What's the easiest way to tell if someone is a casual fan?

[updowniri]

"Shaolin Monks and Navy Seals beat UFC fighters in hand to hand if there are no rules"

 

[Gambit MMA]

Casuals usually only are interested in knockouts.

They don't follow the fight game so they don't know the results of 95% of the fights. They'll tell you they saw jon jones knockout his last opponent when jones has been coasting for a while now. Or they heard about khabib knocking out his last opponent

Favorite fighter is Conor

Hurrrdurr when is Conor coming back?

 

[vmx12]

Ken shamrock is a fan of Conor guess he a casual too.

With a name like Shamrock, no surprise he's nut-huggin' the leprechaun.

 

[neonbelly***]

I'm a casual and proud of it tbh.

 

[Aluminati]

When they bring up non-verifiable credentials, tell stories about how awesome they are, or in general feel the need to prove something.

 

[the ambush]

When they insist that GSP is the GOAT.

 

[Substance Abuse]

If they make this facial expression

Really underrated post right here, lol.

 

[puppybird]

They are normal

 

[Bend NvR Break]

When they try and use the UFC p4p rankings systems as legitimate proof that fighter A is better than fighter B

 

[CptJacuzzi]

People only call others "casuals" on the internet, most the time im ecstatic if someone is into MMA as much as me. I hardly run into people that don't think UFC is "stupid" or "barbaric".

 

[Johnny_Knuckles]

When they say something that I disagree with

 

[SteveColdStone]

I’ll compile a list of all the casual posters and put them in my sig

 

[bubbleboyjones]

Lol! You literally came in right after.

To be fair I was attending UFC events live back in '03 but my join date makes me a filthy casual.

 

[drbolony]

They use a lot of MMA buzzwords and Roganisms.

 

[ticho123]

They say stuff like "Dude the Newton vs Hughes fight should've been called a draw, Hughes was out too bro" like yeah sure but after the ref had stopped the fight you could see Hughes recovered quicker, so the result was fair. Fucking casuals man

 

[JP557CU]

Casual fans try to watch the big fights and catch the highlights, but otherwise watch <25% of UFC fights.

Guess I’m a filthy casual. Call me casual, but I don’t have any interest in watching wmma or the 15th ranked male strawweight looking like a ten year old. No thanks!

 

[Felya]

If they never heard of condomdepot.com

 

[Fioretti]

To be fair I was attending UFC events live back in '03 but my join date makes me a filthy casual.

I browsed Sherdog for a few years before I made an account. Back then it was only Sherdog and MMAWeekly. Time flies.

 

[GSP4tw]

If they thought Conor was going to beat Floyd.
