Prediction: wrong MacDonald   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

I just think too much discussion is on what he wears as opposed to his skill. Rory is only 24 and look how good he is already. I know other topics are brought up but Rory's clothes are a constant topic when it comes to him. By now we know he wears hipster clothes. OK.........

Rory's Ali Shuffle was so bad that I must hate him for all eternity.

@p4p If it was all about skill and fighting...then everyone's favorite would be Jon Jones and GSP, just the best guys. 


There's alot of reasons why people like/dislike certain fighters, and I don't like Rory because he's a ******...his clothes are only part of it. How you talk/act/dress/personality are all different traits that you represent yourself as...and Rory wants to be a smug ****** hipster. And he's a poser, his first few fights he was trying to be like a hip-hop, adidas, like urban kid and it didn't work...so now he's trying the little superior dressed, quiet and mysterious trenchcoat suit guy with slicked hair, it's just annoying...he's trying too hard.


...and he's Canadian.

@Swickotine Yes, it could be that. Or it could be that he's young and is still trying to figure out who he is. ****, the guys 24.

I have hipster glasses.

Swick, do you think the urban 'style' and 'vernacular' is 'cooler' than what you perceive as being a hipster?

I just want an honest explanation. Don't see how you can not like someone because of fashionability. 


a smug ****** hipster. And he's a poser, his first few fights he was trying to be like a hip-hop, adidas, like urban kid and it didn't work...so now he's trying the little superior dressed, quiet and mysterious trenchcoat suit guy with slicked hair, it's just annoying...he's trying too hard.


A smug ****** hipster, and a poser? That's pretty ahrsh for basing everything off the way he dresses. He chanegd style at a young age? Hasn't everybody gone through phases? I know I have, and I know jmcdowell used to be a sufer dude who wore seashell necklaces, and now he is older and doesnt dress like that - its kind of human nature. How is he trying to hard? By wearing nice clothes? I just dont get it dude. But please, I would liek to hear your viewpoint on this, because I am of the thought that the way we dress has no bearing on who we are, and its extremely judgemental to think one thing is better than the other.

Dude, I was literally waiting for you haha...I knew you couldn't resist.


Anyway, I'll just shorten what could be another long thing where we go back and forth, and you say I'm a pothead and I call you a *********.


That's just my opinion on Rory, P4P asked the question of why people bring up his clothes...and i gave my reason for it. That's it.

If you don't wear a Tapout shirt 2 sizes too small and some windbreaker pants and you prefer to dress in nicer clothes then you're a "****** hipster" right? Honestly it would not matter what he wears people will hate on Rory because he's so young and already successful. That's just society.

Just a side note doesn't Anderson Silva wear hipster glasses? And he's 38 years old. Nobody says ****. The fighters I don't like it has nothing to do with what style of clothes they wear. Pretty dumb reason to dislike someone imo.

No, I'm making an honest effort to not engage im stupid arguments on this website. 

I was JW. But unlike a lot of mma fans, I do dress on the hippier/classier side, so I'm interested as to the insecurities with fighters or fans who dress differently.

Prediction: correct Lawler   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Damn, this got out of hand real quick. I honestly regret making my initial comment, I don't really care how he chooses to dress I just thought the colour of that jacket was terrible and his suits are too small/tight. Everybody has these thoughts and often will engage in conversation about it in day to day life. I'm sure we are all judge mental in ways we might not even realize, but in the end I don't think anyone truly has any true hate or dislike it's just part of human nature.

I thought I made that clear when I apologized for my statement said it was stupid and complemented Rory (who would absolutely destroy me in any form of sport)

@Frontkick it didn't get out of hand at all...and quit apologizing for your opinion.


We're having an argument about a topic on a forum....that's what it's for. Man, these mods around here have really scared people with these unfair suspensions. I don't like Jitz and he doesn't like Me...it's the ******* internet. C'mon guys...

Does he need glasses? I don't know. Do people need to wear chains? Just because glasses serve an actual function for vision, doesn't mean they can't be worn without the need. Just like chains, do you need a chain? Do you wear a chain to look better, and have better style? Yes. Why is Robbie wearing a hat? Does he need a hat?

Well, the difference is a hat is a hat. Glasses were invented for people with sight problems, and some can be very severe. What purpose does a hat serve or a chain you dumb ass troll?
