Jordan Gardner is an intriguing character—a man with left-wing beliefs who also enjoys the spectacle of UFC fights. He prides himself on being able to appreciate the artistry and skill of the fighters while distancing himself from their often controversial political opinions.

Gardner relishes the thrill of a well-executed spin kick, despite some fighters' vocal support of figures like Trump. He quips about his background, mentioning his master's degree in the poetry of Sylvia Plath, while humorously admitting his fondness for watching a good head-kicking.

He acknowledges that many fighters have 'problematic' views, which he attributes to steroids and concussions, yet insists that his enjoyment of the sport doesn't equate to an endorsement of their opinions.

Gardner cites Bryce Mitchell as an example, a fighter he describes as a 'pure angel of vengeance' in the ring, whose actions he can appreciate despite disagreeing with Mitchell's eccentric beliefs about flat earth and homeschooling.

He humorously draws the line at supporting fighters with criminal records, although he wryly notes that many in the sport have them. Gardner's approach showcases a quirky balance between his political ideology and his love for the sport's intense drama.
