Why is it such a big deal if someone is religious? A lot of athletes thank god and as long as they're not out trying to convert me I say live and let live right?

I don't think he was referring to the religious aspect. I think he was referring to the fact that McDonald stated that he has no interest in the title. Which I guess seems kinda dumb considering there are guys like him who would kill to be in his position for a UFC belt on the line and have trained their whole life just like him to have his opportunity. But i guess this is just a matter of opinion and comfortability.

The way things are going with title shots, it's probably best for the fighters not to think about it because they're going to be disappointed when they get passed over for the best trash talker or moneymaker.

Of coarse he feels that way, the belt he's fighting for is FAKE.

RENAN BARÃO: MY FIGHT CAMP
Published on Feb 12, 2013
Get an exclusive look at Renan Barão's fight camp at Nova União in Rio de Janeiro.

Still, Barão is convinced he'll keep this young powerhouse at bay, add another W to his impressive win streak, and keep the interim bantamweight title. Catch this main event battle at UFC on FUEL TV: Barão vs McDonald, Saturday, February 16, live from London, with prelims beginning at 12:30PM ET | 9:30AM, PT.

I don't mind religious fighters, but when they say stupid s--- about God wanting them to fight for a living, I can never take them seriously.

Because he sounds like a douche to me. That's my opinion, if he comes off like an awesome guy to you that's great. I don't really care if he doesn't mind about titles or if he believes in god, I do too. He just seems like douche to me

I think Pegado kicks Mayday in the head around the 3rd round and that's all she wrote folks.
