GDR reacts from being stripped of the Women's Featherweight title, says she's going back to 135.

[GordoBarraBJJ]

Thing is GDR would probably offer more of a threat as she is way more skilled than Megan.

Should have just taken the fight, even in a loss, she'd get paid and can say at least she did not back down from a challenge.

Oh well. After chris mauls megan (most likely) what is left for this division - chris and megan rematch over and over?

 

[kflo]

Ill meet you halfway and agree Conor is looking for the SMARTER fights.
The lowest possible risk and the highest possible reward.

the idea that fighting rda, or rematching diaz was simply low risk high reward is dumb.

 

[Failwani]

lmao, how was she not aware, the internet has known about her ducking the literally only other featherweight on the roster for months.

 

[SpedDaddyV]

yeah, RDA was an absolute monster at the time and looked to be the most dominant LW champ we were gonna have in a long time until the temperamental brazilian in him kicked in

as if "it" is the ufc. it is conor and floyd.

gdr has 1 ufc slim decision win. again, the overwhelming majority of the title fights are with worthy competitors.

many of you just like to complain about conor. it's too bad he destroyed aldo and eddie. this all could have been avoided.

It could have been avoided if he put up anything to risk in any of his fights.

And actually defended his title the way a good lil champ should have.

Ain't nobody with a high IQ wanna watch an overpriced glorified shadow boxing match...in another sport.

You make little sense sherbro.

 

[kflo]

Germaine was just following Connie's example of hanging onto the belt without defending for as long as possible.

Possibly setting up as many fights where you don't risk losing anything as well.

pretty dumb then to follow the example of the biggest star in the sport and expect the same treatment. it's like the fill in demanding all the red m&m's be removed from his dressing room on the movie set.

 

[KeepItRealist]

Creating this division was one of the most bizarre things the UFC has ever done. They couldn't even list a top 10 ranking because there is like 2 fighters in the division.

All she needed to do was wear her sunglasses indoors and swear allot.

That would have been enough to get the low brow masses on her side so she could call her own safe shots.

again the idea that he "should" have defended his belt instead of moving up to challenge the heavier champ is fuckin dumb. that he "should" defend instead of fighting floyd is dumb. seriously, the idea that these choices are wrong is really kinda absurd.

as you're aware, the fight will sell millions and make the participants alot of money, and they will be getting money from alot of smart people too.

The difference is Twitter mcpopularity. You can go far in the McUFC with a strong Twitter coach and training

it was created specifically for cybro.

They wanna try and see how big of numbers she can pull from brazil.

the motivation is so fucking transparent.

 

[Krixes]

I don't think many will ever consider her a real champion. She cheated to win the belt then ducked the #1 contender.

 

[kflo]

yup. anyone can just become a big star. it's so easy.

 

[OriginMMA]

GDR is GOAT worse champion.

I get it. But they did it after she was busted for PEDs and there's no one in the division. They can't even list a top 10 on the official rankings, hahaha. It's just so bizarre. They are going to have to bring up women from other orgs on a one-fight contract for the UFC belt to get blasted out by Cyborg.

It's freakin 90s MMA stuff.

 

[BigGing]

Didn't she say she was going back to 135 anyways? This UFC has turned into a fucking circus

 

[Gio]

Lol, UFC you f*cking hypocrites

 

[kevo1295]

She had a belt what the fuck?!
