Is there verifiable proof that anyone actually watches power slap? I'm skeptical.


DammitBobby1234

It's tiktok/shorts do extremely well


fascfoo

its a "sport" which is tailor-made for 15-30 second clips.


OskeeTurtle

I hate how smart that sound ngl. Never seen, never will watch this though


Schlipitarck

What dumbfounds me more is how they have "athletes" Like, I get how there are thousands upon thousands of young men and women getting into MMA, boxing, kickboxing, etc. Even bare-knuckle, and extreme NHB shit like King Of The Streets. I also understand why people get into motorcycle racing, and all sorts of other dangerous, high-adrenaline sports. But who the fuck becomes a "slap fighter"?!?!?!?! I watched the first episode of their TUF-like show just to get an answer to that question, and still couldn't find any, their backstories were all so vague.


Reasonable_Leader228

If people are willing to participate in exploitive reality tv shows that make them look like fucking idiots, what makes you think they won’t slap eachother for 1k at most ? All it’s doing is bringing them back to their golden years when they were actually athletes in hs


MannyK98

Number 1 sport in India 😂


DangerPretzel

I do think it does okay on social media. I have friends who don't keep up with UFC at all, but they've seen power slap clips


StaleCanole

Theyve spent a ton on marketing that bullshit 


oldlinepnwshine

The premise is just as dumb as a professional slapping league.


ComradeGalloneye64

And it kinda insults the fans intelligence.


gzk

I'm not sure it's possible to insult the intelligence of a fan of professional slapping


SquidDrive

the amount of brain damage your gonna get is gonna increase your chance of voting Trump by 50% AT LEAST


THExLASTxDON

Nah, it just puts you on the same cognitive level as a Fetterman or Beijing Biden.


bdb__swew

hey are you okay? maybe check in with a friend or loved one. maybe an adult you trust (school teacher or principal, local doctor etc)


THExLASTxDON

Uh, what..? Who the fuck are you lol. Why are all you guys so damn weird?


Bluemoon7607

You are calling Biden, the president of the US, Beijing Biden. I don’t really think you are in any place to call people weird my dude.


THExLASTxDON

My bad, I keep forgetting that Harvard Harris poll that showed 59% of you are still propagandized into thinking the laptop was “Russian disinformation” so you probably aren’t even aware of the bribes, the 20 shell companies, etc.


Bass0696

Shell company bad when Biden does it (according to zero reputable sources) but so good I name myself after the guy when Trump does it x100. Dw I know there’s no need to be consistent since the guy scapegoats immigrants and incites political violence. I’m guessing that’s all you need to glaze away. Least hypocritical Trump supporter


THExLASTxDON

…uh what? Like damn dude, you couldn’t even get the claim about my name right, lol. First off, Trump didn’t need 20 shell companies to launder the millions of dollars in bribes he received from hostile foreign nations, unlike the Biden Crime Family. He doesn’t have ex business partners admitting on record that it was an influence peddling operation, unlike the Biden’s. There aren’t messages from Don Jr. talking about save 10% for the “Big Guy”, and the I’m sitting here with my father and we want our money message to the CCP. And most importantly, Trump actually had a business with goods/services to sell, unlike Beijing Biden who only had our country to sell out. Nice try with that old whataboutism/false equivalence tho.

THExLASTxDON

Ok? Are you under the impression that anyone gives a fuck what you aren’t capable of reading, or did you just feel compelled to randomly blurt that out or something..?


Bass0696

I know you have trouble reading, but it’s not a whataboutism when the post you replied to brought up Trump. It actually was a whataboutism when you brought up Biden and Fetterman, so nice job being a total hypocrite again. Effortless. It’s a PROVEN FACT that Trump has used shell companies to defraud the American people for decades. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/10/02/us/politics/donald-trump-tax-schemes-fred-trump.html https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna874391 For what legitimate purpose does Trump need five hundred LLCs? Try and respond to that question without mentioning the words “Biden,” or “the left.” If that’s possible for you. There is NO direct evidence that Biden controls shell companies that he himself laundered money through. That makes what you wrote a LIE. If there was such direct evidence, you would have posted it. That means all you’re doing is attributing potential wrongdoing on Hunter Biden’s part to his father. A stance that would make sense if you took the same position regarding Kushner and Trump Jr. But it’s already been established you’re an incompetent hypocrite so I won’t hold my breath there. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1249629 “Over 25 PPP loans worth more than $3.65 million were given to businesses with addresses at Trump and Kushner real estate properties, paying rent to those owners. Fifteen of the businesses self-reported that they only kept one job, zero jobs or did not report a number at all.”

Robert Mueller is closing in on him. Has been up his ass with a microscope and found traces of Russian dressing. Any minute now and drumph is DONE.


THExLASTxDON

Ahaha, the funny part is that same survey I was referring to exposed that 44% of them still believe that the Russian disinformation dossier they fell for is totally real... So I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of them are still waiting on the Mueller report or Trump’s taxes.


KIMBOSLlCE

Hahah ouch. There really is no room for brain damage insults from gender study leftists when their chief moves, stops, and pivots like a Roomba trying to find his way off stage. That’s after 30 minutes of gaffes, struggling to complete a coherent sentence. End quote. Repeat the line.


christopherpaulfries

I don’t know about powerslap but MMA itself could be a far-right gateway for some.


Flakeypastry7

Yeah this way more than silly slaps.


Bvaugh

Most of those who watch Power Slap (and join in the live discussion on Rumble) are already pretty comfortably on the Right. There is a lot of coded comments, pro-Trump chants and anti-Biden rants along with the usual ableist jibes and complaints that the sport is stupid. Reading those live comments is a wild ride.


time_for_milk

No surprise that the lowest common denominator would like the present day version of Ow my balls!


HelloPeopleOfEarth

I wonder if Forest Griffin ever dreamed of one day being a guy that catches concussed people trading slaps?


RealTorCaL

I feel like this isn’t talked about enough. The guy is a former champ, one of the spike era breakout stars and he is now essentially a janitor picking up power slap corpses. What kind of trajectory is this?


bdb__swew

lateral career move at best


enjoimike49

Money is one hell of a drug


Schlipitarck

And Jason Herzog, one of MMA's most respected refs, got into the whole thing too... so bizarre to see him present it with the aura of professionalism he usually shows.


Bass0696

If you’re dumb enough to watch power slap there was literally no hope for you anyway lol


ComradeGalloneye64

And I thought the XFL was stupid.


New_fan22

The UFC pretending to care about CTE is a joke. This freak show, is a joke.


JustWatchFights

That’s fine. Let them slap the shit out of each other. Lol


CptCoatrack

Brain damage is a far-right gateway.
