I don't know how you can train striking for that long and still look as bad as she does at it.

I know there's a lot of natural ability when it comes to it but you'd think someone who has been training boxing for 20 years would at least look somewhat professional when throwing strikes but she still looks like someone who just walked in the boxing gym that morning.

She’s done. She’s been done. We can’t “pet cemetery” fighters careers, they always come back worse.

What does pet cemetery means in that context?

I don't know what this video is about, but no way am i clicking on it and having this show up on my feed.

Pretty much every country song.

where is her holding a can in her ass picture?

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

She fought like a she devil but it was a bad matchup imo
I think she still has some fights in her at 38- but it was either a bad game plan or she threw it out the window and went berserker
She also had a really long lay off

Thoughts?

you're right but people here are so occupied with only watching the top 1% ever at all times that any slight regression is just automatic bellator. i saw the same thing, plenty of spunk, belief, but she needs way better takedowns. she won the third round as soon as she got her down IMO. but it was too little too late. i think she just needs to keep that same tenacity, and work on multiple entries for her takedowns. and go full khabib for striking. 1s and 2s and block those calf kicks.

It means they are already dead and buried - they can’t just be magically resurrected as some destructive beast.

The money is the only point.

No one at that age/stage of their career needs to be doing this shit to themselves for any other reason, which is really sad commentary on an ex-champion who is one of the most important figures in growing WMMA as a marketable commodity needing the paydays and not having other options when they aren't even 40.

You'd think the UFC could throw her a bone like they did with so many other less important fighters (they gave Michelle Waterson and Anthony Smith commentary jobs), but seems to be a about how much of a company man/woman you were than how important a fighter you were and how much money you made the organization.

She'd left for a few years doing a lucrative executive and interviewer job for ONE but she said wanted to move back to the US and fight before she was too old.

Did you see what happened to her thigh when she got kicked?
Looked like burnt shriveled meat but pale, looked like a 70 year old, old lady leg, a skinny one too.

pics?

I was expecting a picture of her on this thread.
