MMA Thread the Third

[LemonMelon]

When Jessica heard it was unanimous, she knew it was over.

I disagree, I thought Miesha was trying too hard for a submission and her strike game was pretty weak outside of that one first round hit. Third round went to Jessica IMO.

 

[deep]

Now
Why should Miesha lose to Ronda a third time?

 

[bono_212]

Oh well, maybe Ronda will lose at 190 and Tate will never get her undeserved rematch.

 

[LemonMelon]

lol Ronda is going to annihilate her

 

[bono_212]

lol Ronda is going to annihilate her

Even if Miesha manages to survive until round five this time, she's still going to be putting that arm in another sling.

 

[deep]

And Ronda would do it to Eye much quicker and overwhelmingly.

 

[bono_212]

Absolutely. Neither of them can beat Ronda, but at least someone else would get a shot.

 

[deep]

I really do think Tate is the one person that gives her the best fight.

 

[deep]

I'll watch Rondas next fight but they are not that intertaining

If I have to watch Tate in over her head, let it be this


Since Ronda Rousey won’t, Miesha Tate says she’ll fight ‘Cyborg’ at 140 pounds | MMAjunkie

 

[bono_212]

What do they do to make this Cyborg thing work, though? Do they add a third female weight class? There's just no way she can fight right at 135.

And nobody has got out of round one
If next week ends quick, Tate is still in a class by herself.

UFC can allow a catch weight at 140
No belt, just bragging rights

 

[bono_212]

Yeah, that's true. Wouldn't be quite as fun though.


Barao is only 28? Holy shit.

 

[deep]

Cyborg is trying to get to 135 and the UFC
Dana could make the fight with Ronda then. I wonder if Cyborg would still have her power.

 

[bono_212]

I don't see how she could retain muscle and still get to that weight. I just don't.


This fight is going about as I expected, which is to say, exactly the same as the first.

 

[deep]

T J could still get knocked out
Not likely, but possible.

 

[bono_212]

This is depressing. Renan is so young and he was dominate for so long. But he's going to be waiting a while to get another chance at the belt now.

And yeah, he could still knock TJ out at this point...if he can find him.

 

[deep]

I don't see how she could retain muscle and still get to that weight. I just don't.

That is why 140 would be a more legit fight
I think Rousey will want to take out Tate in round one this time.


I really respect Tate too bad she is fighting in the same time as an arm eating machine freak.

 

[bono_212]

It's funny how quickly Dean called it for Conor, and yet he'll let this shit go one forever sometimes.

 

[deep]

Sad day for Brazil
Who will be their next champion?

 

[bono_212]

Which isn't to say I disagree with Dean's decision in the McGregor fight, I've come to realize he was correct. What I mean is, I hate how slow he sometimes is to call a fight.

 

[deep]

It's one of those damned if you do and damned if you don't situations.

 

[bono_212]

Probably so.

 

[IWasBored]

I find I cant be mad at Herb Dean while Yves Lavigne is still reffing.

 

[IWasBored]

Lolz

Y do Brazilians say this so much?

I don't know, my fren. I do not know.

 

[u2popmofo]

TJ r teh good

 

[bono_212]

I'll be happy to see him yet another real title defense, now. Enough of the Barao show.

 

[IWasBored]

Is Assuncao done being injured yet?

 

[bono_212]

Oh that would be fun.

 

[IWasBored]

Wasn't that who Dillashaw replaced the first time he beat Barao?
