Rose looked sensational. I love how she was looking for subs the whole fight and it paid off in the end.

Rose is just way more explosive then the rest of them. I figured she would give jo jo trouble just because she's kind of a slow plodder.

I know they can skew things to look a certain way but it looks like Carla vs penne next week is gonna be a crazy fight.

Rose :whoo:

young and inexperienced but is giving out work to one of the best in the world

shes a future champ for sure, that speed and kickboxing she showed was amazing, those kimuras aswell:ohlawd:

you could see Jojo was shocked by her intensity and fast explosive start

Carla better fix up soon, some of those TD attempts :scust:.

UFC will want Rose to be champ

It's gonna be a letdown when Carla Esparza wins the belt and puts on zzzzzzzz fights

what are people's thoughts on castmates saying Tecia Torres decline in performance was from inability to use steriods?

I've never seen any of her fights before tuf so it's tough for me to say but I think she got two of the worst match ups for her in randa and Carla so I think that might have more to do with it they anything.

rose and penne are the only ones who can beat carla.

funny thing about carla, her invicta fights were kinda boring, her fights in the house have been entertaining to me.

Yeah, that was another great performance from Rose. She is so aggressive, always coming forward with strikes and she has a nasty guard. Love the way she kept throwing up submissions. I'm surprised she lost to Tecia in Invicta because she has looked like a killer, while Tecia has just looked okay. In her fight with Carla, she wasn't throwing nearly enough. I get she was worried about the takedown, but she needed more offense. I think Jojo would have done better with the strategy that Pettis was talking about, with finding her range and using her size more. I get she wanted to find in the clinch and utilize her Muy Thai, but going to the ground turned out to be a mistake.

Rose has looked great, but she does seem small for the division and someone who can avoid her subs and deal with her strikes I think has a chance. Penne/Esparza next week should be interesting. Carla will use her wrestling, but Jessica is nice with the BJJ and will be looking for subs and sweeps.
