Agreed. It's like old-school ufc but without the "making it up as they go" aspects.

Yeah I more meant bad technique but at least the rules are fixed. WMMA is the do-over of talent development without abominations like Militech-Burnet, for example. Or what was the early fight where the japanese guy reached into his opponent's shorts and grabbed his cup and controlled him like that?

You could see that coming after the end of the first round where Ould was really hurt by those knees to the body

That girl got a good win but she is not by any means ready for Barb Honchak. Are they that desperate for flyweights that they'd suggest that? Or is it just Kedzie being terrible at her job?

edit: totally forgot that Kedzie is the matchmaker. That's hillarious poo poo.

i think it's weird that julie kedzie is still doing post-fight interviews

"who do you want to fight next?"

"oh i'll fight whoever they put in front of me."

there is no they; it's julie kedzie. who is right next to you.

I love how chilled out this all is. The post fight interviews, that weird super long table discussion with the soft piano music underscoring, and nary a note of nu-metal to be heard. The whole thing is like the anti-FACE THE PAIN.

I mean if she's actually serious about being a good fighter and given up this naturalist crap and is taking roids like a real fighter then she can probably win but... yeah it's Roxy none of that is going to happen.

I heard she was facing someone who is good at judo, and was expecting a KO from being thrown on her back/head. But then fight happened...

I mean they are obviously extremely bad at fighting but so was that karate guy that got body slammed into a literal death. They just had worse production values back then.
