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?
It would effect sales. UFC fans are largely racist and dont want to watch a bunch of black people beat the crap out of each other, unless they're talking shyt and can be put in a position to be humbled.

I've seen more posts in here about people crying not to bring up race than people who actually did. :sas1:

I also like how those people conveniently skipped the racist tweets.:sas2:

I need to go get another 12 pack to celebrate moose and rumble winning though.
Ain't nobody crying and if Gus had won and posters were saying shyt about Rumbles race you muthafukkers would want them banned from the site. Just cause you see racial comments on Twitter and other sites, doesn't mean you have to vent about it here.

What posts were venting ,bud? Why such hostility? It seems like you have some internal issues you need to work on there buddy, because I'm not seeing what you're seeing.

Yeah, it might do cuz you gotta remember that at the time when they use to be writing books about how whites where supposedly psychically superior to black folk boxing was the most popular sport in the states, until they let us in the door then our superior blackness knocked em the fukk out the door and and they all ran away to MMA but now they let us though the MMA door too they aint finna be around long just like in boxing, they will still keep watching though looking for a new great white hope like lil Gus the Viking warrior.

To all the nikkas saying it aint about race y'all nikkas are living in a fantasy world, everything is about race, go ask them nikkas living in Brazil and the whole of South America and the Spanish Caribbean if race don't matter, go ask all them super dark ass Indians living in India under the caste system if color don't matter, go ask all them black folk living in them racist ass Arab countries if race dont matter, go take your bytch ass to a kkk rally and ask them if race don't matter. It's cool that y'all think everyone should be treated fairly because it aint Jim Crow no more but that aint how it is, you need to wake up or shut up.

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..

Rampage averaged more PPV buys than Chuck. Jones PPV numbers are on the low side, but you have to take into account PPV numbers are down considerably from before.

:patrice:

I am sure Anderson is way higher on that list as of now. I'd be surprised if he isn't above everyone except maybe GSP. But Brazil has more buys than canada I think so even still I would guess he's #1
