what a way to start off your UFC career..fighters are humans who have heart too.

He lives in Hollywood, what do you expect. Freaks.

“Im “Mr. NC-17″ I eat Meat, and I am in great shape. Tasting meat makes me happy, I love to sit back and drink Cow’s blood and laugh.”

Seriously, stuff like this is so stupid. Its all my idea imposed on your idea.

(PS I was kidding when I said I drank Cow’s blood. That is just odd.)

Mac is the Man.

If God didn’t want us to eat animals, then he wouldn’t have made them out of meat.

people are gonna hate on him for this, which is unfortunate…i say good for him for standing up for his beliefs. danzig has it goin’ on…he’s won TUF and is the UFC, his girlfriend is hot, and he’s a healthy vegan.

Good for Danzig, great for me. The less meat he eats, the more for myself.

Mother, tell your carnivores not to walk my way!

If PETA had it their way, we’d all be fucked. The earth’s population cannot be supported on vegetation alone. I don’t care if you don’t eat meat, but don’t friggin tell me not eat meat. Now, excuse me while I finish my pork chop.

Will someone tell that retard what the gloves and fench liners are made of plz

*Fence

Man his girlfriend is HOT

Right, back to my mixed grill!

Actually more people could be supported off of vegetation as opposed to meat but who would want that anyway?

This is true it needs to be porportioned, I love beef, ham, fish, shrimp, chicken, … God so much meat, this guy needs to grow up, What the hell does he eat for protien? SOY?! that blows, everyone knows soy sucks. I am not his fan anymore, not that I was to begin with.

vegan power!

I dont suppose PETA told him that they euthanize over 50% of the animals they ’save’.

i wonder if hes likes some vegans that dont wear leather or any other material made of animal… and if thats the case aren’t gloves made of leather and what about the championship belt.. if he ever gets a chance to fight for it will he request a pleather belt?

It always humours me how people get offended by vegetarian’s advocating their lifestyle. Why do meateaters get so bothered by it? If I said “Spaghetti is so good and it’s a great thing to do. Do yourself a favour and eat some spaghetti” people who don’t like spaghetti wouldn’t get all up in arms.

man. I hope you’re joking. It takes more veggies to raise an animal than it’d take if we just ate them, instead of the animal. That said, I’m gonna go eat a bucket of chicken.

That’s simply not true…it takes 20 times the land area to feed servings of meat than it does to feed servings of vegetarian food. In case anyone is confused, you have to raise crops to feed the animal…if you used that crop land to directly feed people, 20 times the amount of people could eat.

Disclaimer: Yes, I am a vegetarian and have been for over 12 years. I won’t push my beliefs unless asked, but the logical/eco-friendly/humane diet is certainly a vegan one. Whether you choose your palette over compassion, that’s up to you.

P.E.T.A. - People Eating Tasty Animals

I’m not against Danzig being a vegetarian, but that ad is just gay.

I’m Mac Danzig, and I like my food to taste the same on the way out as it does on the way in.

I see the Vegan point of view…breeding animals for product/profit, animal suffering, etc., however the look and feel of leather and fine furs simply justifies all those anal electrocutions IMO.

When I drop a ribeye on the grill, the furthest thing from my mind is how cattle are bred, raised, killed, etc or how it may or may not have suffered. I’m past all that. This animal has fulfilled it’s destiny, it’s purpose. If you need a moment of silence to commemorate this animal’s sacrifice, be my guest, but make it quick…I like mine rare.

True… Meat eaters love to get angry at vegans, it’s weird. I eat meat…and alot of it. But I also think it’s cool when people don’t.. it takes serious discipline… I know, I’ve tried…think I lasted a week.

ahahah i love my meat i hope gsp kicks his ass

maybe mac should try a “big mac.” maybe then he won’t be so grumpy all the time. although he did whip tommy pretty bad. maybe i should eat more soy!

I don’t eat fruit because i feel that i don’t wanna contribute or condone stealing from trees.

No wonder he was so miserable on the show. The poor bastard was starving.

If I was the UFC I won’t be too happy with the UFC logo on the PETA poster. This is much to controversial of a topic to be associated with. I would probably send them a cease and desist order. Unless they got permission?

what a geek

the article calls him a champion. he is not a champion. he only won tuf 6. he shouldent have even been on the show. the show is meant for amateurs. if he wants to express his silly(imo) opinion, that is fine with me, but I’ll just ignore his views. He is one helluva fighter though. I can’t wait till he fights at lightweight.

I have always found it funny how upset people get over the whole Vegan vs meat eater debate. How simplistic is this? This is seriously an issue, and something that people choose to make fun of?

Its just food, who cares what and how he eats. Should I start razzing people for the type of toothpaste they use? “Oh look its one of the non-flouride toothpaste users, what a freak”

I’m glad Mac is doing this, he has something that he is passionate for, and its something that helps others. More people need to stand up for what they believe in, even if you think its dumb.

And regardless of what people say, a meatless diet is a healthier one. I mean if god wanted us to eat meat, wouldn’t he make animals pre-cooked? Then we wouldn’t have to work so hard to eat them. I haven’t eaten meat since I was 7 or so. I have little body fat, never had pimples, zero health problems. Sure it might not be the vegan lifestyle, but there is no way I can go back in time to test otherwise.

I hate PETA

i bet his friends hate him.

Of course they don’t mention the 10 pounds of vitamin suppliments that he has to take because of all the vitamin deficiencies that he would have from being a vegetarian without the suppliments.

Actually….Eating veggies is like buying wholesale, you skip the middle man. It takes less “stuff” to grow a plant than it does a cow. Eating a Vegan or Vegetarian diet is better for the environment.

And EdenMachine, if you eat right, as a Vegan or Vegetarian, you’d need no more supplements than a meat eater. Maybe less. Really, ask Sean Sherk.

Why does everyone think expressing an opinion is the same as pushing it on other people? If he were trying to push his beliefs on others, don’t you’d think he would have been trying to convert the rest of the house on TUF instead of bitching at them for eating his hummus? He has an opinion about how people ought to conduct themselves, and he’s saying so. It’s not like he’s coming to your house & slapping the steak out of your mouth.

Interesting that people don’t get so offended when Carl Lewis says the best diet when you’re in training is a vegan one–because he doesn’t talk about the ethical issues at all. Really, people, you don’t need to be so threatened by someone who disagrees with you about a moral issue.

Also, a few quick factual things:

-Mac Danzig’s not a UFC champion, but he was the KoTC lightweight champion.

-If you can feed the world on meat, you can feed the world on a vegetarian diet. It’s a way more efficient way of producing useful nutrients. Think about it: to get that cow/chicken/pig up to slaughter size, you’ve got to feed it vegetable matter (usually grain); some of the nutrients/energy in the animals’ feed gets wasted–that is, not turned into nutrients/energy in the meat–because it’s used up keeping the animal alive & moving while it grows. All that grain going into the animals could go straight into people instead. Cut out the middlecow.

-How many fighters in training DON’T eat lots of vitamin supplements? The only vitamin you can’t get from a balanced vegan diet is B12, and you can get plant sourced supplements–which you have to take about once a month. That said, B12 deficiency is something you definitely don’t want to mess with–causes nasty brain damage & stuff. But I think there are some people here who can tell you about that first-hand.

Wow. I fucking hate Danzig. Now I really hate him. I’m going to skin him and grill his body to feed to my dog. Fucking arrogant bastard. I hope his first fight his opponent bites his heart out.

LOL give me a break.

I dont get the traffic whizzing by in the background. What does that have to do with anything?

its not the traffic that is so fast, its him. kind of like the Flash

I know being a fighter is a hard lifestyle. Can’t imagine being a vegan is gonna make it any easier.

I once got run by a bull when i was riding a dirt bike.
Man did that hurt. Haven’t had the same love for cows since really and i think steaks actually taste better because of this experience.

Props to Mac for making the sacrifice to support his personal beliefs. Agree or Disagree… thats character.

maybe he’s right, but i dont lie the fact that the way he’s trying to say, it sounds like to me like this

(I Only Eat Vegetable & I Dont Eat Meat,So All Meat Eaters Outhere Are Bad Because It Is Animal & You Must Also Bcome Vegetarian)

man he cant blame all people,we’re all grown eating meat, our our paternt teach us though, so if this his opinion fine, but keep it to his self

Thats actually a myth. Vegetarians are at risk of losing out on Vitamins like b12, vitamin d, calcium, magnesium and potassium.

But you can get calcium in almonds/almond milk, spinach, baked beans and broccoli. Magnesium and Potassium are in all sorts of nuts, veggies and grains. The only tough ones are Vitamin D and B12, but you can buy a fortified cereal with these added. So instead of your Fruit Loops or Apple Jacks, I eat a flake cereal with added D and b12.

The only vitamin I take is one tablet of vitamin c daily.

who cares about mac. what a fizag!!!!!! I bet he would eat a meat shank.

Ignorant. Humans are NOT designed to eat meat. Every single meat eating animal on the planet has a short intestinal tract that allows them to get rid of things they eat quickly and maximize the crude proteins that meat has. Humans intestines are too long for this and a heavy diet of meat eating has been proven to increase the odds of colon cancer. This is fact. Some will argue that we were born with “canine teeth” to tear flesh. This is not fact. Biologists have established that animals who share physical characteristics also share a common diet. We have flat molars to crush and grind plant matter. Carnivores do not have this physical characteristic. Our stomachs lack the acidity that carnivores have, allowing them to digest meat and kill the bacteria present that would make us sick. Humans get sick when we eat uncooked meat because of the bacteria. That is why we cook it. Comparing our anatomies clearly illustrates the fact that the human body is built to run on a vegetarian diet. Humans have absolutely none of the distinguishing anatomical characteristics that either carnivores or even natural omnivores have. This is fact. Meat does not give you essential proteins that you cant get elsewhere and it has been proven that you do not have to take supplements to avoid vitamin deficiencies. The most healthy and longest living peoples in the world eat a diet with zero or minimal red meat. Americans are the most unhealthy people in the world and Diet is a huge factor in this. Educate yourselves before attacking someone for not eating the same things you do. It’s just food and if someone doesn’t like meat or animal suffering they shouldn’t get attacked for saying so. If you don’t kill it yourself, you don’t know what kind of hormones they put in your food. Chickens do not naturally have 3in thick breasts. Cows do not naturally produce milk in the quantities they genetically engineer them to. This is fact. Flame Away….

As someone who was raised on barbeque, I tell you that one of the most painful things to for me to do was to turn my back on a good steak. No, I don’t eat meat anymore. Yes, I do consume dairy products and eggs, but I’m trying to give that up. Yes, I have leather belts, a coat etc, but I’ll never buy another leather item again. Contrary to any myth, I don’t have any vitamin deficiencies, and I’d love to know what established long term studies are being used as evidence to say that a vegetarian needs “pounds of vitamin suppliments that he has to take because of all the vitamin deficiencies that he would have from being a vegetarian without the suppliments.”

I will not respond to any puerile attempt at humor trying to prove that you’re a meat-eating alpha male when you’re really the bottom of the pecking order. If you want to discuss this in a rational intelligent manner, I’d be happy to correspond with you.

It takes a lot of balls for Mac Danzig to stand up for what he believes in, especially when ignorant assholes are very quick to take the piss out of him without doing their homework first.

Coming from the south, where big family meals are a custom deal and living off the farm is a big deal too, i cant understand not being able to eat meat. I am also a big hunter and i have a friend who condones hunting but wont eat meat. It just doesnt make sence

Kinda like a fighter who doesnt eat meat… sooo he believes in mindless violence for sport but not meat

just doesnt make sense

for every animal he doesn’t eat, i will eat 3. That is my new years resolution…

Mac Danzig please do me a kind favor and SHUT THE F###K UP

i am High school wrestler and there is no way i would be in as good a shape as i am without natural protein

Contributing to animal pain by eating them… consuming their bad ‘karma?’ But yet acting like an arrogant asshole is cool? Caring about animal feelings is more important then caring about human feelings?

seriously, where is the hostility coming from? No one who is vegan has any power to MAKE you a vegan…it’s like guys who are against gay rights because they fear this mythical ‘gay agenda’…how is this going to come to pass????

Respect those who have the willpower to go meat free. I was once the guy mocking the vegetarians, but the only thing that comes close to a night/day feeling of difference I’ve ever experienced from being meat free was becoming an atheist. Both events lifted a veil from me…one was a physical burden and the other a mental burden.

What about the inuits in alaska and canada? they eat about 95% meat with small amounts of Grain? they have been doing that for the past 10000 years. They still excist, In fact I have been reading that Plants Besides Grain, are actually completely irrelevant. Most are empty calories anyways. One Man has lived for the past ten years on nothing but meat and grain guess what? He went to the doctor worried and they cleared him saying he wasn’t at risk for anything.

I can understand one of the basic problems (i.e. hostility towards vegetarians & vegans) because some of the most vocal proponents of vegan and vegetarian life have been pretty damned confrontational. “All vegetarians are loony because of nutters like PETA” is an insulting and inherently flawed argument, just as “All meat eaters are knuckle-dragging semi-evolved troglodytes.” The logic behind those arguments is seductively easy, but inherently bullshit.

I am a vegetarian aspiring to be vegan because of the environmental impact, because of factory farming, and because of the completely unnecessary burden meat places on the digestive system as well as the overwhelming presence of cruelty to animals.

I respect PETA for the work they’re doing, but I think that the better part of their tactics leave much to be desired. I also have serious problems with their ringing endorsement of Sen. Robert Byrd. But is that supposed to mean that I don’t respect Moby, Maggie Q, or Mac Danzig because they’ve worked with PETA? I respect them as much as I respect any person who says no to factory farming and is willing to kill their own meal and use as much of their kill as possible like most hunters I know.

Wow, this is all over the place. Here are some highlights:

“What the hell does he eat for protien? SOY?! that blows, everyone knows soy sucks.”

–I guess this guy thinks he can speak for everyone.

“i am High school wrestler and there is no way i would be in as good a shape as i am without natural protein”

–WOW! A high school wrestler! Guess what, you don’t have the education (or wisdom) to really speak about dietary needs. You said it yourself, you’re in high school. Leave the nutritional stuff to people who are really educated about it…like doctors.

“Kinda like a fighter who doesnt eat meat… sooo he believes in mindless violence for sport but not meat”

–Actually, competitive MMA is a test of reflexes, training , and strength in a controlled environment with rules…blah, blah, blah…..you’re reading a blog on MMAmania.com, do you really think this is mindless violence?

“i have a friend who condones hunting but wont eat meat. It just doesnt make sence”

– Yeah, and that one friend is a spokesperson for all vegans/vegatarians. Um Yeah. Your friend is entitled to think whatever he wants but don’t pretend he speaks for everyone else. (Oh, and its spelled:sense)

“The earth’s population cannot be supported on vegetation alone.”

–Thats hilarious. Complete conjecture. Actually according to the Dept of Agriculture, we could feed the world several times over with just the vegetation from the US. World hunger has to do with getting the food to people, not a food shortage.

“man he cant blame all people,we’re all grown eating meat, our our paternt teach us though, so if this his opinion fine, but keep it to his self’

–Why should he keep it to himself. He found a healthy lifestyle because someone turned him onto being a vegan. It’s the American way to speak freely.

And my favorite:
“Caring about animal feelings is more important then caring about human feelings?”
– Who said anything about that? If you are crying because someone suggests a healthy lifestyle, you have problems. Its not about choosing humans over animals or vice versa. Its about preventing animals from suffering needlessly. Period.

BTW, nobody but nobody, thinks you are tough because you eat meat. You bought it at the store or shot it from yards away with a firearm (if you hunted it yourself). I have to ask, why are so many of you so pent up about someone suggesting a vegetarian lifestyle? When someone says “fast food is bad for you”, nobody postured up and said how awesome the fast food diet is the way meat eaters do when someone states facts that a vegan diet is healthier? Same thing. I know, I know, you ate meat all your life and you’re okay right? Its like putting bad gas in your car, it’ll still run, just for a shorter life span. Bottom line, it is healthier you just cant seem to wrap you lifestyle around it. Maybe because you might think vegans are bleeding heart liberals or something. I dont know. Facts is: it a healthy life style. Period.

Yeah, you don’t get NATURAL protein from; Beans, bread, peanut butter, nuts, vegetables, potato,seeds, or anything grown from the earth. BEWARE THE UNNATURAL PROTEINS! Hilarious Comment; I can’t wait for another.

Most vegans actually, many of the ones that I know don’t try to push they way they live on anyone. What people leave out of the equation is how hard meat-eaters fight the idea and how they verbally bash what in essence is just a way of eating.

So what are we supposed to do then when called freaks, or idiots or ignorant assumptions are made like “lack of protein”, “there isn’t enough vegetables to feed the world” etc etc. We do the same thing every MMA fan here does when we are approached with people who have no know are not knowledgeable on the subject. We share information. The difference is, meat eaters think we are trying to convert them. Its not a cult, who cares if you join or not. Truth is it leaves more vegan women for us, and trust me most of them are as fit as Mac Danzig’s woman is.

Speaking of protein, I just had a bowl of pasta that had 22 grams of carbs, and 23 grams of protein for one serving. You don’t “need” meat.

Regarding the question “where is the hostility coming from”:

Read the poster. Apparently if you eat meat you are contributing to suffering. That’s called an accusation. It may be true. It may be false. But that it’s an accusation is the proper way to characterize the statement. People don’t like having accusations hurled at them. ‘If you eat meat you’re hurting the planet’ is a fairly strong thing to say.

It needs to be backed up with facts in order to gain any purchase. Because frankly, eating meat ISN’T like being homophobic. Disrespecting people is kind of the point of being homophobic. Disrespecting the planet is not the point of eating meat.

And so I will contribute that one has to talk in terms of calories per acre and at that point it varies by crop. I’ve never seen anybody do a complete acre by acre nutrient by nutrient analysis - only crop by crop analysis. However, broccoli has about 3x the cpa as pork and oats more like 25 the cpa I believe. You see there’s a lot of variance. So we’d have to see what fruits and veggie combinations could be used and in what rotations to provide all nutrients people need and then do a calculation based on that. And since I’ve read PETA’s literature before, I’d have to see the actual study, not a summary, and it can’t be sponsored by PETA because I will suspect the data.

Even given a vegan-friendly result, I would continue to eat meat and instead of going vegan try to support scientists trying to develop synthetic meat so that synthetic meat has the proper texture and flavor before taking up acres with mean problem out-paces the much more serious global food distribution problem.

Hi I’m a 8 time Muay Thai champ and I eat meat a lot actually and I’m always in the best shape, humans are design to eat meat and veggies I’m against fighters who use “Fast and Furious Back drops” Peta are a bunch of pet loving freaks they don’t judge tigers from eating meat or any other animals so don’t judge us we are all animals if you think about it, so stop with the BAKA campaigns
