I'm surprised the music really bothers that many people...its not that hard to just ignore it...
The only thing that really bothers me about watching events at restaurants/bars is when I hear people commenting on how "boring" some rounds are just because no one was knocked out. I had the misfortune of watching the GSP vs Fitch fight at Twin Peaks and by the 4th round there were guys complaining that its not over and how boring the right was. I was truly amazed that anyone could call the GSP vs Fitch fight boring.

I would add not being able to see the best fight the best thanks to Dana White/UFC... Its about the best ticket seller vs the best ticket seller.
As far as the music... I couldnt stand UFCs theme song Face the pain by Stemm, but now i can tolerate it. Its just Rap/Hip hop and Rock/Metal music really polarizes an audience because there are ppl out there that cant stand rap or metal....
Best road would be to use classical music like PRIDE did.

11. The Iron Ring, and the people who try to talk about it in an attempt to seem like they know a lot about MMA when in fact they are only displaying how completely clueless they are of the sport.
12. YAMMA
13. Moron: "oh dude are you watching UFC"
Me: "no, it's affliction"
Moron: "Oh so is it still UFC or what"
Me: "no, it is MMA, Mixed Martial Arts"
Moron: "Oh you mean Ultimate Fighting"
Me: "yes, thank you for correcting me. Your knowledge is overwhelming"

Kenny Rice is way worse there is no way if you ever listen to him that would still think Mauro is bad.
See what I saying when you bash Mauro who is liked and compare him Mike Goldberg who is a complete idiot, it makes your list a little less good.
I would give your post a 10, but because of the Mauro diss I would give it a 5.
Also you should listen to Fight Network Radio its the best mma radio show.
Hardcore Sports Radio
just hit where it says ARCHIVE and you can listen to the podcats

That's hilarious.
I'm going to start acting totally clueless and asking every douche-wannabe that every time I see someone in MMA gear.
Thank you.

Stephen Quadros > Mauro Renallo
As for the rest of the list, I don't know how many times I've had to cockslap someone irl because they were shitting on MMA and makin homo erotic comments when any sort of ground fighting was going on. So I'd say that's the one that pisses me off the most.
I do have to say something about the 'controversy' over the term rape choke. Are you guys serious? It's funny because Rogan said it on national television, and the idea of it in MMA is ridiculous. If you offend so easy, because you know so many rape victims, I'd tell you to stop cruising rape counseling groups for trim......
It was a joke. Bad taste and all. Take a deep breath, and relax. =P

yea the casual fans are the worst. I don't know if this has happened to anybody else, but the ABSOLUTE WORST is when somebody's like "yea ufc is awesome" the weekend after a fight, and when you ask them if they watched it or what they thought of it they have no fucking clue what happened.

Actually, I know so many rape victims because I'm an addictions counselor working with a college-age population, and I deal with a lot of women who get assaulted by idiots who think that's its something to dismiss if they just take a deep breath and relax.
So yes, Rogan's off-hand comment is totally hilarious...if you are a fucking idiot.
