When you see a one of your favorite MMA fighters make a mistake costing him a fight, do you hold a grudge against that fighter?
I don't hold a grudge, but it's hard not to start screaming at the screen when there's a minute/30 seconds left in the third round of a contentious fight when a guy who has a clear advantage on the feet or is winning the fight in general does something really stupid like pull a weak guillotine or go for a useless takedown, get reversed and end up losing a decision.
I actually completely understand what you mean.
Prime example:
Thiago Silva vs Rashad Evans.
Rashad is doing the stanky leg and Thiago decides it's time to DANCE? At that point, very late in the fight, I decided I wouldn't be bothered if Rashad won, where previously I really wanted Thiago to get the win. A grudge...well, I'll never forgive him for that ridiculous performance.
i am pissed at sokojou for gassing 7 minutes in, causing him to lose, almost every fight vs guys he has more skill than

i dont hold grudges, but sokujou does piss me off, all the skill but non of the cardio, i used to think he cut too much weight to make 205 since he didnt have any cardio issues during the superhulk tourney
I've been burned before-now I'm a strong confident woman
