Yair's management messed up, bad.

Wrong.

I commend the young man for putting a shot fighter out of his misery, and sparing me from having to hear BJ huggers gush on with false hope ever again. I enjoyed every blow of that shit-kicking he delivered.
 
This fight was meant to bring more eyes to Yair. That's why it was schedulled after the playoffs, and BJ is a recognized name that could bring a lot of audience to see Yair. An Yair dhow his arsenal.
It was like Mcgregor-Siver in 2015
 
Lol, you stupid, no one hates Yair, if anything, ppl hate BJ cuz he came in looking like shitty, no train BJ.

Only, he seriously trained, so wtf BJ?
 
Who hates him?

He got a big spotlight fight and destroyed a big name legend.

NFL game got moved to night and did 40 mill viewers so the UFC card average is def gonna be down but the main event should do a big number.

So a few million people, some casual fans likely saw Yair destroy a name they know and looked great doing it.

Thats not a bad thing for him at all. it raises his stock.
 
Read...Don't read. I don't give a fuck. But, I'm heading the douchebags off at the pass, this time.

If I was in control of Yair's career. I NEVER would have allowed him to take that fight. It was a lose/lose situation. Losing the fight of course, would have been bad. Winning it the way he did, may have been even worse.

Look in the PBP thread, and related subsequent threads.

A young fighter that most ppl seemed to be quite neutral about, before the fight. Is now a hated fighter. His transgression ??? He beat the piss out of the beloved BJ Penn.

The polls, and threads leading up to the fight, pretty much said it all. Penn huggers are over the fucking top, and always have been. Alot of them believed he would actually win that fight. That's not fucking reasonable.

Kind of reminds me of GSP vs Penn, and the re-match.

Leading up to the re-match, there was more focus put on that fight than any other in UFC history, to that point. Remember the Primetime series was created specifically for that fight. " To the death, Georges "... Do you remember all that ? Yet, the text poll during the broadcast showed IIRC. That about 2/3, or 66% of the people that voted, thought Penn was going to beat GSP. Which meant he would have held the LW, and WW titles at the same time.

So, GSP beat the living fuck out of Penn. In doing so, he became what is/was likely the most hated fighter in UFC history...Until Ronda, and Conor slithered out from wherever they came from ( He is/was of course, one of the most loved fighters in UFC history, too ).

The first fight was 2006. The re-match in 2009.

8...Yeah, that's right...EIGHT YEARS later. It is almost impossible to go a single day on these boards without Penn's huggers hating on GSP. And not just hating... But lying their fucking asses off, to do it. They try to downplay his accomplishments. He was the face of the UFC for more years than Ronda, and Conor combined. He beat EVERY fighter he faced. And dominated almost every single one of them. But, he's not the GOAT, and deserves to be hated because...

He didn't finish fights.
He ducked Silva.
He juiced.
He greased.
He fought safe ( The dumb fucks actually mean smart ).
He was boring.
He's Canadian.
He retired while still the champ.
He lost to Hendricks...

Etc, etc, etc.

Penn huggers have lied so many times, that they probably believe their own shit. The casual noobs of the last few years, have read, and heard this bullshit so many times. That they believe the lies, and calumny are ACTUAL FACT.

I've read numerous posts already, about Yair. Many of them heading down that same fucking road. It's not really that GSP, and Yair beat the beloved Penn. But, they embarrassed the living fuck out of him. And since alot of Penn's huggers predicted easy wins for Penn in the re-match, and the fight with Yair...

THEY were made to look stupid. And that is probably the biggest reason for the obsessive hate.

I NEVER would have suggested, or allowed Yair to take that fight, if I had a say in it. Because no matter what he does for the rest of his career. He's a marked, and hated man. He was ranked 10th before the fight. Penn huggers already want him to fight the top 2, or 3 guys... So they can beat the fuck out of him. Yeah...That sounds reasonable.

The hate ( I hope ) for Yair, will likely be tempered by the fact that Penn is well past his prime. He didn't belong in that octagon with Yair. And some of Penn's huggers get that. And I respect them for that. Whereas GSP beat the living fuck out of THE PRODIGY...IN HIS PRIME. But, no matter what...Alot of Penn's delusional fans will hate Yair for the rest of his career.

It's a damn shame. Because it wasn't personal...It's Yair's job. And he did it very well. He doesn't deserve to be hated. At least, not for that. And he will NEVER be nearly as popular, or well liked as he likely could have been, if he hadn't fought Penn.

I've never watched Yair Rodriguez fight before. Him fighting BJ Penn made me tune in and now I'm impressed by the guy and will watch his next fight.

Yea, real lose / lose situation there buddy.

I am glad you took it out of your system, buddy.
Hope you feel better...
 
I think beating Penn the way he did is good for Yair's career. Penn's name still carries appeal. Longtime casuals who don't follow UFC closely will just think "That Yair guy is a monster. He throws crazy kicks." If he had beaten a tougher opponent with a smaller name hardly anybody but hardcores would take notice.
 
That was a great move by his management, fighting BJ got his name out there got him in the main event and load of publicity. I really doubt that his management or Yair give a single rats ass about BJ hugger fan base hating on him. He'll be the main or co main in the next UFC mexico trust me.

Please show me some tweets with BJ fans hating on Yair.
 
The fight was sad, Penns corner should have stopped it after the 1st, everybody watching could see what was going to happen, Old man Penn was being served up on a highlight reel platter

Anyone who read all that deserves some kinda cash prize.
 
He should've called someone out last night. Sonnen said always call someone out to move up the ladder.
