It was funny when her opponent wouldn't look at her at the weigh ins because she was so pissed about the Kitana costume.

Roxy with the takedown to full mount. Dope.

those are some interesting elbows. Not quite spike elbows, so they're legal, but probably pretty damaging even without a windup.

Ever since seeing her in the Rousey/Tate TUF season have always cheered for Roxy. She's one of those fighters who it's hard not to cheer for.

If Roxy comes away with this they should just rematch her and Andrea Lee. Lee probably wants that win back.

She's skilled relative to her competition but not really good at all. Of course this is bantamweight so she could be fighting Ronda Rousey in 6 months.

I just got home and am browsing results and lol Kankaanpaa lost to a really bad fighter. Who was it here that ranked her int he top 10 despite her looking like poo poo in every fight ever and failing to take down and submit Joanne Calderwood. Because y'all look real dumb right now.

I just watched it.

The first 2 rounds could've gone either way and I don't blame the judges for giving them to Bennett when she basically got up from every takedown and threatened guillotines whenever she couldn't immediately get up. 3rd was obviously Kankaanpaa's and she needed more rounds like that to make it decisive.

Those guillotines were so threatening Kankaanpaa put herself in them multiple times and didn't do anything to defend them and still got out of all of them.

ehhh, Bennett beat Michelle "White Power" Ould, so she's good in my book

(I won't say she's good because she's undefeated, because lol, Bethe)

If Cyborg and Rousey both fight in November, then their schedules are going to more or less align and they'll be fighting in probably 6-9 months after that barring Cyborg losing or something.

Maybe? I mean, you can use that logic continuously but at some point it doesn't hold up. "If she can get to 135, she can get to 130..." and so on until she's fighting 8 year olds at a 65 lb limit. Just depends on what she has to do to get to 140. I agree she can probably make it, but I don't think fighting at 140 is a guarantee she can go another 5.

From the pictures of her previous cut to 140, there are tons of people she can cut another 5lbs. If you look at the pics she still has plenty of mass in her thighs and upper torso that could go. Sure, it could mean a loss of some muscle mass, but you get that with a lot of cuts.
