The laughs and perils of MMA blogging

By Eric Kamander Subscribe to Articles by Eric Kamander

(to be taken lightly)

If you leave a comment in one of my blog posts and I notice in your profile that you have your own MMA blog, do you think there’s anything wrong with me asking if you want to publish content on my blog?

Well this guy does. After I asked his girl friend if she was interested in writing at MMA Ratings check out some of the comments I received out of the blue:

Eric, I disagree with everything you stated. By the way do you know when you state something, u put your foot into your mouth. Every blog or tweet you post are some other blog and not yours. Sorry, but do you have any experience with mma or boxing. You solicit people like u did my girl to blog for you to make money for yourself.

This was after I mentioned that Koscheck/Johnson was a fine candidate for Fight of the Night, that Tito had about as much to offer as Baroni, that Volkman looked like a total amateur, that Saunders could deserve Knockout of the Night, that Tito looked okay in the first and by the 2nd it was clear that he had nothing to offer standing, that Tito has a propensity to make excuses after every loss and that doing so it destroys his credibility. Yeah so, I have opinions. 😀

Then he follows up with some private messages that take the cake.

We are creating a complete web site/homepage to inform everyone via primary sources thru my contacts. We do not intend to utilize other blogs that are rumor and secondary sources which inform the public something that is not true. If u have a problem with me tell it to me. If not, quite soliciting my giirl. Do I make myself clear or are you a mamaluke. We live together in North Providence, RI. Your sound like a mama’s boy going to my girl Cat instead me. Oh! that’s right you want to have blogers so you get sponsors to make money. Can I make this any clearer to youwanna be tough guy.

You don’t know anything about mma, boxing nor fighting. I do. If you have a problem with that, you will get over it clown. Oh! I did you happen to check my profile, i know u did. So get lost clown.Feel free to look again at my profile and my pics again. I am not blocking you so you can take a peek about me. I also went to NYU and a RPT plus a personal trainer.
Take care, I don’t care, lol

I got a laugh out of this. I hope you did as well.

(I hope he doesn’t come after me.)
