They said that fighters are going to get signature animations so I hope that means Bendo is constantly adjusting his hair and toothpick and you can't defend against punches as Kikuno.

I'm trying to sell my friends on Joanna by telling them that she's a plastic surgeon in reverse. I've only seen her last two fights though, how were her two decision wins? I'm just hoping for more blood and destruction.

As others said, she easily smacked around Juliana Lima (it wasn't utter destruction though), and her fight with Gadelha was razor thin. If you want another fight to reference, in her final pre-UFC fight in Cage Warriors she hosed up Rosi Sexton hard.

There are some rumors that someone on one of the December cards is injured. JDS/Overeem might be off or Cowboy/RDA might be off. Or they might both be off. I really shouldn't have gotten my hopes up for Reem/JDS. It's been cancelled and postponed so many times that I think it's probably never going to happen, or only happen after they're both on the cusp of retirement like Wand and Liddell.

The rumor is RDA is hurt, and that Thiago Alves is also hurt for his fight later this month. If both are true there's no reason not to do Benson vs Cerrone IV in Korea and then Benson vs Cerrone V live on FOX.

I approve of this. Benson v. Cerrone 1 was one of my favorite fights. 2 was a disappointment, 3 was a train wreck. 4th time is a charm, right? Right?...

Holly touched her face with her fist, maybe pushed a little and Ronda didn't take kindly to it. poo poo these folks are basically starved and sometimes tempers flare for weird poo poo.

Plus remember the last time a fighter legit annoyed Ronda before a fight. Because I don't think Bethe remembers herself.

Doesn't she always approach her opponents fast and intense like that at the weigh ins. Holly Holm just looked really unprepared for the whole thing.

I'm all for more women's divisions, but are there enough decent fighters for 115, 125, and 135? It's pretty common to go 2 or 3 events consecutively with no women's fight so this seems odd to me.

That's exactly what I was thinking. UFC might have pulled Miesha from her 3rd fight with Ronda since they've been planning on doing a W125 division in the near future. There's no reason for Miesha to ruin her 4 fight win streak and give Ronda another highlight finish she doesn't need.

I think adding another women's division is a bad idea since 135 still sucks and 115 is merely okay, but if it serves as a "here's the division where women go who are tired of getting the poo poo kicked out of them by Joanna and Ronda, now the toughest competition should be Miesha Tate" it would be a good thing UFC is doing for these outmatched fighters.

Also if adding in a flyweight division adds in a way for Roxanne Modafferi to get one more UFC shot I'm all for it. Would love to see her and Andrea 'KGB' Lee in that division.

stop the fucking fight, cornerman, your dude is fucking done and is about to be killed.
i am already struggling to give a single, solitary gently caress about any woman's fight that isn't #1 contender / championship fight. miesha tate as champion of anything makes me feel wrong. basically i'm not looking forward to w125 but it's a really good thing to talk about when you have two marketable women champions about to fight.

Ronda Rousey vs Miesha Tate 3 is a very hard sell, even if Tate was probably Ronda's hardest fight. Making it a champion vs champion got makes that a lot easier.

Probably? I know we all hate Caraway but drat. Ronda literally smashed everyone else within a couple minutes. Miesha never had her in trouble but she fought a fairly competitive fight. She was about as competitive as Brown against Lawlor.

Ronda v Meisha 3 is the easiest fight to sell other than the eventual Cyborg fight.
