cyborg weighing in at 145. looks pretty dehydrated. not sure if she could lose ten more and not be affected by the weight cut. she has had difficulty and missed weight before too so,.........

I'm surprised no one is talking about the Sub of the Night. Good to see some creativity from the back instead of the classic RNC.

And how about Kos getting TKO'd?

Hendo vs Machida wasn't half as boring as Schaub vs Johnson.

Definitely a candidate for SOTY.
I'd never seen it done before either, but apparently it has been done.

Can you elaborate on Jones ducking?? he didn't duck chael if that's what you are implying.

Rhonda leaving the weight class undefeated and on the verge of a title shot is ducking. again, you guys can ignore the facts and spin it how you want. name one person who starts off in one division, dominates and is in title contention and leaves the division. if there is anyone that did what Rhonda did, I don't know about it. but don't give me the "weight class wasn't right for her" argument. before dropping weight, she had 7 first round armbars including amateurs. what? was the armbars not being done quick enough? was the no-weight-cut too hard on her?? lol, oh I know,.............. there's a big manly beast named cyborg at the top which Rhonda was climbing the ladder really really fast on, that's why she dropped weight. and meisha tate was the better fight for her style. smaller, doesn't punch harder than men and quite frankly, not as scary. I like Rhonda, i'm a fan. but I gotta call a spade a spade man. she leaves the division, calls out the champ from another division. if you are a champ, you want another champ, you go to that champ's division. don't hide in your own weight class knowing she won't make weight and call someone out.

and don't compare Anderson silva to Rhonda, the situations are different. Anderson did not start out his career fighting at 205 like Rhonda started at 145, he started the ufc and 185 and dominated, then wanted to test himself at a heavier weight but his home is 185. how is that the same as what Rhonda did? Rhonda started at 145, (3 amateur fights, 4 pro fights) dominated and left the division. plus, Rhonda is calling out the bigger fighter. Anderson isn't calling anyone out. but if you wanna get into Anderson, that's a whole other conversation we can get into.

the motto "to each their own" was referring to boring fighters, not who was ducking who

Not to correct you technically he fought as low as168. Proceed with your argument.

I had a coworker named Rhonda and spelled it that way. force of habit. anyways, it is all circumstantial but this discussion started because you accused cyborg of ducking. but with the given facts I think she is the one that ducked. and like you, I wouldn't blame her. and I don't even care if she ducked her or not but what rubs me the wrong way with Ronda is that she talks smack and calls her out while fighting at 135. you see what i'm saying? imagine gsp calls out Anderson silva and dares him to come to 170. I'd be like, wtf gsp?? if someone is calling you out from a higher weight class, then you tell them they're welcome to come down and meet you on your turf, that's fine. that's different. but don't call her out and dare her to come down to your weight class. especially when you have fought at her weight class before AND dominated. that's all i'm saying, she should just ignore the cyborg thing and move on and if cyborg wants a crack at you, then you respond. cyborg is even wanting to fight at a catchweight but ronda won't. we still may see cyborg in the ufc. believe me, if ufc plans on keeping the women in the ufc, they will be bringing in invicta girls. i'm just sad that Megumi, the real p4p #1 female fighter is retired

I didn't realize that Fujii retired...that sucks. I think that'll happen too. I wasn't really accusing Cyborg of ducking her, just saying that it seems a little suspicious, but I guess if there's no 145 in the UFC, she can't go there, because as per your other quote, I don't think Cyborg could get down below 145, either, and if she could she wouldn't be 100% and if I was Ronda, I would want to fight her at 100%...or at least as close as a fighter can get to that before a fight.
