It's just that celebreties used to be the only ones you saw on a screen. Nowadays when Bum**** McTapargueson can livestream from his basement and have the same or greater airtime than a celeb. That takes the shine off them a bit.
Also Hollywood is a deranged cult.

I agree the fight as a whole was not a robbery and the correct person won imo.

But giving Gaethje a 10 - 8 is a robbery. And totally disrespectful to Fiziev

for people saying this wasnt a robbery, one judge gave r1 to gaethje. if he scored it for fiziev as he should have, it would have been a draw which is a fair result

Anyone except Usman would've been the more popular fighter than Edwards in his home country.
