That's true but even so, Tate in the main event of the biggest show in history is still very funny

Miesha Tate was bad and boring but she was well-known and semi-popular from being less crazy than Ronda, so it wasn’t too crazy

As far as I can tell, that's the only time a non-title fight has mained over a title fight.

Before UFC 196 you have to go back to UFC 183 for a non-title main event on a PPV, and the co-main wasn't a title match. Before that, you had to go back to 161 before the main wasn't a title match, and the co-main still wasn't a title match. I seriously don't think they've ever done it except for 196.

In actual discussion, I refuse to believe that anyone is excited about Holly Holm vs Cris Cyborg at featherweight.

The only thing that would be exciting or funny would be Holly Holm winning, and honestly? that doesn't help anyone right now.

the only fight that would have meant anything and the whole reason they signed Cyborg in the first place would have been Ronda and lol, that's not happening now unless Ronda actually is depressed and wants to die in the ring finally like Mark Hunt.

imo most of hollys fights are bad but I like what she did in coming in and beating ronda, but cyborg is one of the worst fighters ive ever been subjected to. Her fights are awful, and usually the circumstances are suspect.
