Brett Rogers! Yes! Any of the woman beating ****s that step into the ring. I'd take great pleasure in seeing them get injured.
And Tito Ortiz. Just cause.

I respect the fighters too much, just for how hard the sport is, to want to see that. I do agree about Dana's face if Carmouche knocks out Rousey.

This is how I feel. They are exciting to see, but I wouldn't really wish it on any of them in particular.

Would you guys be more comfortable with a beating like JDS just took? Seems like a flash KO would have less long term damage. Either way I don't have a problem with wishing for fighters to get knocked out. Most people enjoy knockouts, the fighters love when they get knockouts. They step into the ring knowing they could get knocked out. I'm not wishing permanent damage on anyone or even an injury. They can wake up seconds later and go home and have a lovely meal with the family if they want.

Well put. I think theres a difference between wishing someone would, just once, get KO'd and wishing someone would get prolonged brain damage.

It's not a matter of which is worse for me. I just don't like to wish bad things like that for people. I root for the fighters I like obviously, but I don't want anything bad for the person they are against.

Do you ever root for your fighter to win by KO or do you root for them to win by sub where the fighter taps out without a damaged limb or going to sleep or a decision?

Eh I don't really care how they win as long as they pull it off. Sub, TKO, KO, decision. It's whatever really. Like I said, they are exciting to see and it's not like I get all sad or weird about when it happens. It's part of the sport, I just don't go out and say I hope this guy gets KO'd.
