Guide on how not to be a casual UFC/MMA fan: Made by @khebib_memes

So you’ve finally decided to transition into a casual, to a REAL educated


fan, great! You might be asking yourself how do I start? Well this is why I
created the guide, to help you! Below I’m going to give a step by step
guide on how you can become a real non casual fan.

1: The first thing you have to do is watch complete fights and do research
on fighters history, preparation, and decisions, among other things. You
can't call yourself a true fan if you just follow the guy who is currently
famous for some cause.

2: Watch UFC/MMA podcasts/shows. If you want to have a really good


understanding and hear other peoples opinions you should go watch
them! A podcast I recommend is the Ariel Helwani and DC podcast, a
great one! They talk about various points and views of fighters, what
they’re doing, what’s going on in their life, and stuff like that.

3: Watch some of the prelims! In order to become a true fan you must
watch some of the prelims, some, not all but it would be better if you
watched all of them, your choice. Do you think you are a true fan if you
only watch the main card? No way! Watching prelims make for great
entertainment and increases your knowledge of who’s who and what they
can do inside the octagon/cage.

4: UFC isn’t the only promotion for fights. There are many other
promotions such as Bellator, One Champion just to name a few, if you
would like to become a well knowledgeable fan, you should watch other
promotions as well!
5: Takedowns.. I cannot understand why some people hate when a fighter
takes down someone, if you boo during a takedown watch some other
sport like Muay Thai or boxing. MMA is a sport where people can do
whatever the hell they want in order to win wether it is by KO, submission,
or stoppage. (Has to comply by the rules).

6: Booing. If you guys were watching UFC 261 and were watching the
Zhang vs. Weili card, you could hear after Zhang got KO’d a lot of people
were booing at her for no reason at all. DO NOT BE LIKE THESE PEOPLE.
Those people were an example of what a retarded casual sound like. Also
booing at nut shots, eye pokes, illegal knees, stuff like that. Do you really
think the person who eye poked his/her opponent did it on purpose?
Nope! Have some class and don’t boo at them for f#@k’s sake.

7: You don’t have to do this but learn some form of martial arts! You will
know the blood sweat and tears that comes with training and will
understand what fighters have to go through when they train.

8: I can go on and on about this topic but it would be way to long to


explain, the rest you will have to learn on your own. I hope you guys
successfully become a true UFC/MMA fan! Good luck on your journey!
