Official UFC on FOX: Gustafsson vs Rumble Thread (Sat, Jan. 24)

[George's Dilemma]

We get it, some of you despise white folks but there are other places on this site to do that in. Stay on topic about MMA or take that shyt elsewhere.

I missed the fight last night, actually forgot about it. Your post was the first I read on this thread as I always read long threads backwards. As soon as I saw you mention white folks, I thought here we go. I hate all that race sh!t, even though at times I succumb to it? Not sure why muh fuggaz cant just appreciate these fighters' talents and have respect for the winner and loser without all that racial pride sh!t. Rumble isn't giving me any of his earnings, and there's no reason for me to sh!t on Gus. Besides, Gus would whoop my azz.


I will say this though, I don't pretend there are any illusions about why so many whites loved MMA before when there were hardly any Blacks. They loved to sh!t on boxing for the reason I believe was that it has been a sport largely dominated by minorities and as of late Russians and Eastern Europeans (not that much better than n!ggers, but still not a n!gger). The thought that boxers couldn't compete within MMA seems to be something that satisfies certain MMA fans' racial hangups. Now that there are more than one or two dominant minorities in MMA, I thinks some Black fans celebrate their wins as a little bit of verbal payback. Not saying I agree with it as it perpepuates racial and ethnic division, but it is what it is, as I see it anyway. Sh!t, I can't watch a basketball game with my father before he reiterates for the thousandth time (old folks repeat themselves) how white coaches figured out that if they want to win, they better recruit some Blacks.

And to the guy who wanted to see the full fight video of Rum

Thanks for the lank breh! I missed this last nite. Fascinating how raucous that hometown crowd was and then it went on life support after the fight was over. Amazing how that goes.

 

[Mowgli]

They were laughing because they realized they were on the big screen.

 

[Roman Brady]

when you read the quote of what he said when AJ first called him out, one cant help but at that gif. Was feeling himself and took that ticket of white privilege a lil too far

 

[Roman Brady]

straight up mauling, like he became possessed by his ancestors seeing a european settler ."Where the fuk u going boi, dont you EVER......EVER....... EVER"

the way his head lifts off with the last 2 shots reminds me of the upper cuts on lil nog that defied gravity

 

[curz]

I cant even imagine what it must feel like to let your entire country down, but that gif is and

 

[blackestofpanthers]

I've seen more posts in here about people crying not to bring up race than people who actually did.

I also like how those people conveniently skipped the racist tweets.

I need to go get another 12 pack to celebrate moose and rumble winning though.

Lot of dumb asses popped up overnight I see

When talking shyt you build animosity, it wasn't just one comment from gus, shyt been brewing for a while, so gus was fair game

cormier was fair game, cormier talk trash to everybody he's fought except for dan Henderson

Right. Truth be told during the buildup to 182 DC came off to me as more of the fake one. He seems like he's a really nice guy and he looked so awkward racking his brain trying to think of mean things to say to Jon when they were on ESPN. but he brought a genuine animosity out of Jon.

Same with Gus. Personality wise he was the typical mma joe everyman in the beginning, then after the Jones fight he changed.

Since you guys are discussing race let me ask a question.

Right now the top 5 are Jon, DC, Rumble and Rashad with Gus in at #2.
In the (unlikely) scenereo Gus eventually moves out of the top 5, Phil Davis would move up making the entire top 5 of the LHW division black.

Do you think this would affect sales? Do you think white fans would resent it?
Do you think they would even care?

 

[NaiSim]

Great card, perfect night for me. Phil Davis the fakkit lost. 2/3 of my Mountains savages won. Akira got ktfo. Rumble ended the great white hype.

I fukkin love Rumble and he's earned to be champ, I'm just afraid that all this Jones haters are going to latch onto him now that at the end I might be put off by Rumble.

My picks
Gus(going for Rumble)
Hendo
Davis
Akira

Watch me go 0-4

lmfao

Darkskin nikkaz

Gus going: darkness black midnight evil motherfukker

However, Cain would finish Jones.

Do you think this would affect sales? Do you think white fans would resent it?
Do you think they would even care?

Of course. The biggest PPV draws in UFC history are all white. Liddell, GSP and Brock. Bones draws 350-500k which is pitiful for an athete of his caliber.

Not saying I agree with it as it perpepuates racial and ethnic division, but it is what it is, as I see it anyway. .

It's just a reaction to the racism black fans encounter on sherdog, reddit, twitter etc. White fans keep hating on black fighters. And the constant need for a white champion is anooooying.

 

[WhodatWhoadi]

How you lose to Ryan Bader :wtfisdis:

 

[The Infamous]

Jones would be left unconcious.

Most wouldn't care.
