French MMA fans= japanese MMA nuthuggers, and US MMA haters
Browse the french forums, speak with them on Sherdog, meet them in the real life. This is a fact.
Is it sheer anti-americanism? See the way they treated Lance Armstrong!

The French gave us good wine, great cheese, The Statue of Liberty, The Paris Commune, Descartes, Ferdinand de Saussure, Camus, The modern Olympic Games and GSP. For this I forgive them petty annoyances like Napolean, French humor and their overall rudeness.

Yes, it's all anti-americanism.
The fact kickboxing is popular in France, and they have local talent being successful in K-1, while they have none in the UFC has NOTHING to do with it...

French fighters haven't integrated into the UFC very well. The only French nationalist I can think of is Jess Lliadiun (sp).. "the Joker," and he got KTFO by Marcus Davis.
The French used to really love Hollywood. Andre Bazin made numerous writings about the American Western, cowboys and Hollywood cinema. After the Lumiere brothers made the first film in 1891 (?) American and France (and Europe) have always had cinema to fall back on.
They fucking loved Hollywood; now I imagine they like whatever is edgy and independent. Michael Moore was a big splash if that's any indication. Also, obviously they hold Quinton Tarantino and probably Marty in high regard.
The French love Jazz; they love American black music. I'm not sure about other genres of American music (outside of orchestral) that really are a huge splash there. Certain hip hop, obviously... there's some really tight French Hip Hop.. the French dialect sounds really nice over hip hop music.
I'd love to hear some recommendations if anybody knows of any tight French stuff...

I don't think anyone is.
However when it comes to the events themselves... |
