There’s literally nobody at 135 or 145 for nunes

We need the rematch

Ah, but many of us thought that there was no one for Cyborg, either. Who knows what young and hungry fighter might be waiting in the wings? Or perhaps the other women fighters might take note of what happened tonight and step their own games up.

I think she hits just as hard as Cyborg, if not harder. If you look past the hype, Cyborg really has no one punch knockouts. It's accumulated damage. We'll see, though. I could be completely wrong.

I still don't think she hits as hard as Cyborg. I'm not as shocked as everyone that she won because she is more technical, faster and accurate but I definitely thought Cybreh would eat her punches and finish her off.

Yea but I think JJ would keep it standing as best as he can and tag the fukk out of him. I dont know... DC is great... but at any weight JJ aint no slouch

Jon Jones is a great fighter, but at the HW division Cormier is the greatest. I think people need revisit his days in Strikeforce when he was ragdolling legit 260 lb guys like Barnett and Bigfoot Silva.

Jon Jones walks around at 220 lbs. Cormier would have a 20+ advantage over him. That is A LOT for an olympic-calibre wrestler. Even if you claim that Jones would then add additional 20 lbs to compete, he wouldn't be used to carrying around that sort of weight. He would actually lose explosiveness and gas easily.

People seem to forget Cormier has one of the strongest chins in combat sports and his punch resistance is even increased at HW. He can even soak up punches from guys who have to cut to make HW like Derrick Lewis.

I like Jon Jones. He finishes Cormier again at LWH, but I don't see a fight at HW even being competitive.
