| Why all fn' UFC hate
Why is almost everyone in here hating on the UFC?? Come on y'all WTF??? The last few years MMA has really taken off, with some AMAZING fights!!! Fights we all have been waiting to see for YEARS!!!
Did Kimbo vs Tank set the pace???? NO! Oh maybe is was Baroni vs Shamrock, oh maybe Fedor vs Long Duck Dong (thanks Dana)... WONG AGAIN. The last few years has been incredible and can be explained with 3 letters... UFC!!!
Dana and the rest of the staff at the UFC have been signing fighters, and putting together some kick ass events (minus the Evans/Bisping headliner), and there are some really exciting fights/events yet to come, not to mention a stacked fight night for freakin FREE.
So to all of you bitching about how you wish AA, Tito, KOS, Swick, Couture (at least that he doesn't return) etc.. all leave the UFC.... STFU!!!! The UFC can't and wont be able to sign every big name in the game, but they most certainly have the vast majority of them. I also don't want to hear the BS about how it will be good for the sport, and force the UFC to work with other promotions, that simply ain't gonna happen, and would be stupid for the UFC to do it, since it is a win/win situation for the smaller promotions, and the UFC has NOTHING to gain from it. The UFC doesn't have to prove they have the best fighters in the world, because everyone knows they do, including Shaw, Cuban, Meyrowitz, Cox, etc... who want that UFC banner hanging in the ring while they televise, and or through a fighter in the ring.
Since when is sacrificing your own company to make another better a good business decisions?
OK my rant is done!

You got people that wont be happy with the leader. They feel like they are making some sort of statement by hating on the UFC.
UFC rules.

I loves what the UFC has done for the sport. They're like a generous oil company that gives away free gas every so often and pisses off local Jim's Gas and Tire Service. I wish I could get free gas.
Anyways, most if not all of the FA's will sign back with the UFC (Randy withstanding IMO). And whatever fighters the UFC has will be the ones I really want to watch because they are they to fight the best of the best.

I hate the UFC because of their lack of action when it comes to the Darfur genocide.
