Which was worse? Brock's promo vs. DC or Bonnar's promo vs. Tito

[Pequeño Corey]

Bonnar brought out Tito's old training partner with a bag on his head. Extra points for corny, but added a personal touch that legit got under Tito's skin. However, they both suck on the mic so it seemed like an even exchange.

Brock slammed the mic into the camera, along with Rogan's hand, and proceeded to call Stipe a POS as he (Stipe) was pushing officials and trying to remember what year it was. DC was obviously having fun with it, but his ham-handed attempt to push Brock and his subsequent threat of "You rush (push?) me now, you sleep later" fell short of the mark next to Brock's polished mic skills. It was a mess.

Bonnar was pure cringe.
Brock was fine for casuals but embarassing for everybody else

Everything about Tito vs Bonnar is worse than DC vs Brock

Brock portrays himself as a caveman recluse, but the way he said "mudddaafukkkaa" instead of "motherfucker" gives me the impression that he actually surfs the internet regularly.

Bork's promo was great imo

 

[Pequeño Corey]

This should be in every thread

Bonnar vs Tito was so absurd.

The Shockmaster promo was unintentional comedic genius. All these years later, people STILL talk about it!

Bonnar got EVERYTHING wrong - he has no charisma whatsoever and was trying to sell a professional wrestling style promo to a MMA audience.

When he unmasked Tito's ex training partner, Tito was the only person in the entire arena who had any idea who he was.

Everybody else was looking at everyone else, thinking "Who Da Fook Is Dat Guy?!"

Somewhere, Paul Buentello was chuckling to himself.....

Given how good DC is the Brock circus show was pathetic.

 

[MMAProfessional]

I'm just glad Brock happened to be there and willing to accept the call out. That could have been horrible had he not been there.

*Holds the mic out to the crowd*

*Palpable silence*

Poor Paul. I'm sure it's been done a bunch of times, but we need another thread highlighting cringe moments and failed promos.

Bonnar vs Tito promo might be one of the funniest things ever in MMA.

Especially when Bonnar brought out some guy in a mask and everybody went

I loved Brock's promo. It was short and sweet- and mean as fuck.

Brock's performance wasn't cringe, per se. But the setting was all wrong. DC just accomplished greatness in a legitimate athletic contest, and all of a sudden it turns into WWE.

I understand that MMA rubs elbows with sports entertainment and likes to take a page out of their book from time to time, but the matchup doesn't even make sense. It was weird.

This isn’t even a debate.

Never said it was pure cringe and the setting was fine in my opinion (DC loved it btw) just the way Brock delivered was not ok by calling Stipe f*ckn shit etc.

About the matchup i dunno makes sense moneywise of course and DC deserves a big pay day also i like to see Brock getting ragdolled those are the only reasons i like the matchup. Everybody else of course is getting screwed but nothing new thats the UFC.....still gonna buy.

 

[El Che]

This is pure gold. I've watched it over 100 times and still laugh hysterically at it all. Sid Vicious' reactions are priceless.

 

[tucan89]

Nothing will ever top Bonnar Tito

 

[car epic win]

This is how brock draws money that other fighters dont understand. Hes playing a heel and says stuff like this to reel in people like you who get offended then buy the ppv because they want to see him get hurt.

I liked both, hard to choose
