Not really sure I want to see Rose vs Andrade. Doesn't look like she's changed too much from the woman who got schooled by Joanna a while back, and that's (probably) not going to get it done vs. Rose either.



I get WHY they're doing it, sure. And when it's legit and/or feels legit, then it absolutely adds a lot to the fights. But most of the time it's blatantly manufactured and fraudulent looking, and does nothing but make the UFC's matchmaking look ad hoc and contrived.

Honestly, it says a lot about how little imagination and direction the UFC's matchmakers have that they need to rely on this nonsense to drum up interest in their matches and PPVs. You'd think they would have a handle on proper fight promotion by now.
Damn Karolina was crying. This sucks for her..

Andrade is like Cyborg @ 115.

And I wouldn’t want to see her as champ, not that her fighting is bad - somehow she’s just not very likeable OR hateable. She’s in the middle as a person, doesn’t evoke emotions: not a face not a heel.

But she’s a beast and she deserves this win and a shot at one point.

Also I feel what you’re saying: when EVERY fighter does this.. it quickly gets tiring. It’s one of the weaknesses of the UFC: they need the fighter’s to create drama before they consider booking a certain fight.. that’s crazy. UFC and MMA is filled with almost High School type he said she said drama and that drama drives a lot of the booking.

It would be nice if the UFC created fueds too.

They want Till to be the new Bisping so bad. I think Woodley wins here. He can land that counter right on till. He was hurt badly vs Dalby. His grappling isn’t good either. Thompson took him down. But I just fear Woodley backs himself into the fence and we have Marquand pt 2 with a much bigger skilled striker

best fights of the night were women

you'll never see a dodson/rivera with divisions as hungry as the women's side either.... nobody old or comfortable, looking for handout fights

that sanchez fight earlier was a freebie. dude is washed and only won because he fought a dude thinking it was a bjj competition

As someone who's barely listened to any of Till on the mic and in interviews until that promo, good lord he has the most stereotypically lad/chav accent I've ever heard :mjlol:
