Because you have been SO unbiased by calling anyone who respectfully disagrees with you a nuthugger. :^)
And by the way, it's objective not subjective.

Secondly, I never called people who disagree with me nuthuggers, i stated diaz has the biggest nuthuggers, and that is just a fact. Which fans are more nuthuggers then Diaz's? I really like to know, because at this point it pretty much a recognized fact. BJ Penn fans had passed there torch quite awhile back.
Thirdly, you got me there it is objective.

the problem is the scoring system. people pick which sig strikes they think are harder then they give rounds to fighters. then we have takedowns that do nothing but still wins rounds. even knockdowns dont have any rules in mma. also point fighting happens more because landed strikes are the most important
i wish the refs had more control or even a point system where coming into that last round guys know if they are about to lose if they dont finish their opponent i wish submission were given respect.
example the 2nd round after the knockdowns big john raises a hand for points it 2-0, then diaz gets him in the corner and goes for the finish (like wrestling with the back to the mat) tries the finish and big john awards 1 or 2 if he was close to calling it.

First off, Im more unbias then someone who spent literally months bashing the fighter and down playing them at every turn. Or did you miss the countless post Rapp made over course of the last 4 months bashing conor?
I am not defending Rappinpap's point of view. I could give a **** about it. He can defend his own ramblings. What I am more concerned with is how you, along with others, paint everyone who has a different view on how the fight should be scored in a broad stroke of being "Diaz nuthuggers" and how you sound like a complete ******* ass hat when saying it. Because apparently, on this forum, we can't respectfully disagree on a result. Otherwise, we are all a bunch of "butthurt nuthuggers".

You got so many dislikes because you completely missed my point.
@rapp
You do understand that opinions can be wrong, right? This idea that opinions cannot be wrong, is just not accurate. Peoples opinions are wrong all the time. This idea that people opinion's can't be wrong, is just some ******** pc nonsense.

I am far from PC so that is a BS saying.
Yes, in my case my opinion are neither right nor wrong as they just say something that is not able to be quantified to be proven. If they were, then that would mena that someone's opinion is worth less than anyone else's.
Example. So and so is a better fighter than another does not have any litmus test that is absolute. That is how my opinions are.

Franklin your an ass clown where have not understood your love of conors every move. The truth is conor didn't fight like he talks. He knock down a guy 3 times and was too much of a ***** to attempt a finish he won by in inch. As much as I hate Nate at least he tried to finish the fight.

what no one has talked about is how Conor spend 300k in a tailor made camp to fight Diaz and he barley squeezed a decision (and im doing my best to not call it a controversial decision, but I guess I just did) And Diaz came out with his same style to give Conor the fight of his life.
Im positive Diaz takes fight No 3
Conor is banking on having a bigger gas tank at LW, but im not so sure it will translate like that, but what I do thiink is that he will have a bit less power behind his punches, take it easy take a breath and read that again slowly... im not saying he wont have power but he wont be as heavy as in WW and he will miss that bit extra weight behind his punches against DIaz.
