Rousey vs Carano -May 16th

[Big Jean Studd]

On topic, I won't watch but I do hope Rousey snaps her arm in half and goes home with it

Rousey said this was pitched to Dana. Kinda surprised it didn't end up on the white house lawn

Yeah same cuz Rhonda may be a turd ball in some ways she’s not the poster child for MAGA movies

I think Dana is too much of a control freak and wouldn't be happy promoting a "big" fight that he wasn't personally responsible for. In fact, I've thought a decent amount recently about how Triple H making himself basically the poster child of his own company is quite Dana-esque. But it's also just in Triple H's nature so that might be a reach.

Off topic but you ever think theres gonna be a wwe/ufc mixed show?

I don't think either side would ever think that's a good idea

 

[King Kong Booty]

Plus TKO would think of it as eating its own profits and either needs the other to make money and this would essentially be taking two events that make a ton of money and turning it into one

 

[Blazehausen]

They would just charge the price of two events

 

[King Kong Booty]

They would just charge the price of two events

prices are already to high
only so many stupidly rich people

 

[Barry Poppins]

Combat sports has always been corrupt as fuck but yeah this whole fight is fucking dire.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

The unlikeable force vs. the insufferable object

Sky your Scottish wit comes through here and you made one laugh so loud at 6:18am I got wrong for the uncontrollable laughter.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

It's genuinely just another Jake Paul/Netflix cashgrab event. I doubt anyone who actually follows MMA (which I do) sees this as having... really any meaning at all. Just a sideshow attraction, payday for the fighters situation.

Well said Hoss. As a fan myself I’ll watch just for shits and giggles. It’s a cash grab for the fighters and promoters. Only decent Jake fight he ever had against one Tommy Fury and A.J he lost. Second fight he got two titanium rods in his jaw but for $90m I’d of done the same .

This isn't anywhere close to a super fight imo. Carano is like 7-1 in a lesser promotion and is not Cyborg. She is more known for getting shit canned from Star wars than her MMA prowess. Who exactly has she ever beaten?

Say what you will about Rousey but there was a time she was actually elite and the best at at least one facet of MMA. I don't believe that's ever been said about Gina.

Whats the weight difference ? Outside size advantage if any , if Rousey is allowed to do her judo she's tapping her in 2 rounds max imo

She took Disney to Court by the way because of her getting canned and won so she's already 1-0 over Ronda. The Press Conferences and Promotion for this is going to be freaking great.

Francis Ngannou added to this card, fighting middle-of-the-pack former UFC Light Heavyweight Philipe Lins who hasn't fought in 2 years. Gripping!
