Rousey is already out the door basically. She admitted it. I really don't care to see her fight at all.

Now that is a fight that I want to watch

[BD24]

pumped for Cruz/Garbrandt. Should be interesting, pretty confident Dom will take it, should be a good fight nonetheless.

Personally love watching the smaller guys fight. 155 and down I feel are generally the best fighters from a technical standpoint and they don't gas out like some of the heavier classes.

[Cry Havoc]

Nunes
Dom
Cain
TJ

Cruz can floor people with surprising power, and I think Cody is going to get frustrated with his movement and start winging punches, then get caught by a nasty counter and go lights out.

Cain/Werdum is a real toss-up. I might change my answer on this, great fight.

This is a loaded card to close the year.

There has NEVER been a more bitch-made champions as Ronda. Takes shyt to everyone then spends 6 month in a fetal position when confronted w/ adversity.:lmao

Cody has to be one of the stupidest fighters in the UFC.

Last night he literally asked Dom "Who have you beat!?"

Uh... dude... he's made a career out of taking out your teammates and has one loss in his pro career. He's the only guy who's ever beaten Mighty Mouse. You fucking serious?

The more Cody talks the more you realize how large the gap is between his knowledge of the game and Dom's. It won't go 5. Dom is going to destroy this fool.

Dom has the best trash talk to. He called garbrandt mentally unstable or a mess or something like that awhile back. It was fantastic.

Honestly a solid arguement could be made for Dom as p4p #1 the guy has beaten the who's who of his weight class and his only loss was at 145 very very early in his career to a dominant featherweight champ.

I think Dom, MM, and Conor have all done things to establish themselves as kings of the MMA world.

Mighty Mouse for his sustained DOMINANCE, Dom, who returned from injury, fought once, and then made the champion who had just destroyed a GOAT look completely silly, and Conor for doing things that no one has ever done in the UFC.

[Cry Havoc]

ufr-zurcO0Q

According to Cody, Dom was "shaking in his boots".

For starters, Dom is probably wearing dress shoes here, not boots, and secondly, he doesn't even take his hands out of his pockets. :lol

Can't wait for this child to get completely decimated.

[tlongII]

Velasquez is out now.

[Cry Havoc]

Velasquez is out now.

At this point AKA should be suspended from competition until they show they can bring healthy fighters to the cage with frequency. This isn't even about the fights anymore -- it's about the health of their fighters.

Cormier, Cain, Khabib, and Luke, all of their most talented fighters are perpetually hurt. Between the four, there have been a total of what, 5 fights in the past 3 years? Combined? Unreal.

[blizz]

Anyone have a stream link for it? Pm me plz

[thiste]

Well that was spectacular

Hard for Cruz but Garbrandt deserves it

[thiste]

That went as I and many other thought... She's not in it anymore, and more importantly she has no boxing. She dodged literally none of those punches.

What a contrast with the previous fight lol

[01Snake]

That was a quick $3M.

Seriously. The idiot just stands there like a punching bag. Why don't you do what you're good at and simply try and take it to the ground as fast as you can. Does she even have a coach?

Well, she doesn't seem to see what everyone else knows, that Edmond sucks balls.

[dbreiden83080]

Feel bad for Cruz. He's been through a lot and that's a tough defeat. He fought like a warrior though..

Yes her game plan appeared to be run forward with your chin straight up in the air..

Worked out well..

[redzero]

Rousey got paid 62,500 dollars a second for that match. Goddamn.

Gimmick is up. Time for Dana to start hating women's fighting again.

[Death In June]

I went to this fight because Cruz is my all time favorite fighter to watch and threw what I spent on my trip to Vegas behind him at the sports book. Totally fucked my night up. Guy just looked a step slow and I guess I was disappointed he didn't attempt to take the fight to the ground. The only joy I took away from that night was watching the crowd deflate as Ronda was utterly smashed.
