Alright I'll try your method, the general public IS accepting MMA, you know nothing of the general public as you have your own deluded definition of 'cowardly', and 'manly'.MMA has a broader fanbase than 18-35 white Americans, you know nothing of the subject so why keep faking it?

Oh no? Once again you prove you know nothing about the topic at hand.

People have accused me of trolling, have basically called me a prick and a fool... let me tell you that I speak honestly when I say I love boxing, I love sports, I love watching two men go toe to toe in an honest fight. I HATE and feel SICK to see a man who is put down hit on the floor. This genuiely disgusts me. I am not lying to you or playing a game or just trolling for negative comments. I REALLY hate this MMA for this reason. It REALLY sickens me to see a man who is down be hit. I dont like to watch.

I don't think you're a troll, ignorant about the topic, obviously, but a troll no. No one has called you a prick, the word has been used often, but not prick. It can sicken you all you want, doesn't mean you speak for the public, and by trying to you show you don't know anything about MMA, you say it has no fan base when it does, you say the 'general public' won't accept it when it obviously does. People have used a number of means to prove you wrong and when presented with this proof you bury you head in the sand and call the MMA professional 'hooligans' and 'thugs' call them 'cowardly' and insult them. If you don't like to watch, great you're more than welcome not to turn the telly to MMA fights, but don't insult the fighters when you have no idea what you're on about, you have a deluded sense of what is manly and seem to think boxing is the epitome of manliness.

I have NO respect for anyone who, for sport, takes part in a spectacle when a man who is down can be hit. They may be good thugs, but they are not men.

Once again you insult something you're clueless about, you are more than welcome to your opinion that they are not men, but who are you to decide what is manly and what is not?
Just thought I'd add, Matt Hughes is on the cover of Men's Fitness this month as well, once again proving mainstream people and the general public support MMA.
