I'm more biased in Chuck's favor, mostly because he's already knocked Tito out, and it's a pretty logical reason as to why I'd think Chuck is going to win again.

Agreed, but you only need one thread, not fifty, and when there is fifty, you need fifty different legitimate reasons, not forty nine threads saying because chuck has no skill or tito blows ass and one thread on why.

biased is one thing... but do you think he's unbeatable? do you think nobody now could beat him? if so, THEN you're a nuthugger. there are fans out there that pic fighters to be "perfect" and unbeatable. hell, i love Fedor, but i'm not ignorant enough to think he can't lose for any number of reasons...
having favorite fighters, and really believing a fighter could win for legit reasons is one thing, but it's not being a nuthugger... you can spot them coming!  |

Let UFC fans be the types of fans they want to be. How does it affect you in any way? Can't you just turn the other cheek?

There are a number of threads that offer nothing in the way of insight and I have yet to see even ONE create meaninful topics, discussions etc.
