Has wmma regressed?

You clearly have very little experience in the real world, or you are just full of shit. In the real world regardless of gender, being pleasant to the eyes absolutely makes it easier to listen to people. Ever turn on the TV and see ugly people?

Yea Sanko is sooo much more smarter and funny than other females the same way Erin Andrews got her job being so much smarter and funny than others.

You can’t even see her when she’s commentating? What are you talking about dude

Pennington = Strickland

135 needed a major injection of talent however over the last year they've signed Kayla Harrison, Melissa Dixon, Dariya Zhelezkyakova, Jacqueline Cavalcanti, Luana Santos and Nora Cornolle to spice things up a bit.

Irina Alekseeva and Montserrat Rendon will have some fun fights too.

That's why I carry a photograph of Laura Sanko at all times, just in case she's not on camera.

 

[Tayski]

Then that paves the way for these lady athletes to pounce, but the UFC are denying them that opportunity. There's some good prospects out there that they've either missed out on or haven't pulled the trigger with yet.

People in general aren't as interested in women fights, even the biggest female stars don't pull the same sort of numbers as their male stars.

Exactly! I think we are on the same page now. Thank God, I am experienced enough to tune out those frequencies. She didn't pay all that money to enhance herself for guys to stare at her voice.

Too many of them say ish ish everytime they throw a punch.

Fixed that for you

Let's not get carried away Romeo. Stop faking you really that interested in "opportunities" outside of the cage for women in the sport. You can google Laura Sanko and several others to find what you want to see from them outside of the cage without pretending you are so interested in listening to them talk.

The UFC has tried to push Karate Hottie, Miesha Tate, and other attractive female fighters into desk and commentary careers, and it hasn't panned out. Sanko is where she is because she is good at it. She put in the work and it took her longer than her male peers to get where she is. There's no need to denigrate her for being attractive.

It's very hard for the white knights in sherdog to understand that

That is very binary of you throwing out all those offensive pronouns like that with approval.

What do you want dude? You want them to put a fat chick in the booth? Will that make you happy? She's better at the job than DC. You complaining about a female commentator being attractive makes you sound like an incel.

 

[barillas]

I just saw this retarded argument somewhere "Women's MMA is actually very much popular compared to other sports where women compete (WNBA)"

 

[Ares Black]

What an offensive question! I am offended by all of them <<sir>> <<madam>>, please fill in which one that doesn't offend you.

No pronouns offend me. Not sure why they would offend you.

 

[Ares Black]

Just hit the ignore button on every retard in this forum and it becomes a much better place

Unfortunately you can't Ignore yourself.

Trust me, I've tried!

Nah, 115 and 125 are better than ever and have amazing champs Weili and Grasso plus respectable TOP 5

The women are not only more skilled than before they are more athletic, they are better at cutting weight, they start training at younger ages, more experience, and are better finishers than ever before…


The real issue is that the heavier WMMA weight classes are shallow because women naturally have smaller bodies.

Think about the talent drop off in men’s HW well that drop off happens at 135 for women

That’s why the UFC should get rid of 145 and open an 105 division instead

I would love a 105 class! Instead of 145 have a 145-165ish super WHW class

 

[Krixes]

I like WMMA but it's rough sometimes. It's tough when you get done watching two highly skilled men fight, and the next fight is between two women that can even throw a punch properly, shoot a blast double, or anything all that explosive.

Atomweight is a no brainer, a big girl division is interesting, but the talent pool of female combat athletes that size is incredibly small. WFWs are pretty damn big women already.

It's also tough when you watch a high pace high skill action packed Strawweight banger and then the next fight is a slo-mo HW slopfest.
