FWIW, Ronda is backing Rose to win it all:

quote:

"I definitely think it’s Rose Namajunas. I called it from the very beginning. As soon as I saw her, I said this girl is special. I've been following her for two years. I wish her all the best, and I can't wait to see how she does in the season."

"She’s bound to be successful. She's got an amazing skill set. She’s an exciting fighter. She takes risks. She’s gorgeous. And she’s charismatic. I really think she has all the tools that are needed in order to be the next really influential champion."

I didn't really think Rose was very charismatic in the first episode, but I think they made the correct decision to keep Pat's screen time to a minimum

And yet here we are, eight years later, and Tim Sylvia is still tied for most HW title defenses.

If Rose did win the UFC Strawweight belt, she'd also beat Jon Jones' record for youngest UFC Champion ever. Go Rose.

A couple of brief preview clips for tonight's ep. Cool to see the coaches actually coming in with video to scout the opposing fighter.

I know. It took about 30 seconds last week for her to win my undying support this season. Let's hope she bakes a mean carrot cake.

Man, I've been watching some of Calderwood's old fights and she is light years ahead in striking. It's almost like an Anderson level of clowning she puts on these fighters. She looks unbeatable on her feet and her TD seems very good. Go jojo.

I find your lack of faith... disturbing
If you've never seen it, Calderwood's fight against Plettenberg is like a real long striking highlight reel. Plettenberg is bad but I think Calderwood gets hit maybe twice

And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

While explaining this the cameraman instead focused on Rose's rear end. A lot.

Not necessarily, they do house drama poo poo after the fights sometimes (probably to change up so people aren't always doing what you just did)
