doesn't count" model of citizenship?

In the US you are a citizen until you forfeit your citizenship. It doesn't matter what flag you wave.

 

[Limeade]

Aljo, Usman, Juliana.

And many champions train with American teams. ATT, Cejudo's camp, etc.

Although I will agree that the common American style of wrestler-boxer is less dominate now than it used to be over the past two decades. But I guess overall that is a good thing for the sport.

There has only ever been one American fighter in UFC though which was Andre the chief Roberts, there hasn't been anyother fighters in UFC that are American. We are just a melting pot from all over the globe.

Its a shame Roberts left because he was the best SHW ever in MMA and the only American fighter to ever compete in UFC, he was a bad ass. Bloodline from 1120, but apart from The Chief, there has not been any American fighters in UFC I'm afraid

Its so cute seeing all these people bad mouth so called American fighters, that none are champs, because the ones you are bad mouthing are all from your countries!. As I said there has only ever been one American fighter in UFC

 

[Luthien]

Sterling??

Carla??
Julianna

 

[Hdfi]

The US has more champions now than any other country.

Sterling
Esparza
Pena

 

[Coolkid666]

[H41ph_84k3d]

When I first started watching UFC the champs were Sylvia, Liddell, Franklin, Hughes and Sherk.
