Rousey vs Carano Official Thread

Yeah but the difference is

We knew these fights meant nothing and that was part of the fun

UFC fights should all mean something but we still get duped on meaningless fights every week

Anyone saying the fight was fake or a work is outing themselves as a retard. Any version of Gina gets beat just as easily, Ronda is just that much better. She would still finish most of the girls on the UFC roster easily.

UFC is fine, except for one thing. UFC has 90% of the best fighters. Good product. Reliable match making. The talent is in a lull right now, but that will come about again.

The real issue (for fans) is the number of cards. They do too many and so the product is watered down.

If they did 26 cards a year. One every other week, it would be great.

But they have chosen 43 a year to maximize revenue, and blanket cover the market. Good for their bottom line. Bad for fans.

Yep. Before the fight I said Ronda would take her down WHENEVER she wanted to and then it was over.

That’s exactly what happened. The only question was whether Ronda would choose to stand and trade strikes, but it was always her decision entirely.

Gina can’t hang in the grappling department with Ronda, not even close.

Exactly. The UFC is too saturated with too many events and watered down cards with guys who should not be in the UFC.

Less events makes the events more compelling. I don’t even know the majority of fighters on these cards and I watch more MMA than most.

I doubt it and Gina looked like she didn’t even train and gave no fucks at the quick loss. Just a shit fight in general. Maybe not a work but Gina made no effort to compete in that fight either. Hell, she is pretty old now though so i don’t really blame her.

They both knew what would happen. Gina did this to lose 100lbs and Ronda did it to feel like a winner again so she picked an easy target. They laughed because they suckered everyone into watching, not taking any damage and walking away with a lot of money.

PFL paid Renan more to fight Ngannou than NetFlix did Lins.

I saw NGannou gave his $100K bonus to Lins

Nate and Perry’s disclosed purse was $500k and Perry $400k.. who are the idiots saying they were paying Nate millions?!

It’s a competition between him and Ranalo over who can be the corniest mf’r alive lol.
