Just because we're average Joe's doesn't make it 100% impossible for us to EVER even in 100 years beat a professional fighter.

What if Rampage secretly posted way back in the day on a MMA message board and encountered a similar thread that Gogo posted. Would you still feel the same way? Would it still be fighter bashing for him think some day he could beat the best? Yes it'd be dumb for someone to say tomorrow they could beat Chuck Liddell but if they say some day or if they already are a pro fighter we don't have just cause to say they can't, how do we know?
The thread was asking who can you beat now. It is disprespecting the fightings because it is saying that somone with very little or no professional fighting experience can beat a skilled pro with plenty of experience. It is about that same as saying "any average joe can beat fight X"

It wasn't asking who can you beat with a bunch of training and experience. With enough training, dedication, and experience anyone can feasibly beat anyone.
