MMA was always ripe for rightwing politics, much more than boxing. Boxing is still mostly made up of Blacks and Mexicans from impoverished backgrounds. MMA attracts a lot of white boys from middle class backgrounds.
This just isn’t true. The fans, yes, but the fighters come from all over. There are fucktons of Russian, Dagestan, chechen, Thai, Brazilian, and African fighters. And that’s just in the ufc. This doesn’t count Russian, EU, and Southeast Asian promotions
The Brazilian MMA fighters are all the worst type of chuds and usually come from a middle class or richer background (if they even start as a kid, those Aldo gyms are filled to the brim with adults). Poor kids tend to practice tae-kwon-do or Jiu-Jitsu here.

Oh for sure, yeah the sport definitely has a worldwide chud vibe, I was just speaking on “rich white kid” kinda deal.
