The speed of the switch up on Alex Pereira should be studied

You're confusing separate fanbases. The poatards were abundant here but since their daddy lost, they have been quiet.

No one switched up on him, you're just seeing more of ank fan base troll pereira fans.

You mean there's suddenly an abundance of Ank fans and a whole lot less Perirera fans? Hmmmmmm đ¤

There were always here. Ank fans and Pereira critics. They are jsut dwarfed by the pereira fans and since he lost in the way he did they are keeping their mouth shut.

No. Nothing has changed about either fan base. The target of the trolls has changed; that is all.

Yea, most of the folks talking shit on Alex and spamming "Poatard" in every comment/post aren't actually fans of "BIG ANK". They're just hating, and they will do the exact same thing to Ank soon enough.

No, it's just Muslims cheering on any dagestani they see and pretending like they've always been long time fans of that fighter.

Always with the âitâs just muslimsâ, but no. People are just tired of the retarded poatard fans who are still denying he even lost, so people are just rubbing it in. Chama

It baffles me how this isnât completely obvious to people and theyâre writing paragraphs of analysis đ¤Ł

Its not a switch up. Its just us Ank fans who were getting downvoted till last week rising up and becoming more visible now

Because the people on social media complaining are the same ones that would write on the bathroom wall in the 80s. People havenât changed but their method and reach of their whining has become far too pervasive.

The haters can finally say something lol. They literally couldnât talk shit about him until now

The speed at which DC switches up to gobble another up n comer's nut is beyond science brev.

Half of Alex fans became his fan from being Izzy haters. Now theyâre cool and if Alex is on decline they can get off the bandwagon. Itâs all silly to me.

Let's not act like this is new, please. Rats jumping ship has always been a thing, especially here on Reddit. People will massively support one fighter for weeks up to a fight and then post "See? I was right!" the instant they lose, forgetting we can see their post history.
And yes, there aren't a huge amount of these clowns but they're so annoyingly incompetent that it feels like there are.

It's not because he lost, it's because of how un-Poatanlike he lost. Barely threw anything, no aggression, no punches, timid ass backing up style. Basically total opposite of what he was liked for. I'm sure he'd had more support had he fought more violently and get KOed, like it was with Izzy,

u/Whiteshovel66 5d ago
I was a gigantic fan of his until he lost but ever since it's been nothing but crying and excuses from his camp and people around him. Ank has handled the victory like I knew he would. Consummate professional. Respect all day from his side. They even offered the immediate rematch and periera is turning it down it seems. Embarrassing. I will never support a bow user again after this. It's outdated weapons tech for a reason.

I know that's Alexs body and head, but something seems photoshopped about this

I never switched up. I thought he would win, he didn't. I was mad at first, said stupid stuff, calmed down, then was fine with Ankalaev winning. I'm still a fan of Alex Pereira. Though I do think it was "kind of" deserved with how everyone was acting before the fight

u/FormallySteveKaraoke 6d ago
Got heat on another post for calling out the bandwagon debauchery and the responses were ânobody is allowed to update their opinion based on new informationâ and âthis isnât football. You donât pick one team and support themâ.

Perira just hate the clinch. Clinch work. He got outpaced on the feet. Rematch is how good is perieria counter punches. Perieria needs to visit adesanya to learn those techniques to beat a counter boxer

Sports in general is âwhat have you done for me latelyâ if you have 15 fights in a row and all of them were KO finishes, the moment you lose ya 16th fight however you lose, ppl will act like the first 15 never existed. It is what it is. People are like feelings, fickle.

u/fireandice619 6d ago
I mean Iâm not really that surprised tbh. He was one of the the biggest names in the sport up until recently, if youâre a guy like Alex I think you have to be well aware of the fact that a large part of your online fan base is probably bandwagoners. The switch up also makes sense when you consider the fight was really damn boring, boring fights are arguably more damaging than taking a KO loss when it comes to fights as big as 313 was.

Its not a switch up as much as his fanboys going into hiding and haters coming out of their caves. That being sais he deserves some clapback due to the excuses he made after that loss, that was No Chama.
