Ill name 3 that come to.mind immediately.
1. "Latinos are taking the sport over like boxing" " Blacks will dominate this sport like NBA and NFL" or "In 10 years every champ will be Russian". Sigh, if people only knew how stupid these beliefs are...
2. The **** erotic stigma attached to MMA, grappling and wrestling. Even in Jest, **** is getting old.
3. That theres three facets to MMA " wrestling, Jiu Jitsu and Kickboxing ". Dumb **** right there if that's all you can see or think people train or all that works...just come on.
What are some of yours?
"If I have a goal, then it is to escape from this literalism. I'll never achieve it; in the same way that I'll never manage to describe what really dwells within my character, although I keep on trying."

"MMA becoming too much like a sport and putting winning/rankings/etc over being entertaining and a fighter."

90% of the comments on Dana White's page are:
1) "Who cares, the UFC is fixed"
2) "You suck because [insert fighter name here] isn't fighting who I want them to fight"
3) "It's your fault because [insert fight ending in controversial decision] didn't go the way I thought it did"
4) "You don't care about the sport"
The best part is Dana White's "facebook page" is just his twitter connected to facebook, so he probably never sees those comments and people demand responses from him.

some beautiful contributions here, guys. Keep 'em coming.
I'd also like to nominate fanboys who act like teens towards their favorite fighters and celebrate like schoolgirls every antic and stupid little thing they say or do, especially those on board of the self-proclaimed GOAT, Conor McGregor and the self-proclaimed Middleweight Champion & Gangster, Chael Sonnen.

As someone else mentioned when a fighter is only point fighting to exploit the scoring system.
Fans putting too much stock in a loss. Assuming a guy is a can or glass jawed after a loss.

Bisping has only lost to TRT using cheats. He beat Sonnen, he beat Rashad. He is god. The list of guys he has lost to is Dan Henderson, Vitor Belfort, and Wanderlei Silva. That's it. 2 of them are TRT using cheats. 2 cancers on the sport of MMA. The other is the best fighter to ever walk planet earth. I think the easiest fight to get to a title shot is Canderson.

If you are going to say Bisping beat Chael, you have to say he lost to Hamill.

Mikelovestacos is like your drunk uncle at a family gathering. Everyone is laughing and having a good time, then drunk Uncle Mike starts screaming about a 9/11 cover up. "Ugh, here we go again, we got Uncle Mike started" But, on the same hand, it just wouldn't be the same without him.

Murderers. Ehhh. Let em rot in prison. Double parkers. Death Penalty.
Specifically the people that do it where I work. They ******* parallel park in a regular parking lot behind cars because they don't want to get off their lard ass and walk an extra 4 minutes. Cuz it's always my car they park in front of.
