That is news to me. I believe you now, I really do.
Also, it should be noted that they’ve done polls on this and Pro Wrestling fans are actually one of the most left leaning sports fandoms. While MMA leans right.
I didn’t know that, and that pleasantly surprises me. I will take the L on this one and stop associating the two groups so much.
Here’s the poll. Turns out I was wrong about UFC fans being that much more right leaning then wrestling fans. It actually lands on the left side of the poll’s spectrum too. More rightward than WWE/wrestling but only by a bit. I also forgot the poll frames it as “democrat and republican” lol, which is annoying, but judging by /r/SquaredCircle’s views on social issues im fairly confident there are a lot of wrestling fans who are at worst radlibs.
ETA: Wait no, i misread the graph, ufc has almost no lean whatsoever.
This isn’t the first time I’ve seen this poll, but every time I do I want to dismiss the results because there’s no way any more than a single digit number described themselves as a fan of Grand-Am.

My head’s spinning by now. I’ll just not make the association in the future and save myself a toxic fan getting weird on me again that way.
