and thats what sucks. If he actually was objective about it and gave good opinions, it would add to this forum and not actually bring it down. Since he is an Admin, coming in here bashing the sport all the time, simply shows the fans and everyone in here disrespect. And who wants to post in a place where they are constantly being disrespected by a an admin?
Cage fighting doesn't command respect. But that's for another topic. Let's talk about why Cruz doesn't have bad D. What do you think, Godfather?
That was an awesome move and one of the coolest things i've ever seen in a fight. When Faber tried to do his bounce of the cage and land the reverse elbow on Brown, that's arguably going to be luck if it works, but Pettis' move was intentional the whole way and he was in position after he landed the kick. That's not luck.
I didnt say you were disrespecting cage fighting. I said you were disrespecting its fans. That you were disrepecting US. Its disgusting. And its not cool.
He tries to stay away but anytime something interesting happens in MMA he has to come here to try and diminish it. Fans were buzzing about a great WEC finale and like clockwork, SD shows up with negative comments. To me it has become more amusing than annoying. The regular MMA posters now have a good idea of SD's stance (He doesn't like or watch MMA yet always seems to casually catch every event). ::::
I wouldnt say they are soft. Defensive maybe. Just like all fans are defensive agaisnt the sports they love. You too have said in this forum that when the talk of boxing comes up, you will be here defending the sport. So im not sure why you think the feeling is exclussive to MMA fans. That being said, my point is that you disrespect this forum and its members. Your fellow members. New members that want to come in here and chat, but wont due to bashing. And not just from some members in the GD section, but the admin. I will say this tho. If you werent an admin i would ban you from this forum just like Hanzy is. You are literally that disruptive. I know you dont see it, but as a friend, i am telling you.
Sorry man, I can't help it. If this community of douche bags and their baby blue forum stopped giving me ammo, I'd leave. The thing is, guys like my boy Trplsec enjoy going back and forth with me. If he didn't, he wouldn't reply to every single one of my posts. How many people are only banned from the boxing forum? No one. That's because we aren't uppity over there. Come over and be yourself. You'll get ripped on, but be a man and it's no big deal. This isn't a cage fighting site. It's a boxing site, and the sports (both Saturday night Pay Per View fighting sports) are in direct competition. So know your surroundings and expect the odd boxing fan to come in and tell it like it is.
I actually agree with Steve on this. I know he doesn't dig MMA and likes to shit on it. But I don't want him gone. The difference in opinions keeps it interesting. I post in the boxing forum every once in a while, I don't think I ever see someone asking for someone to be banned. Personally, I think Steve usually hangs himself beings his comments never have consistency so its like Trplsec said, comical. Or did he say ammusing? One of the two anyway. Its all good, Steve. I mean, you are Canadian.artie:
This forum is an MMA forum. Also the name of this place is fightbeat. Not Boxbeat. Just like fightnews covers all aspects of fighting. There are plenty of people banned from the boxing site. Trolls get banned all the time. You have banned plenty of people. Im not sure what you mean? BTW, whenever boxing is discussed in here or critized in here, you cry loudest.
He has no educated opinion on the matter. He is threatened by MMA and wants to discredit it. At the same time, insulting everyone in here.
Here is my point. This forum has specific rules. No bashing MMA, no flaming, etc. Specific things that Steve-Dave does. Now others cant do it, but he can. He is doing it because he is a mod. If he wasnt a mod, it woulndt be allowed. A simple look at the rules, will clearly shows that the admin on this forum is constantly breaking them.
So lets say I went to General Discussion and was bashing boxing, do you really think I'd be banned? I just think the guys over there would hand me my ass and that would take care of it. I guess I just don't dig the banning thing. We are all grown ups, if you want to talk shit, back it up and don't get hurt when people hand you your ass EVEN if it gets personal.
Continually? Yes. We have done it. If all you are is a troll that just posts to insult and degrade, then whats the point of it? Do you think we should let hanzy and Lok back in here?
Well, I am with Jarhead, I am 100% against bannings. Guys that are idiots and trolls normally get handled and people know how to view them. SD is a perfect example. He comes in here to illicit response and get attention. We all know that now. No big deal. What is funny is him calling MMA fans defensive and whiny when he is the one that comes into the MMA forum stomping his feet like a 5 year old saying "This is a boxing site not an MMA site!!!!!!" That made my day. Next SD will threaten to take his ball and go home.
Wow, way to label everyone. So we're all a bunch of douche bags? That's a little harsh don't you think?
Steve_Dave is just getting his kicks in. :: That said, I like to rib him about being the kid in 3rd grade whos too old and manly for Blue's Clues, but has a "little brother" that makes him watch every episode and know all of the characters. ::
Steve doesn't usually degrade guys with personal insults. He does attack MMA, no doubt, but he does have some decent knowledge of it too. TLC's analogy was soooo money::
