[650lb Sumo]

It seems to have been several years since a thread on this was updated, so please post examples of fighters recieving instant karma for arrogance, vanity or disrespect. I'll start:

Conor McGregor on Dustin Poirier III: 'He's a dead body that's getting took out on a stretcher'​

Israel Adesanya a few years ago about Alex Pereira "at the end of the day no one knows who the fuck he is, he's gonna be at some pub, talking some shit about i beat that guy one time trying to get his dick sucked from a crack whore or some shit"

Bisping talk so much shit to Hendo…big mistake… big fucking mistake

I still think the wrong guy won there. Hendo talked so much more shit. Bisping can just come off as very unlikable at times.

Hendo has always been given a completely undeserved pass from MMA fans (and judges).

Again, literally the opposite of trash talking, when in his pre-fight interviews he said he hopes The Chris wins because "I tired, man"

Oh and also, add to that The Chris being the worst sport ever, acting like Andy was his lifelong nemesis

Oh and also, after The Chris was a douche about the whole thing.....

TS doesn't say trash talking only, but also i.e. showboating, which Anderson definitely did during the fight. It fits perfectly in this thread.

What do you mean “Again”?

The topic title included showboating, not just trash talk. AS showboated seconds prior to getting knocked out. So I think this fits perfectly in this thread.

Edit:
Just saw that @loisestrad already said what I wanted to add. I fully agree with loisestrad.
