Does the Russian-Muslim-Wrestling domination in MMA annoy you?

[MerakSahibi]

White men nowadays are gay and feminist, and most of those representing the US are Black or Hispanic.

However, do you think that these men coming from Dagestan—a region with a population just one percent of the US—representing Muslims Russia and eliminating their opponents with their wrestling, both strike a blow to your identity and lower the entertainment value of the fights?

Yes

No

Honestly, no. 😂 I watch MMA for the skill, strategy, discipline, and competition, not to protect anyone's identity or ego.

If a fighter can dominate his opponents through wrestling, conditioning, and technique, then credit where it's due. Dagestani fighters have built a reputation for being exceptionally disciplined grapplers, and there's nothing wrong with appreciating that.

As for the claim that American men are becoming too feminine or that certain ethnic groups are taking over representation, I think that's an entirely different conversation. A fighter's nationality, race, religion, or sexuality doesn't determine how entertaining or talented he is.

Now, do I sometimes find wrestling-heavy fights less entertaining than a competitive striking match? Absolutely! 😂 I enjoy a good exchange of punches and kicks as much as anyone. But that's a matter of personal taste, not resentment toward the people dominating the sport.

Competition is supposed to reveal who is best at the sport, not reassure us that our own group is superior. If someone from Dagestan beats an American fighter, that's not a blow to my identity. It's a fighter doing his job better on that particular night.

Besides, MMA has always evolved as athletes from different backgrounds bring new techniques and strategies into the cage. That's part of what makes the sport interesting.

I'll criticize a boring fight regardless of the fighter's background, and I'll appreciate an exciting performance regardless of where the fighter comes from. Simple. 🥊

Dagestan people are white. Eastern Europeans in most combat sports and sports in general are starting to do very well.

Its like this. If you were an American athlete would you go into boxing or MMA for $50,000 a fight or would you go play NFL football and earn millions from day 1 ?

They've historically been warriors, so I'm not surprised. But that guy who's name I can never remember, who owns a restaurant and fought McGregor, is literally an Islamist/terrorist sympathizer, so it doesn't sit well with me that he is employed by an American company. Also, they're very backwards, assholish and vengeful people. He already beat Connor in the ring for insulting his ethnicity and him and his family. But it wasn't enough. His BROTHER had to jump in and commit ACTUAL ASSAULT on Connor.

Muslim men are gay paedophiles that practice pederasty at a much higher rate then there's any feminist white men.

I'm more annoyed by Dana White and Connor McGregor.
