So, uhm, who's your favourite fighters? I have a favourite guy in each division, so if you can do that aswell then that'd be awesome.
Overall: Matt Hamill
Heavyweight: Shane Carwin
Light Heavyweight: Matt Hamill/Rich Franklin
Middleweight: Rich Franklin/Demian Maia
Welterweight: Dustin Hazelett
Lightweight: Kenny Florian
And, uhm, who are your least favourites? The guys you wanna see get KTFO every fight, etc.
I absolutely despise Denis Kang. I'm not a Bisping fan, but I hope The Count delivers a Murder KO.
I'm also a massive hater of Brandon Vera. It's just something about him that I cannot stand... I love seeing him take a hard, decent punch and hate seeing him win.

I myself like every fighter really. There's no fighter I hate or "despise", like this guy feels for Kang for whatever reason.

i pretty much like all heavyweights, if i had to pick a favorite, it would be Mirko Cro Cop. i cant say i dislike any, maybe roy nelson, if that counts.
matt hamill is my all time favorite light heavyweight, second up is ryan bader. i dont like tito ortiz or rashad evans. chuck liddell was my first favorite fighter before i really got into the UFC, so hes deff up there.
middleweights is dan henderson, anderson silva, and surprisingly micheal bisping. i hate hate hate chris leben. out of all the ufc fighters, i dislike him the most.
matt serra is the top welterweight, long island pride is something im big on and his fight against gsp is my favorite fight of all time. extreme dislike for josh koscheck and karo paryisan. (also, big supporter of TUF 9 fighter frank lester)
jens pulver is my all time favorite lightweight. nate diaz, kenny florian, clay guida, corey hill, joe lauzon, gray maynard, phillipe nover, diego sanchez, and joe stevenson are a few of my favs. the lightweights are an amazing weightclass and i love all their fights. its weird to say but my most disliked lightweight..is the champ, bj penn.

Hahaha, now what reason do you hate the Diaz guys for? I never understood hating anyone unless you knew them. They both are great fighters.

Great fighters sure, but I can't stand their attitudes. Plus, the "only if you know them" argument is a slippery slope involving the nature and even the "levels" of hate, if they even exist. Would it make you feel any better if I said I strongly disliked them?

There attitudes have been fine. They just talk sh*t to hype the fight up. A lot of fighters do that.

Knowing full well there is a drug policy in MMA, yet being caught several times, and then basically asking "what did I do wrong?" is fine? The Diaz brothers are scumbags. |

And, I don't ever remember a time where Diaz said "What did I do wrong?". And he hasn't been caught "Several times". There was only one time where a win of his was reversed due to testing positive. |

Favorite FightersHW- Brock Lesnar, Big Nog, Randy Couture LHW- Tito Ortiz, Brandon Vera, Bones Jones, Rampage MW- Anderson Silva, Nate Marquardt WW- GSP, Anthony Johnson LW- BJ Penn, Diego Sanchez, Clay Guida, Kenny Florian Least Favorite FightersHW- Frank Mir LHW- Forrest Griffin MW- Michael Bisping, Chael Sonnen WW- N/A LW- Spencer Fisher You and I have MUCH different tastes. Favorites: Forrest Griffin, Frank Mir, Rich Franklin, Thiago Alves, Dan Henderson. Least: Brock Lesnar, Tito Ortiz, Diego Sanchez. lol... I would add Rich Franklin to one of my favorites... but as far as Frank Mir, he just has become way too smug for my tastes since beating Brock for the first time. Especially when his coaches were joking about Brock being a WWE wrestler...yeah well that WWE wrestler made your face look like hamburger meat. Forrest is WAYYYYY to self-deprecating for my tastes. He is always like "Yeah I'm not very good blah blah blah..but I'm a dog and I'll fight anyone.."....to me it just seems very fake...its like DUDE, you know you are good, why else would you choose to fight Shogun? Why else would you choose to fight Anderson Silva? I know everyone loves him but something about Forrest just seemed very fake to me.. That is just me though, it is cool if you love him. I won't make fun of you or anything. I just don't like Forrest. I could understand you hating Diego. He is cocky, he has an annoying voice...but honestly the guy puts on some of the most entertaining fights.. Clay Guida vs. Diego Karo vs. Diego Nick Diaz vs. Diego etc |
