Seems like there is quite a bit of fans on this site. who are some of your favorite fighters? who do you root against? how long you been watchin? who all has been to some live events?

favorite fighters and guys i tend to root for are GSP, Urijah, Hendo, Marquardt, and gray maynard would prob be my top 5 dos santos, leben, forrest, wanderlei, saunders are some others that i find myself rooting for. i cant stand bj or tim sylvia. and tend to root against bisping, rashad, nate diaz and kongo.

i started watchin them in the very beginning and stopped prob @ 8 or 10. got caught up in the TUF mix and have been hooked since. watch every fight that i can, being UFC, affliction, dream, strikeforce, ect

went to ufc 88 in atlanta when chuck got KO by rashad. awesome experience. got tix for ufc 100 next month as well.

Favorite fighters are Frank Shamrock, Lyota (sp?) Machida, and Cung Le. Cung Le is my favorite because his fights are so unique. I have never seen anyone use karate so effectively. He is better than even Machida when it comes to karate IMO.

Fighters I can't stand are Phil Baroni, the Diaz brothers, Rampage, etc. Basically overly cocky fighters. As much as I hate them they will get my money because I want to see them get dropped so badly.

Think I am going as a "Sucky MMA fighter" for Halloween this year...Mainly b/c last Halloween 2 people were "Rampage Jackson" and a few others were dressed up like MMA.

Thinking about a black eye, fake blood, gloves around my neck, one of them busted with the stuffing coming out, rainbow shorts, TAPOUT/AFFLICTION tattoos or writing over me. Any other ideas?

I'd really like to see John Jones fight again soon

he fought on a fairly sucky pay per view not too long ago and his fight was really the only one i enjoyed that night. Other than that, im a big fan of Machida, Anderson Silva, Hughes, GSP.

I HATE Lesnar

I'm an MMA nut. Fedor is the best MMA practitioner in history IMO (discuss if u like //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif).

I like rampage, evans, machida, baby j, miguel torres, jose aldo, palhares, brock, shane carwin, brett rogers, some others.

I don't like Hughes (though I respect his skill and significance in the sport), baroni, riggs, AA (weak chin and too much hype), Cain Velasquez, a few others.

faves include BJ Penn, Diego Sanchez, Spencer Fisher, Dan Hardy, Josh Neer, and Clay Guida

Funny nobody's said shyt about Brock. Don't really like the guy, but he's kind of a beast.

hes been on a couple of the DO NOT LIKE lists

i dont personally care for him much. now if he becomes a more well rounded fighter that may change things.
