Shocked they didn't try to stack a card and put it in Cowboys' Stadium...the stars have aligned and possibly had...

McGregor vs. Aldo
Rousey vs. Tate III
Weidman vs. Rockhold

aRousey is going to have to start fighting men. No woman is kicking her ass. She makes it look way too easy plus that wicked game 7 look she has. That girl is banging any woman till father time steps in.

She's not unbeatable...hell Liz Carmouche nearly choked her out in their fight.

Someone will give her a good fight...

No one is unbeatable but that really wasn't all that close to a choke. That was a face squeez and RR threw her off pretty damn quick.</br></br>

Now no one better get hurt because I want to ****ing watch Aldo vs. Macgregor so ****ing much.

KC native 08-11-2015 02:39 PM

What sucks about Rousey is that you know there's some young chick that is training their ass off to beat her but it will probably come when Rousey is close to being done.

The competition in the women's divisions is just too thin right now.

I assume you are joking because its a pretty common joke to refer to the fact that her division is so new and needs so much time and work to get to her level, but this is as good a time as any to say that there's a reason why weight divisions exist.

Sometimes its good to jump one weight class if someone is a freak of nature at their weight class, but no one is eager to see Mighty Mouse try to fight, say Weidman. That would be a joke. To me, asking for Ronda to fight small men makes about as much sense as asking DC to wrestle a small, defanged, declawed kodiak bear. That would be a circus sideshow. Even if we picked a pretty weak, injured, old dwarf bear that DC would potentially out-wrestle somehow, I still don't want to see that.

If we had a dominant multi-year heavyweight champion, no one would give him shit because there's no other options, we'd just sit back and admire his reign. Its fine to celebrate champions of other divisions without qualification.

I love Cowboy, hope he wins but I don't think he will.

Jerm 08-13-2015 12:57 PM

Awesome that'll be on FOX...

Anderson Silva's disciplinary hearing with the NSAC is going on right now. According to twitter, its not going very well for him at all, they are very unimpressed with his defense.

He needs to just say **** it and retire.

alnorth 08-13-2015 02:16 PM

This hearing is apparently amazingly hilarious. I'm gonna have to watch or listen to a replay if one is available later.

His defense is basically that he took a sexual enhancement/performance drug from a friend. Hilarity ensues.

Probably the best quote on twitter from the NSAC:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Marnell: Did it ever cross ur mind that taking a blue vial from a friend in Thailand for a fighter of your stature might not be a good move?</p>&mdash; Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) <a href="https://twitter.com/arielhelwani/status/631920237949140993">August 13, 2015</a></blockquote>
