MMA fans don’t watch fights

Most MMA fans don’t watch fights. 90% are closeted kickboxing fans. They just watch knockout highlights on tiktok.

@TheMMALawyer @neeratanden I’m sure she knows what she’s doing. She’s paid precisely for it.

@princemir27 @StephanieGailW2 I think you may be the kid here, if you are still unaware that there are methods of communicating outside of voice calls

@princemir27 @StephanieGailW2 They’re talking right now lmao

@ColdedRango @Verbaljitsu Why are you watching mixed martial arts then? If you just want to watch striking, there are multiple different types of striking sports for you to choose from.

@lookatmyopinion I hate the “entertainment” excuse because you can always just watch a movie or something if that’s all that you’re looking for. Why ruin the meritocracy of a competitive sport?

@CichyMMA @MchaelSNM1 Compared to who lol

@acdmma_ You’re saying that as if they aren’t doing it on purpose

@ThePeoplesMMA Almost all of these are in the heavier, less athletic divisions. Volk is the one anomaly.

@BeigeFrequency Just goes to show the power of parasocial relationships. Incredible

@AOUREDOO UFC will never give Canada a good card lol

@XotheIceman @TrentReinsmith There was a lawsuit about this. We know exactly how they negotiate their deals. Unless you don’t know how to read lmao

@erikmagraken What do you think about the hybrid ring/cage used by M1

[MMA fans don’t watch fights @MMAfansDONT]

@JosephGasparyan @RedCorner_MMA If you’re so concerned with entertainment that you can’t appreciate the meritocracy of sports, maybe consider watching a movie or something instead

[MMA fans don’t watch fights @MMAfansDONT]

@DopeDomes_NFT @RedCorner_MMA Oh look, exactly the type of dork he’s talking about. Enjoy your oonga boonga regional circuit level slop 😆

@FisticuffsFella Transitioning from Stipe to Paul Felder

@lookatmyopinion I wouldn’t call it pettiness. That might have been the case a while back. The org is now just run by private equity guys who wouldn’t care if the sport disappeared tomorrow. They just want to reduce costs by trading their talent for lower level “action” fighters on 10k contracts.

@C_Kavanagh @OIThirty10 @VeniVidiGrizzly Hey Chris, didn’t you do a collab with someone notorious for using his platform to doxx/stalk/harass people (and much more!)? Standards, you say? You even knew about some serious allegations before releasing it. Does it no longer count when you guys share “center-left” politics?

[MMA fans don’t watch fights @MMAfansDONT]

@BeigeFrequency And once you’re ranked, they no longer schedule fights for you more than once a year. Complete hollowing out. Classic private equity

@DickMotorman69 @Grabaka_Hitman Wait until you learn about what concussions do
