Will never understand the UFC hype either. Two half naked blokes cuddling each other until one taps his hand on the floor. Yeah it has some good knockouts but so does Dartford High Street on a saturday night. I always feel like people wanna like it just to sound hard.

Of course, it's also repetitive, frustrating, futile, "bumpy", etc.
Cycling. Always cycling. Hate it. Then rugby (all forms).
My team at work was swallowed up into the oxymoronical 'Content and Cycling' department, and our boss doesn't give two shits about content. On our away day this week, we had to get a talk by one of Dave Brailsford's mates and watch the TDF for an hour. I was furious. "Oh you are in the movies editorial team are you? Let me tell you about the cobblestones of southern France..."
No, really, don't. I stopped listening three hours ago and have been enjoying a daydream about saving this pub from a terrorist attack.
The cobblestones are in Northern France. It makes the cycling more interesting, honest.

There are some really awful ones here. Wish I'd thought of synchronised swimming, gridiron, dressage and wrestling (the shit showbiz fake stuff anyway - I suspect that real wrestling is ok even if it is in the rules that you have to carry a hanky).
If you mean as spectator sport for watching live then I would say cycling.
You stand by the side of the road for a couple of hours, then a bunch of cyclist go past you for a minute or two then you go home to see who won on the telly.
1. Formula 1 - I could happily nominate this 5 times. Absolutely bores me to tears 2. American football - glorified rugby 3. Baseball - glorified rounders 4. Golf (except Ryder Cup) 5. Fishing - I can't believe they actually televise it!
Cricket - unless having a drink while watching Rugby - no skill whatsoever unless you are a lard arse or can run fast F1 - real petrol heads who attend most forms of motor racing detest it Tour de France - even with the gear they're on its dull Baseball

Will never understand the UFC boxing hype either. Two half naked blokes cuddling each other until one taps his hand on the floor. Yeah it has some good knockouts but so does Dartford High Street on a saturday night. I always feel like people wanna like it just to sound hard.
That makes more sense now. I disagree in both instances.
Swimming, it's like running but a lot slower. Baseball, even watching it in a Japanese crowd didn't make it exciting. American football, nothing happens! Basketball, giants taking it in terms to score. F1, more about the car than the driver.
I do think people are getting boring mixed up with not liking a sport.

Why would anyone like a sport that they thought was boring?

I must admit I've only got into UFC over the past couple of years but it is definitely not boring. I probably should add as a whole, sure there can be some dull matches but just like in any sport. The event at the weekend, UFC 189, was without doubt the best I've seen, brilliant matches all with some unbelievable finishes. I'd urge anyone who thinks it's dull to watch that on replay.

There's sports I don't like, like limited over cricket and Ice Hockey but are they boring? Hardly.
