What other black MMA fighter besides maybe Anderson, who is obviously Brazilian, is not a fan favorite?


I look at Anderson as a fan favorite even with the shite he has pulled. The dude is not only black but also foreign.
Also Rampage which I'm pretty sure is black. Also Rashad making him out to be an Uncle Tom.

Evans saying MMA fans don't like blacks in their sport because he is hated is like saying Americans don't like Brits because Bisping is hated. It's an easy out for him.

He's the only one that I could see taking out Jones, but he's a couple of fights away from that fight.

Lots of Rua fans were complaining about Camp Jackson's Jones dirty tactics during the fight. I watched it again and it does seem Jones was elbowing and thumbing Rua in the throat but I didn't see the illegal 12-6 elbows they were talking about. I seriously doubt it would change the outcome of the fight. I'd like to hear KBreezy's thoughts on this.


sore arse losers...they are just pissed their guy was physically dominated

Jones is opening as a 5-to-1 favorite against Rashad..

Anderson got super booed at the weighins against Belfort.. I can't imagine the heel heat he'd get against GSP or Jon Jones.

People boo Anderson when he plays around, but as soon as he Zohan kicks someone's chin through the top of their heads, everyone loves him

I'll root for Anderson Silva against anybody.

Love that guy
