    Disappoints me that I won't get to watch one of Nate's fights but on principle I won't watch this. No way I'm supporting anything that Mazvidal is involved in after his disgusting behaviour in his last fight.

    What did he do?

    Acted like a dick for 10 seconds to a guy, who'd acted like a way bigger dick for about 6 months. Criminal in some people's eyes.

    Mazvadal has boasted on a podcast before how he loved to sucker punch people in street fights, he is a scummy cnut.

    Ha! That's fantastic!
    Chuck Mindenhall wrote a good article about the BMF belt too (on The Athletic) and as usual he nailed it. https://theathletic.com/1193509/2019/09/08/what-does-the-bmf-title-really-mean-for-ufc-244-that-fun-exists-in-this-dojo/
    Behind paywall, but it's all about bringing the fun back to MMA and remembering how "Diaz might’ve been the master behind the controls all along".

    While the guy was lying on the ground unconscious, thats the problem people have, and you just conveniently left out

    Yeah out cold, could have been in seriously bad shape and that scrote dances around him.
    He is clearly a lowlife, probably lucky he isn't in jail.

    love watching the guy fight but have to agree with that.
    I would love to see Diaz win that bout though I think masvidal will myself.

    Man talks a big game, gets knocked out, other guy is happy he knocked him out.

    There is loads of respect between alot of opponents but askren prefers to talk endless ****, so to quote the great Jamie Vardy "chat **** get banged".

    I fail to see the problem.

    Talk all that good stuff and eventually it catches up with you. Do you think bisping would rather have had Henderson dance over him or drop that last right hand onto him while he was out stiff on the floor

    For dancing?

    Ben Askren had absolutely zero problem with how Masvidal acted. He laughed, and said "yeah I probably deserved that".

    If the man himself wasn't offended, nobody else should be. He brought this on himself, which he acknowledges.

    Totally disagree. If Koscheck had been ok with Daley's cheap shot would that make it ok? Of course it wouldn't

    You're comparing apples and oranges. One is actually illegal, and not just in a sporting sense. He could have been arrested for that. The other is wildly different.

    What about the Rangers fan taunting Scott Brown about his dead sister? If Brown doesn't complain then it's fine? I mean Brown brings it on himself with his winding up of Rangers players and fans doesn't he

    Haha, wow. If you're resorting to this then I think you know your argument is weak.

    Sorry but that's not even remotely similar to what Masvidal did.

    That's what I disagreed with, we can think someone's a lowlife based on their actions

    We can, I just don't see celebrating after knocking out a troll that was needling him for months as scummy.

    Hendo's Hendobomb on Bisping after he knew he was out cold, yes.
    Bisping spitting at his opponents corner after the win, yes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,795 ✭✭✭dulux99


    "If the man himself wasn't offended, nobody else should be."

    In this instance, this is the logic that should be followed. In this classic world of whataboutery everyone tries to compare one scenario to another. It's stupid. There's such thing as nuance and logic to differentiate different situations, which is quite lost on you it seems.

    'celebrating' isn't remotely similar to what Masvidal did, taunting a man who's clearly unconscious isn't the same as how every other fighter celebrates

    We'll have to agree to disagree so, neither of us will see the others point.

    Look you are the one here who is trying to tell everyone else what they can find scummy. The point of the different scenarios is to see if you get there is a line that can be crossed.. now it seems that you do.. now you need to get that not everyone draws the line where you do

    That's fair. You found it deplorable, I didn't. No harm done. :)
