or does it drive you nuts when people not involved in martial arts with no following of any MMA or anything ever post bob sapp highlights and claim hes the hugest toughest best MMA practitioner/competitor ever? drives me mental, and makes me hope everyone sapp fights demolishes him.

it's debatable whether sapp fanatics drive me more ape**** than royce gracie fanatics

I've also encountered an individual who i can quote as saying "Always bet on Butterbean." Even after i informed him of Sudos size and him beating butterbean, he refused to believe it and said if it were really true it was a fluke lol....this sort of thing makes me grit my teeth.

the only fluke was the decision-making process in making the match even happen

As much as this is wrong and I agree, teeth grinding material, it shows that with the right amount of media push, people will gain some interest in MMA, even if unfounded, and will be more likely to go to shows, but PPV's etc to see if nothing else, Bob Sapp. Keep feeding him up tomato cans, if it gets buy rates and bums on seats, let it be. The sport needs support, and people will learn the more they see how great it is

All I have to say

I always find people trying to argue with me over this type of **** who obviously have'nt followed the sport much. Its to the point now where I just tell them "shut the **** up, i dont care what you think, i am done with this conversation". its like beating a dead horse talking to the uneducated mma community. they just have to follow it closer, otherwise they will see in time.
