towhatend Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 ...he seems to be putting a lot less effort into speaking English. Anyone else notice this? His English was sounding a lot better at the 104 press conference and even in the countdown for 113. Now it seems that Soares is doing a lot more of the talking than he was in previous events.

Piercer138 Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 unless he's trying to become a U.S. citizen? I couldn't CARE-LESS if he speaks ANY english. !! machida all the way !! just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trodrigues Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 maybe because he realized that most of the MMA fans are retards so he doesn't need to make an effort to please them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't CARE-LESS if he speaks ANY english. !! machida all the way !! just my opinion. Oh I wasn't trying to come off like "WTF Machida, speaking English," or anything like that. If a guy can fight he can fight. Just noticing a funny pattern. Like he was trying to market himself better as a champion or something. Ah well, he's still wearing fine suits and all so I guess that hasn't gone astray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legrosfleau Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 The mma fans didnt respect him. I don't see why he would waste time for them. It's a bit sad, cause the guy is actually a pretty nice guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khazaljj Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 I wish I knew Portuguese because Soares just translates the same thing over and over, I'm having doubts that he's actually translating but instead just giving generic answers. Even though Machida sounds a bit retarded speaking English, I'd rather he try because I don't believe that Soares is translating word for word :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, who gives a s***? Do you tune in to watch MMA or listen to blow hard trash talkers make fools of themselves? Typical dumb amerikkkan.
