the "mma community"

[Sisti]

you hear this word a lot, but i am starting to think this (us forum users) hold more weight than I once thought

 

for example, i once made a funny post about phil baroni, and the next time i check it out, phil baroni actually responded to that post!

 

basically, mma is a relatively small sport, and the fighters do see what is going on in the forums. i know if i was a fighter, i would be curious what the fans are saying

 

seems like there's a new story every week and it is somewhat determined by mma forums...here's how i see it from the most recent on

 

silva vs. bonnar...wtf? or fun match

jones...good guy or bad guy

jones, machida, dana and the cancellation of 151...jones fault or not

hendo/edgar decision...good or bad decision

vera/shogun...why did they make this match!?

chris weidman smashes munoz...does he deserve a title shot?

chael/silva 2...who wins?

also, i think that controversy and a new topic has been good for mma

 

every once in a while there is a slow week with no real story and it seems like interest in mma fades

I remember there was a thread about what fighter entrances should be or something, I mentioned mc hammer's too legit to quit, next event Patrick Cote comes out to it o.0

 

Obviously I am Patrick Cote.

Frank Mir and his wife tweeted that he was coming out to different music at UFC 146 and magically he came out to "it's amazin" even after saying he wouldn't
