View Full Version : UFC and White guys
The Noose 01-17-2006, 12:33 PM So i dont know ****all about UFC, but i watched some last night, and was just wondering why UFC seems to be dominated by white American guys.
Basically, i didnt see any black or latinos.
Also, I didnt see any fighters from outside the U.S.
Pardon my ignorance, just was curious.
Easy-E 01-17-2006, 12:34 PM well tim slyvia fought last night against a guy from i have no idea. also spencer something fought against a guy from brazil. the hw champion is russian.
Easy-E 01-17-2006, 12:34 PM also, great fighters like tito ortiz and babalu, dominant forces in the ucf are foreign
jabsRstiff 01-17-2006, 12:42 PM I'd think some of it is due to white guys having more of a wrestling background than other Americans.
Explosivo 01-17-2006, 01:02 PM also, great fighters like tito ortiz and babalu, dominant forces in the ucf are foreign
Isnt Tito Ortiz American?

That's how boxing also got started. Wait till it gets more popular and when paychecks are more rewarding.
Easy-E 01-17-2006, 01:30 PM Isnt Tito Ortiz American?
yes, but he is half mexican with a mother of hawaiian decent. my point was that he is not the typical white male
momita 01-17-2006, 01:30 PM there are many nationalities fighting in UFC. You didn't see Rivera last night? He's latino. And very good I might add at what he does, just wasn't his night. :)

SnoopySmurf 01-17-2006, 01:32 PM Lot of the good non-whites are in Pride Champhionships where there's more money paid than UFC fighters.

My boy has said some funny ****, didn't he ?

He's been owned worse than any other heavyweight in history has too.
jabsRstiff 01-17-2006, 02:19 PM He's been owned worse than any other heavyweight in history has too.
Not when there's a guy out there who has been brutally beaten by another guy, who was brutally beaten by Vitlai.
Know what I mean ?
jack_the_rippuh 01-17-2006, 02:22 PM Yeah, but the thing with Wlad is that he wasn't made to be an all time great so him getting brutally beaten by Corrie Sanders who was brutally beaten by Vitali can't be compared to how Larry Holmes got 0wned by Tyson and schooled by a Blown Up Light-Heavy..
jabsRstiff 01-17-2006, 02:25 PM Kevin McBride, is God.
EXIGE 01-17-2006, 02:41 PM Kevin McBride, is God.
Kevin McBride is a tool.
jabsRstiff 01-17-2006, 02:43 PM Kevin McBride is a tool.
yes, he is....but that tool hammered Tyson.
The Noose 01-17-2006, 02:48 PM yes, he is....but that tool hammered Tyson.
I could beat the crap out of Muhammed Ali!
jabsRstiff 01-17-2006, 02:50 PM I could beat the crap out of Muhammed Ali!
.....& a tool hammers Ali, as well.

Black or Latinos? RIVERA fought Leben in that card, Melvin Guillard fought there too and he is blacker than Wesley Snipes
Any fighters outside of the US? Goulet is from Canada and Assuerio Silva is from Brazil; they fought in that card as well.
hectari 01-17-2006, 03:23 PM I personally like Pride.
I like the UFC reality shows. The only fighters I like from UFC are chuck Liddell,GSP,Tito Ortiz, Bj penn and a couple others I cant name right now.
I bascially stopped watching when they took out the lightweight division,
jack_the_rippuh 01-17-2006, 03:26 PM Jabs, you just don't get it do you...
TYSON NO LONGER WANTED TO FIGHT FOR PERSONAL REASONS!
IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MCBRIDE FIGHT OR EVEN ANYTHING MCBRIDE WAS DOING. UNDERSTAND?
Larry Holmes got beaten by a blown up Light Heavyweight TWICE!
A guy who Tyson obliterated in seconds.
hectari 01-17-2006, 03:27 PM Black or Latinos? RIVERA fought Leben in that card, Melvin Guillard fought there too and he is blacker than Wesley Snipes
Any fighters outside of the US? Goulet is from Canada and Assuerio Silva is from Brazil; they fought in that card as well.
most of those guys ehtnic guys you named are subpar.
Melvin is tight though but not darker then snipes I just looked at the pics of them wesly is blue black.

another great fighter: http://www.ufc.tv/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=257
another: http://www.ufc.tv/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=257
and this guy had a gash the size of a diesel truck over his eyebrow during a UFC fight:http://www.ufc.tv/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=300
then this one: http://www.ufc.tv/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=362
this little guy was a great favorite: http://www.ufc.tv/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=281
this fighter kicked the living **** outta Lawler & dislocated his hip: http://www.ufc.tv/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=279
another good one: http://www.ufc.tv/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=319
And that's just a handful, see, theres a pretty good variety of color in the UFC, but showing every fighter all in 1 night would be impossible. Sheesh & then what would we have to look forward to in the upcoming events? :D

nfc90210 10-25-2006, 08:53 AM I know I'm bringing this back from the dead.
But if we look at MMA Weekly's current top tens (for Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight) we see that MMA isn't dominated by white Americans.
The light heavyweight rankings especially show this fact.
HEAVYWEIGHT DIVISION (over 205 pounds)
#1 Heavyweight Fighter in the World: Fedor Emelianenko (A white guy from the Ukraine.)
2. Mirko Cro Cop (A white guy from Croatia)
3. Josh Barnett (A white American)
4. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (A Hispanic guy from Brazil.)
5. Tim Sylvia (A white American)
6. Andrei Arlovski (A white guy from Belarus)
7. Aleksander Emelianenko (A white guy from the Ukraine)(Fedor's brother)
8. Fabricio Werdum (A Hispanic guy from Brazil)
9. Mark Hunt (A guy of Samoan descent from New Zeland.)
10.Sergei Kharitonov (A white guy, I think, from Russia, though he could be from the Ukraine.)
LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT DIVISION (205-pound limit)
#1 Light Heavyweight Fighter in the World: Chuck Liddell (A white American)
2. Mauricio "Shogun" Rua (A Hispanic guy from Brazil)
3. Wanderlei Silva (A Hispanic guy from Brazil)
4. Ricardo Arona (A Hispanic guy from Brazil)
5. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (A Hispanic guy from Brazil)(Interesting fact: his twin brother Antonio Rodrigo is ranked number four at heavyweight by MMA Weekly)
6. Renato "Babalu" Sobral (A Hispanic guy from Brazil)
7. Tito Ortiz (A Hispanic guy from America)
8. Quinton Jackson (A black guy from America)
9. Alistair Overeem (A black guy from Holland)
10. Kazuhiro Nakamura (An Asian guy from Japan)
