My question is this, is this because Rousey is an absolute monster, and the best submission fighter we've seen, is it because the standard of womens MMA is much lower and Rousey is simply the best trained and maybe hardest working female fighter there is, or is it a bit of both?

Thoughts?

The UFC needs to set up a one-off fight between Ronda and Kyra Gracie, then we will have our answer; Dana is a huge Rousey fan and he has set up one-off fights before (Royce-Hughes and Couture-Toney) so it would not be unprecedented.

I'm betting it would sell a shed load of PPVs just off the back of the attractiveness of both fighters.

I can't see Ronda subbing Kyra in a thousand years though.
 
female fighters suck apart from cyborg and ronda and 1-2 others that could hold there own.... that is why ronda looks so hot and good.

roll on hendo bomb, oh wait 2 weeks wait for that :(
 
It is just insane that she has done this again. Just seen it and what on earth! 6 fights 6 wins 6 arm bars? How is that even possible? God damn it. Also I want her to have my babies.
 
The only fight that's worth anything is her vs Cyborg.

But she ran from 145 so she didn't have to fight Cyborg and is now calling Cyborg to come to 135 which Cyborg has said many times she can't make.

Her plan was to "go win the 135 title and then go back to 145 and hold both" it seems to have changed drastically.
 
The bookies in the US have Benson Henderson as a 3 to 1 favourite for his upcoming fight with Nate Diaz, looks like I'm going to be putting some money down on Nate.

Speaking of the Diaz brothers, this HL video is great (parental advisory etc):

 
151 cancelled. Hendo has a partial tear in his MCL. Chael accepted the fight but Jon Jones turned down the fight on advice from Greg Jackson.

Jones vs Machida II will happen.

Joke.

Dana white is annoyed with Jones, no champion has turned down a fight like that before.

I don't think they should have a choice personally, fight who you get told to fight/
 
Don't blame Jones really for turning down the fight, and I'm not a fan. A lot to lose and little to nothing to gain.

Sonnen coming off a loss at 185 looks really bad for Jones if he puts on a good show. And if he wins easily people will just think that was to be expected anyway. Most people who watch the ufc will just see it as Sonnen 185lb guy, so Jones beating a smaller man despite most of Sonnen fights being at 205 anyway.
