The appeal of UFC

[1bad65]

It may be a misunderstanding. I did not quote you, did I? And they key word there is ONLY. Notice how my last words were "but there will always be a few". I admit there are idiot fans IN BOTH SPORTS, but you cannot honestly say the ONLY people who watch MMA are those wanting to see death or serious injury. That's crazy.

And like I said, that quote was in no way directed at you specifically.

Care to share your name? I used to watch the ISKA on ESPN(if that's where you fought) as a kid, and I wonder if I ever saw you fight. I remember 'Bad' Brad Hefton, Troy Dorsey, and Steve Doss mostly. I've actually met Mr Dorsey at an amateur MMA show, and Mr. Doss runs a MA school in Austin.

No, I never said "only." The majority is good enough.

In this case - any percentage above something small sounds like it would embarrass you, or any other serious observer..



This was aimed at "you" -for this reason.

......The unfortunate aspect here is that I've forced you to not only defend the idiots - I've forced you to tell me they don't exist.


And you aren't quoting my comments right now..

But you're still talking to me, yes?


Anyways, I think you showed me straight out you aren't a prick..

I appreciate your words here.

Fine.

It's all good. I meant my 'only'. I was saying that if anyone thinks the ONLY people who watch MMA want to see death and maiming, they are wrong. I can't defend the idiots, I just feel they are not a majority.

Glad you don't think I'm a prick. I'm for the most part laid back, but certain things get under my skin too easily.

I, like you it seems, am disgusted by the bloodthirsty types. But the most annoying fans are the 'armchair experts' who scream instructions every ****ing second and have never trained a day in their lives.
