What's the rationale behind the Brazilian MMA commission overseeing the fights here in Argentina? I must have missed that explanation on the broadcast.

Guessing Argentina doesn't have a athletic commission that covers combat sports/only boxing so they pay/license the Brazilian commission for their events.

the best use of cheating i've ever seen in my life. how they managed to get a new fighter onto the stool between rounds and sneak out the other piece of poo poo fighter that was losing without anyone noticing was masterful

State athletic commissions are an American thing and the Brazilian one was manufactured so the Brazil UFC shows don't get mistaken for street fights.

Cannetti was a cockbag on TUF, while Vera has a daughter who couldn't smile until her father had given enough men concussions.

It's a little weird hearing Joe talk about "if we get the Joanna who..." I feel like that Joanna show up and just get beat. I don't remember thinking she performed poorly.

Argentina is not exactly a hotbed of MMA, so they probably either do not have an AC, or an AC ready to oversee MMA.

Usually the UFC self-regulates in these situations, but they MUCH prefer to have some kind of government oversight. I imagine Brazil and Argentina worked out a deal so that Brazil has jurisdiction over any regulatory issues that arise from a fight (appealing a result, some kind of crazy assault after the bell, etc)

The advantage for the UFC is if a national government (or a state government in the USA) fines you and says you can't fight for a while, its hard to appeal that, but if some random private company fines you and says you can't fight for a while, then its a hassle for the UFC to defend if the fighter contests it.

I think Joanna is the most consistently good female fighter in the UFC. Dominated her division for ages and spent way too long in the shadow of Rousey IMO.

Do you think she was overshadowed by Rousey? I never thought of it that way, but that might be true. I definitely feel like Joanna shows up game-ready every single time. I wonder if Joe is falling back on the stock promo takes bag, or if he actually thinks we've been seeing a downgraded Joanna.

Edit: Also, did I hear the phrase, "a recent fight against Nate Marquardt?"

Joanna has only recently slightly learned to pronounce things in a comprehensible way so there's that.

I remember that Joanna was systematically dissecting her opponents late in Rousey's successful period but didn't attract nearly as much hype and advertising. Maybe it was partially the language barrier, but I'm not sure.
