I think the important thing here is Havoc using an Anime reference... he gets some good points for that (from me anyway) It was the cleanest thing I could find to get my point across. I didn't want to be censored. Now I could put my foot in my mouth right here... and I’m going down faster than the Titanic so what the hell why fight it. (LOL). Why did you have to be so careful? Is it because anime comes from a culture where more than half of the animes you could used would be unacceptable and a banned offense? (I’m a anime fan I’d know LOL). (it's a joke). Different people of different background, cultures, etc. speak in different ways. Many people here have a southern drawl. People from other countries have accents. If there are black people that speak in a different manner than you, I don't know why it would offend you so much. So you concede the fact there are hicks in all races? So what I'm discriminating against doesn't fall on racial lines. So in other words shut up. And no it’s not because of a draw. I don’t want to punch someone out because one person says soda.. And one person says pop. Or one person says fries and another person says chips. Fu shizo is not a real word. Sha na na is not a real name.

I was making a joke about hentai. I assumed you'd pick up on that.
We are so far of topic it's not even funny (LOL).
Great. *Another* racist here who doesn't play the game? How soon before we get an MMA bootleg of a goat from this clown?
Didn't you get banned back in the day? Aren't you the reason why we can't have guest accounts anymore?
Wow... that's disturbing. Should shut my mouth, now he's putting up pedo porn.
The girl I'm currently going out with here in Las Vegas is Mexican. She works on The Strip and follows UFC a little (especially when they have an upcoming card here) but she knows much more about it than just Tito Ortiz.
Didn't I say half the people? Look buddy.. I'm half MEXICAN! My father is Mexican. I can't hate them.. there my people. Christ you people love to argue.

I don't participate in many MMA conversations but I felt the need to weigh in on a couple things that Habbalah said about Rampage Jackson, and well, race.
1) Rampage Jackson is promoting himself. He has found a gimmick that has gotten him over with the general public and he is getting paid off of it.
You're rant about MMA on Ebonics and Black folks looking for "cheddah" (try and keep up, by the way: it's all about stacking paper and having floodwaters in your pockets these days) was completely uncalled for.
In sports such as MMA and boxing, self-promotion and the ability to connect are as important as actual talent. Don't believe me, ask Arturo Gatti, who has made a hell of a lot more money than superior fighters.
2) Your whole thing about everyone being racist sounded kind of dumb. I don't know what ethnicity you are, but bringing up your Black girlfriend doesn't make you sound any less racist. In fact, it makes her sound like a sell-out for dating someone who openly admits to having discriminatory tendencies toward people of her race.
Finally, since you apparently feel that you are entitled to talk about what the Black race needs to do to better itself, due no doubt to the fact that you date a Black chick, you should have remembered rule number one:
Keep the problems in house. It's one thing to talk about how to fix problems; it's quite another to go out and discuss those problems in front of the world and possibly giving ignorant people more ammunition to use against you.

your right.. it is... And normally i say I don't like Rampage.... and I was pressed about it.... so I responded. I should just shut up but I was being honest.

The dreaded sell out card OH NO! (LOL) Hay buddy.. I can pass for white... and guess what.. I normally lie and tell most people I'm pure white because I know most people are racist.
You know who told me to do that? My dad. The term sell out isn't going to T me off at all. It's a phrase made for stupid people who "Like to keep it real!"
I'm telling you I'm not pure white because it's in my best interests right now to say so. Guess who also told me to do that?
I mean I also get a giggle out of saying that because it makes people uncomfortable because I don't fit into there cookie cutter PC world. (thank you Duce for not getting involved in this one. I owe you a cookie lol)
I normally call Rampage a slack jawed hick from Memphis to avoid the whole racial tug of war, but it finally happened.
If I would have called elvis a slack jawed hick from Memphis (and he was) no one would said anything.

If I would have called elvis a slack jawed hick from Memphis (and he was) no one would said anything. This makes no sense. So, do you run around denying your (immediate) heritage out of fear of what some clown will think of you or do run around telling people you are mixed (or whatever the hell you are claiming to be) just to shock people? And who the hell are you associating with that get uncomfortable at the notion that one of their acquaintances may have a Black ( or whatever the hell it is your mixed with) parent? When I brought up the term sell-out, I wasn't doing so to define someone who goes to school, gets and education, makes money and talks proper. I'm using it to describe someone who thinks that the only way for a person to simultaneously be Black and accepted is to have a good education (or fronts like he does), make a lot of money (or fronts like he does) and talk proper. I'm using it to describe the type of person who is constantly remind everone around him of how much better you are than "that Black guy" that lives down the street from you who legitimately got an education, makes legitimate money, sounds intelligent without reminding people of early-Carlton Banks but also likes to listen to Lil' Wayne real loud and eats barbecue without worrying if he is reinforcing a stereotype.

Never mind, he's a halfy ashamed to be black who is racist against blacks. That would still make a great bootleg, but not as great as I thought. That's what I get for not reading the entire posts.

Oh good you were just trolling.. whew I thought for a second you were serious. never mind, back to mma. I can see you just wanted a rise out of me. he's a halfy ashamed to be black who is racist against blacks. Okay so you think i'm black. And I'm suppose to be insulted by that how? And the P.C. term is Mutt (Kidding).

And the P.C. term is Mutt (Kidding). So Joe your saying a sell out is someone who talks smack about people lower than they are? By your def isn't all of sherdog sell outs? (LOL). Really lets, let this go. Do you know the most intellegent thing I've ever heard in my life? Richard Prior once said "It takes every fiber in your life just to get throught life with out kiling a guy with all the crap going on.. and than all of sudden someone has to come along and call you a N....r. Oh great.. now I have to deal with this." (And for the record I said I was half Mexican ignore swarm) Why should I expose myself to people in a fashion that could cause me grief I don't need in my life? Maybe I simply put don't trust people. If I keep quite about what I am i don't have to hear "Oh.. your Mexican" (Polite PC white guy speak for ew). I don't have to see a big fake smile as someone pretends to be nice to me from that point on. That crap sickens me. I'd rather someone just come out and say what they want. By not admiting what I am.. I get to hear what people really think.... and not get the censored version. If anything if you want to give me a hard time it should be for the lack of faith i have in my fellow man.
