    I want to watch the best fighters fight each other. I don't try to live vicariously through MMA fighters and cheer for them no matter what, which is why I think so many MMA fans are such sad people. They cheer for Wanderlei based on the past. People retire in sports when they can't produce. It's not that big of a deal, yet in MMA, these mediocre fighters like Cro Cop and Wanderlei get paid big money based on their Pride days. They don't deliver now and haven't delivered in many years. They are mediocre fighters on a good day. And it's hilarious to me that their fans treat them like they're top fighters because it says a lot about them as individuals whether they realize it or not.

    You're trying to sound reasonable and intelligent and it is failing. Fans develop love and respect for certain fighters, and want to see them succeed. No one thinks Wanderlei will be fighting for a title anytime soon, but those who have watched his fights and grown to admire him would like to see him do well as he possibly can until retirement.

    He gets paid what he gets paid because he is a fan favorite and puts asses in seats. He is a name that sells. Same with the film industry, actors whose names sell better cost more.

    It wasn't a joke dude, I was being serious!

    SO did Wanderlei not deliver last night then? You do realise he was the underdog and won the fight last right? I assume you also think Big Nog is mediocre then?
    You're clearly one of these wannabe elitists who tries to make out that they only want to watch the "best fighters" fight each other, but do you define "best fighters"? Does this mean that you only want to watch GSP fight somebody like Jon Fitch every few months? Or watch Anderson Silva fight Jon Jones repeatedly? There can't just be elite fighters, there has to be a middle level and a lower level - but just because they are at a lower to middle level doesn't make them mediocre fighters, they are still in the top 0.000001% of the best on the planet!

    Sigh...I know that. This isn't the film industry or pro wrestling. I'm not going to root for a guy that still swings like a retard because he could possibly KO someone. Anyone that is a fan of that is an idiot. Plain and simple. But somehow I'm the stupid one. I wish MMA fans weren't so stupid. Maybe one day that will happen.

    Oh you were being serious! Yes I have autism! I've had it my whole life!

    Big Nog is a mediocre fighter and has had a mediocre UFC career. Anyone that argues against that is a complete and utter moron. If you want to watch Pride, go watch Pride events for the rest of your life, but stop praising fighters that are currently mediocre for what they did years ago. It's absolutely retarded. That's why MMA fans are such sad people...for the millionth time...

    Ideally for real MMA fans if everyone was well educated on the sport it might be better. For me and for most betting on the sport though we prefer these stupid MMA fans because they move lines to places where we can easily beat them. Best thing you can do is just relax and let stupidity go while making your money.

    Tht doesnt make sense with this dude though...surely the "stupid MMA fans" were the ones who were betting on Cug Le last night? Surely if EarlyLearningTree thinks Wanderlei is such a can then he'd of had thousands on Cung Le last night?! And Im get the feeling that that may well of been the case and is why he's so butthurt and so anti-Pride right now!

    This is TRUTH. I find it hilarious when anybody criticizes any of these guys. The most "faded" fighter in the UFC would probably destroy 99.9999% of the people on the planet in a fight. Not to mention -- beat 99% of other people in every other organizations. The UFC is the best of the best. And a great "b-grade war" is still EPIC entertainment! And if you don't agree -- you're NOT a fan of MMA IMO.

    You are a very dumb person and are seemingly oblivious to it. I'm just telling you now for future reference. And you aren't funny in the slightest, which makes it even worse.

    Calling who's possibly the sharpest MMA handicapper on these boards a "very dumb person" -- certainly doesn't make you sound very bright. You've got 1 foot in the grave.

    this is criminal to me, who the fuk is cung le? seriously... The shit being said about this guy's abilities going into the matchup were completely based on assumptions and it showed. Maybe the ppv numbers will prove me wrong but I still wouldn't get how his payroll is justified.
