View Poll Results: Is doing this over your beaten opponent right?

VincePierce · 11-24-2010, 11:29 AM

Re edit : the issue was the proximity to a fallen opponent and the lack of respect either for them or the fact they had been separated by a referee. thanking god is one thing. doing it on your knees right over some guy you just beat, thats something else.

Do not comment on this if you do not read and understand this.

its always in the centre of the ring and usually over the guy who is lying there ****ed up after being beaten.

lets say its a muslim fighter who does a dozen allah akbars over an american he ktfo.

still feel the same about it?

fair enough? or just bad taste.

it looks like human sacrifice.

its not something the other guy has any choice in.

is it fair (when the other guy is forced to be part of the relationship like on saturday), or should it be stamped out of MMA.

I personally find it pretty distasteful, personal opinion though and I don't think it's a huge deal.

its stupid

IF there is a god why would you simply assume hes helping you win as if you're better than the other fighter? yeah in gods eyes your more important than him...

i think they have the right to do whatever they want, if they want to thank santa claws why stop them?

as long as they dont disrespect any1 they have the right to be as stupid as they want

lmao theres fighters shooting others when they have been KOED, theres others digging graves, this is simply thanking god, I dont know whats wrong with that? or perhaps praying altogether shouldnt be allowed in the cage cuz then it makes it unfair for the other guy LOL

They never credit god when they lose though, do they? Funny that.

Dude's thanking his God in his way. It's no different than a white Catholic falling to his knees, putting his hands together in prayer after a victory, and thanking the 'Lord' above. I'm a Buddhist in training, so if I want to celebrate by crossing my legs, placing my hands together, and levitating, what harm is it causing to anyone else? Prayer is prayer, and thanks is thanks, no matter which way you slice it.
