Because he is boring and acts like he deserves huge paydays. You want to earn huge paydays then don't fight like an octopus. I get it his style is very effective and works for him but fans don't enjoy it. Also calling out a retired legend to build your own name doesn't go down well with me.
He does deserve huge paydays, he’s the UFC champion.

Why does this bother you so much?
You deserve huge paydays if you can make people pay to see you. No one wants to watch his octopus style and rightly so as it's boring. The only fight of his that was exciting was the Covington fight because Colby made it so that he couldn't turn it into a hugging match.
You work for the UFC now? Just calm down you sound like Usman smashed your mrs back doors in.

So Usman can count on you to pay to see him headline a PPV then?

I don't like whiney fighters who think they deserve huge paydays when their fighting style is so fan unfriendly. You want huge paydays then put on exciting fights period.

I get BT Sports free with my phone so I don’t have to PPV much. I also subscribe to fight pass. I’m happy he’s getting paid, he’s a superb fighter who knows how to win in the octagon. I found his fight with Jorge boring of course but I didn’t think for one second he shouldn’t get paid.

Wtf is wrong with hating a fighter that's miserable to watch? Or a whiny bitch like khabib? This dude is both. Nobody was defending John Ruiz.

Colby will make things right with Marty from Nebraska. Other than that, I'll do what I did with his last fight. Shut it off and go to bed.

I think their hate comes from the fact they have to pay to watch him, whereas we don’t 😂

That’s true, Id be pissed at paying $60 for that card. I mean it was stacked but I didn’t really enjoy it.

The superiority of these UFC cards over the swill Top Rank has been serving us is pretty striking.

Now khabib wants conor/Justin. This guy is everything he hates McGregor for and he lacks conors balls. Can't think of a more unlikeable current athlete.

Evidently, if someone gets killed it might be by this guy chimaev. Damn, 15 pounds lighter and 10 days later! This dude is like khabib with balls.

I wouldn't say that. Maybe not, that's the best grappling heavyweight in history.

Agreed, after two old men went at it.

Till looked rattled after the knockdown. Barely threw any strikes after that, just a ton of feints.

I thought Whittaker won 4-1 and was surprised to hear some people scored it for Till.

I think it would hard to argue a score anything other than 4-1
