joe rogan rips affliction t-shirt guy. Follow up for BJJ too expensive.

poste and read through the "BJJ is too expensive" thread, and we were all talkin about the douchebag wannabe's that wear affliction, XC, etc. and I automaticaly thought of this.

Joe Rogan rips on a guy wearing an affliction t-shirt.
the sad part is, Everything joe says is 100% the truth. If joe had a forum where yo can ask him to make a vieo to give his thoughts on certain subjects, I would really like to ask his views about the posers and wannabe's you see at bars and clubs that have no fighting experience what so ever and dont know anything about what the ground game is.

ENJOY! ^.^http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qLMooHY12Y

yep...go to hooters or your average sports bar and those guys are all around talking shit and never train. However, there all a lot of us that show up with our MA Schools t-shirts too.

I remember when I was a kid dudes would mack to chicks saying they were musicians and record producers...then that turned to dot-commers and I.T. guys...now it's everyone is a MMA fighter. I love hearing dudes mack to chicks saying "I train UFC!"

I just love Joe; I wish he'd make a stop through here with Joey Diaz. There are some other great vids out there of Joe dealing with hecklers. I fucking HATE hecklers and so to see Joe just DEMOLISH some of them... priceless. As good as this one is, I think his best line to a heckler ever is still: "Bitch, I'll wrap my dick around your neck and start you up like a fuckin' lawnmower." I easily watched that ten times in a row and laughed until I couldn't breathe.

When people wore TapOut in 97-98,you would say,"Where do you train?" An instant bond was formed.Those days are long gone!

I think it's kind of ironic because I used to work out with this huge Mexican dude, who we nicknamed Mighty Mouse.

For those that haven't seen it these two actually had a reunion on local radio show!!

Check it out

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbsbJ...eature=related

Also in this next video the BJJ guy gives his thoughts on the fight. My speakers are abit messed up so it's hard to hear him properly but I think he said he was drunk when he tackled Cheeseburger Josh and didn't do more damage because he didn't feel the situation called for it. I think thats what he said anyway.

I think it's fine that people want to be fans and pretend fighters. These people finance the sport that we all love.

that may be true...but 1) most people won't tap in a street fight because......well...it's a street fight and 2) in order to tap you'd have to be properly submitted. judging from the video i posted i don't think the guy on top applied enough leverage or pressure correctly in that short time he slipped the americana in to have it do anything where cheeseburger josh was in trouble.

Guys if only real fighters and people who train would wear Tapout, afflicition, sinister t-shirts, first of all those companies would be out of business, Chuck Liddlell would be making $20,000 at the most per fight and Joe Rogan would be unemployed or working for Dana for minumum wage. T shirt friggin business saved the sport you love, so you might want to slow down and thank the people who spend $50 odd bucks on one of those weird t-shirts to support the cause, or represent that they enjoy the sport.

None of you are basketball players but I guarantee all of you own an Adidas T-shirt, I am sure all of you wore Nike tennis shoes with jeans or something going to school or grocery store. Does it make sense someone coming up to you and saying, dude you are a fake, you dont even play basketball but look you are wearing those butt-ugly shoes to the grocery store..... Come on, look at both sides of the coin before you criticize.
For Joe Rogan, he is a funny dude and it's his job to make the most out of every little thing he gets his hands on, but as I said earlier, his paycheck from the UFC depends on that dude that he is ripping who went and bought that afflicition t-shirt.

Pretty much a reach for a comparison. Nike has been making shoes and athletic gear for all sports and all levels of athlete for a very long time. Pretty sure its not the ugly assed shirts that get folks worked up, but the attitude that tends to be in them. I dont mind any sort of shirt, its when the same guy wearing said shirt starts talking about his upcoming fights, his jits, his "stand up" and how much he tranes UFC I sort of get a bit tired of it.

Like Raider funk said, used to be different lies, The ones I always remembered were guys who would say they were ex-spec ops (esp SEALS) when it was making its hollywood rounds. Now its a MMA (UFC) fighter.

I've never heard of anyone talking about their upcoming fights, their jits, or their standup and not have any sort of real training. Then again, I live in a state where everyone trains for some reason.

I think what's going on here is that people and fans who have been wearing TapouT the past couple of years have been negatively associated with being tough guys outside the ring. I've been to some UFCs and it seems like when there was a fight in the crowd it was a couple of guys wearing those shirts. Being that TapouT supports ultimate fighting and MMA, the people that generally wear them are a different genre of people then those that just play/support basketball and other sports. So basically, even though most people are just wearing it to show their support of the sport of mma, it is the negative stereotype why people think there is a bit of irony when things like the cheeseburger josh incident happens.

Listen more, its everywhere, but varies to degrees. Dont get me wrong some of the loudest ones are the guys who train their BJJ once/week, talk non stop about MMA, and wear any and all MMA related gear. The guy is IMO still a pain, though he does train, no one wants to hear it non stop. But what state by chance?

Also how many amatuer/grass roots level fights do you go to? The crowds tend to be full of these guys.

I understand but those dudes will talk like that even if they were wearing pijamas. The buttheadness comes from within them :)

Thats exactly what I said. I do think its nice that the shirts aid greatly in spotting one from a distance though (I wouldnt call it a sure thing, but IME, its a 50-50 shot).

I live in Hawaii. I don't mind guys that train (even once a week because not everyone can train full time) mouthing off because it all gets dealt with the second they step onto the mat.

I've went to one local event and it was the most annoying thing ever because of the lack of respect for any sort of grappling. However, I just think most people are stupid in general, so I don't really categorize them into an "mma" crowd.

There should be a rule the only fight gear that should be worn, is when your repping your school.
