don't bite on LWB's wmma gimmick, you dweebs. and don't bite on my gimmick when i say that everyone at 205 should be force-fed pancakes to the point of morbid obesity and then go kickbox retired sumo wrestlers in japan because it would be a better athletic spectacle than the current lhw division

I'm not necessarily proud of this but I'm gonna leave it here anyways.
I like this idea that the fights between men are mostly interesting contests between competent looking competitors. How much of this sport do you actually watch?

If you watch mma and don't realize that the men are several steps ahead of women skillwise, and have mich more power then idk what to tell you

For sure put a horrible wmma fight on the main card I am very excited to pay money to see it. WMMA is as good as real mma because I love decisions and footwork and boring lovely fights

I can't imagine preemptively declaring any given upcoming fight between unknown people is going to be a million times worse than Woodley vs Thompson 2, no matter what my preconceived notions of their skills are based on their gender. That takes dedication

Those were also main events and dumber fights. And 15 PPVs for one guy who has consistently lovely fights isn't sometimes, especially when there are a ton of dudes out there who are almost guaranteed to be boring. The fact that y'all single out women is pretty stupid when the UFC does woeful garbage like put two TUF Brazil finale fights on a main card.

When you have 2 of the 3 least populated divisions that have had 2 of the 3 fewest number of fights in 2017 (and I assume this has held for previous years), I'm pretty sure it's hard for those fighters to consistently train at a high level and also fight enough to get better

maybe
