There WASN'T an "Arguement" Until Godfather Disputed REED's Claim that the UFC was Predominantly White...It IS... Sure, the ELITE Level is Integrated, but MOST of the Undercard PPV Bouts Feature WHITE Guys...On your Typical Season of TUF, U MIGHT have 1-2 Minorities & the Rest WHITE...This Particular Season has 3 Minorities... It IS what it IS...NATHAN to Get DEFENSIVE about... REED:hammert:
I guess it all depends on your definition of 'predominantly' is. To me, it means 'overwhelming majority', and so to me that means the UFC isn't predominantly white. If you consider 50.1% as being predominantly, then you may think differently. Look at tonight's televised card... White fighters: Brillz Bisping Miller Duffee Russow Hathaway Lauzon Non-white fighters: Rampage Rashad Little Nog Diego Sadollah The Donger Escudaro To me, if half the fighters on the card aren't white, then it's not predominantly white. TFK
The "Overwhelmingly Majority" IS White Though...Of the 209 on the Roster, 111 were White...That's 53%, Keeping in Mind that 15-20 Fighters DIDN'T have a Picture Posted & ANOTHER 15-20 Toe'd the Line to the Point that REED COULDN'T Definitively Say if they were White or Not... The % of Whites to Non-Whites is 53-47, Approximately...But U CAN'T just Lump All the Non-Whites Together, Because they're NOT All the Same Race/Ethnicity...Of the 98 Non-Whites, REED would Guess that Roughly HALF R Latino...So Let's Say 49 Latino... REED will B Generous & Credit the UFC w/Having 20 Brothers...That Encompasses 69 of the 98 Non-Whites...Let's Call the Remaining 29 "Other"... 111 Whites 49 Latino 29 Other 20 Black How is the UFC NOT Predominantly White???... REED:dunno:
U CAN'T Lump All the Non-White Guys Together as if they're the SAME...They're NOT... Rampage & Rashad R Black... Nog, Diego & Escudero R Latino... REED is Presuming that Sadollah is of Middle Eastern Descent... Not Sure WHO or WHAT the Fuck the "Donger" Is... So On Tonight's PPV, there's 7 White Fighters, 3 Latino's, 2 Brothers, 1 Donger & a Partridge in a Pear Tree...Tonight's PPV is Predominantly WHITE.... REED:mj:
Anyone see the weigh-ins on Spike? Rampage looked really weight drained to me. Hopefully this isn't the case. Funny shit when he got on the scales with Superman underoos! :laughing:
I'm not a huge follower of UFC, but this strikes me as a rare occasion where the main event of a major card is between two African Americans. Is this a first? I hope Rashad wins, I get a bad read from Rampage.
Rashad will get KTFO when Shogun chin checks him. RUA won't come in out of shape like RAMPAGE did, he will jump on him once Rashad is staggered, yet again.
Wow. A lot of you are acting like this is Gatti against PBF. Rashad has been in there with two big punchers after being KTFO and gritted out decisions. I expect him to do the same against Rua. I also expect to read how you knew it would be possible after the fight.
Joe: I bet Rua beats Rashad. I am willing to bet 30 days of sig space against you. If I win, I want your sig to say ( in big block letters and size 6 font): "Intelligent design is a bunch of crap, and I'm a moron for believing it". If Rashad wins, my sig will say whatever you want it to say for 30 days. Bet?
Rashad was also nearly finished by both fighter to strikes but wasn't because they didn't follow up. Also, Silva is shit and Rampage was obviously not himself.
Sure. I want yours to say ( in big block letters and size 6 font): I bought this internet forum because I needed a place that I could control so I wouldn't be run off from messageboards anymore and so that my mom wouldn't have to defend me in e-battles that I started but couldn't finish. :hammert:
