Why does the UFC hate MVP??

I doubt the problem is the UFC. It probably has more to do with fighters keep turning down fights against him.
Can't force people to fight but you can coerce and the UFC can't book itself for a dinner reservation the last few years they are failing to book most anything worthwhile
 
0 finishes, 0 fotn/potn bonuses

Hates probably too strong a word but they’re obviously not impressed by his performances
 
Who is this deciding body that determines what a stinker is? I enjoy MVP fights a lot & he was hugely popular in Bellator. He hasn't lit the UFC on fire but suddenly an MVP fight is a guaranteed stinker? bollocks
He’s had some highlight reel moments but plenty of his fights have been pretty uneventful as well. It’s not really even his fault, he’s just got a tough style that leaves guys hesitant to engage which is exactly what he needs to do his best work. Also I don’t think his reputation of being a knockout artist is entirely accurate so I think the point fighting style can leave fans a bit disappointed.
 
They pay the guy to fight

and he throws like 3 punches a round lol

no finishes.
 
Imagine if Anderson always fought like the Maia fight, every time. He'd have 2% of the fans.

Ironically his fights have gotten better too. Him vs holland trash, him vs garry mildly ok, him vs shara slightly interesting, him vs jared a banger.
