You have absolutely no information as to why they joined.

Thats why i said, registered in this month with very little posts, i saw many of them bashing Machida and having 1-10 posts. What im saying is, there were alot of trolls under fake accounts that day.

Machida is crap for my viewing pleasure. That is what I pay for. You can be technical, and not be boring as fuck. That is all I ask for.

If exciting fights is rednecks like Leben flopping their arms around like retarded roosters, be my guest.

And here we see the elusive and rarely photographed Machida running away from, no wait, running OVER its prey.

I do appreciate his style but don't enjoy it do you understand that. I can continue to state my opinion as you can yours.

I think the third option includes more of the I think he is skilled but is boring crowd as they wouldn't fit in the other two. And like myself don't care.

You just posted a poll of about 1300 people total, all on Sherdog. I didn't even vote in that poll. How is it, that you think 1300 Sherdog posters compare to the opinion of 10,000 ticket buying audience attendees or the thousands of people that actually buy PPV's? (I would laugh if people claimed that even 50% of Sherdoggers bought PPV's)

This is all irrelevant. A so-called "vet" is saying that if you hate Machida's style, you like people like Tank Abbot. What an ignorant douchebag.

Just because I don't like Machida, doesn't mean all I want to see is two people swinging at each other.

I wanna see two people FIGHT period. I don't care if it's striking, wrestling, GNP or Jiu Jitsu. I just wanna see a fight. That's the problem, Machida doesn't fight. His opponents fight and he slaps them for trying. I had him picked against Tito and I was very pissed that he didn't finish it because he COULD'VE. That was HIS fight, all he had to do was engage and win. Tito wasn't going to knock him out, so I don't get where the whole "oh he's supposed to endanger himself" talk comes from. What danger? Tito scoring his FIRST KO victory in 20 fights to a guy with better striking than him? Might as well not take baths from the "danger" of drowning yourself.

And what you 'think' about who voted what is unsubstantiated.

I am stating my opinion as are you. And the accuracy of the poll in regards to choices and it's interpretation is in question in my opinion.

For the last time I don't care either way, my opinion is Machida is a skilled talented fighter who's style I don't really care for. Will I watch his fights yes, do I think he sucks, no.
