I don’t think that’s throwing anyone under the bus. He’s just being honest and most people don’t see that from coaches nowadays.

Her last 5 opponents were on a combined 0-19 losing streak and she got a title shot.

This is as far as she goes.

I thought it was pretty unnecessary of him to say. She got dominated but he could have been more publicly supportive.

One of the biggest problems with combat sports is that it’s always been full of sycophants who are afraid to tell fighters the truth so they can keep profiting off of them. Price fighting is a hard business. Fighters deserve honesty. Telling people what they want to hear has been the absolute worst thing for many fighters throughout history.

Ok. I thought it was interesting and discussion worthy. Is it better to have less content?

Maybe that’s a conversation meant to be directly with the fighter and not on a post fight show.

I chased my tail a couple years ago trying to solve this problem and just kept running in to Angela Hills at 19-16.

This is why they’re hoping and praying Weili comes back to fight the fake Brazilian.
