In an about face from my other thread, I wonder who are the fighters you can't stand in any way and why? I'm guessing the likes of War Machine and Jake Shields would be popular, but do you have any others besides them? Mine are:
- Rousimar Palhares: For holding onto submissions way after guys have tapped. Fighting-wise never engaged me. - Michael Bisping: For truly disrespectful behaviour, including spitting at the opposing fighter's team. Never the best striker or someone I had to check out his fights. - Josh Koscheck: The lay and pray stuff, eye pokes and feigning injury, like in the Paul Daley fight.
How about you?

I've never really been a fan of: - Roy Nelson - Gilbert Melendez - Johny Hendricks - Josh Koscheck - Jake "Yawn" Shields - Michael Bisping: For truly disrespectful behaviour, including spitting at the opposing fighter's team. I know Bisping is a love/hate type of guy - but I don't blame him at all for that whole spitting thing... Jorge Rivera's camp had really crossed the line with some of those videos they made and the way they were involving his family.

Definitely Koscheck. lol Not suprised to see him listed here. Don't like McGregor, Luke Rockhold, Palhares is a douchebag. All the four I said all come off as complete tools to me. I like most fighters though, not really many I can hate on.

1) Rampage-Big whining crybaby. Put out a racist DVD of himself going around Tokyo and making fun of the Japanese when that country made him who he is
2) Jon Fitch-Responsible for some of the most boring $#!+ ever captured on video
3) Josh Thomson-Pretty boy who thinks he is hot $#!+ just because he trains at AKA
Honorable Mentions:
-Jason Mayhem Miller
-Phil Baroni
-Bobby Southworth
-Jon Koppenhaver

I guess out of context it looks worse, I don't know. lol

All the main ones have been said, but I guess for me it'd be guys like Junie Browning, Kalib Starnes and Rich Clementi.
Wasn't a fan of them as guys but fighting-wise it was not hard to see they had talent: Brian Ebersole, Shonie Carter and Karo Parisyan.

Brandon Vera. His victory dance is really stupid.
Wes Sims. I loved it when Mir handed his ass to him.

Really dislike Conor McGregor ever since the first Diaz fight. Up until that fight I loved him. Him losing (in my opinion) to Diaz twice and avoiding defending his title annoys me greatly.
Also Yoel Romero. Cheating bastard.

GSP. His like 5 year stretch of play-it-safe fights made me hate him.
I can't stand Cyborg. She's obviously been on sauce for the better part of her entire career and now she can't make weight in the UFC and isn't fighting anyone of value anyway. I genuinely think if she, by some miracle, can make 135, Ronda will annihilate her.

I like Cyborg but I think her run and gun style of offense is exactly what Ronda needs her to do to gain one of her killer Judo hip tosses and possibly submit her. Ronda could probably learn something from watching that Baars/Cyborg kickboxing match from a few years ago. I know Cyborg's got size on her but I definitely think her olympic experience can handle her. That being said, if Cyborg can land a few decent shots time herself well, and keep the distance, I could see her KOing Ronda. I really, really want to see that fight though.

That being said, if Cyborg can land a few decent shots time herself well, and keep the distance, I could see her KOing Ronda. I really, really want to see that fight though. I don't think Ronda stands a chance against her in a stand up and strike fight, as evident by her blind rage Holly Holm fight. However, armbar Rhonda would take it to Cyborg on the mat. I'd like to think she's learned her lesson from the Holm fight though and she'll be going back to what made her famous. I know Cyborg has a brown belt but we've never really actively seen her use it. She relies totally on her kick boxing ability, and for very good reason. That plays right into Ronda's judo though, which is world class the way Cyborg is a world class kick boxer. They're yin and yang in there in terms of style. If it's going to happen, it's absolutely going to have to happen at a catch weight. Cyborg can't do it. 135 is too small for her and she's not going to give up her size advantage to drop down. That's my biggest problem with her is all the sh*t she talked about taking that title and she still hasn't cleared the weight yet. I think Ronda's first fight back will be against Nunes. She's going to get a title shot right away. At that point, I think a Holly Holm rematch is definitely going to be in the cards. I have no doubt they'll eventually get to the Cyborg fight, but it won't be for the title and Dana isn't going to have Ronda come back and walk right into that fight. I'm not trying to undersell Nunes or Holm here either but I think Cyborg is definitely the much more dangerous fight of the 3. Ronda is a golden goose and he's going to do everything he can to get her back on top before doing that Cyborg fight. I mean that's obviously where the money is at anyway.

Uncle Crappy and any of the other vanilla midgets not named Jose Aldo or Connor McGregor. none of them have any power and just run in circles. I don't remember who it was, two of the lighter weight guys literally killed the idea of me and my friends getting together for UFC parties. we were all so bored during a horrible 125ers main event, where they ran in circles and tapped each other for 5 rounds, that we never got together for PPVs again. I want to say it's that walking amber alert Uncle Crappy.

He was a good fighter, but him as a guy, he seems like a tool.
