Cue a bunch of goobers who've never competed in a contact sport in their lives flocking in to take issue with that :rolleyes::D

Sherdog, baby!

Her losing the belt was bad for WMMA.. it needs people like her and Cyborg (and even Ronda before she got mega-exposed) to look unbeatable so it seems like there's actually a skill gap. It's a bad look when someone can come in and smash the champion like that especially when that person has losses to people who couldn't beat the champ.

I'm a fan of Joanna but I think you're talking out of your ass if you think there was such a big skill gap between her and Rose.
Rose sharpened her skills over time and it was destiny for the two of them to meet as long as Joanna stayed on top.
Like Rose said, she studied her opponent and cracked the code.
There's no saying that method will work again. You can be sure Joanna's working hard not to lose again, but Rose has a deep tool box.

On a sidenote, I will agree that some of the people Joanna faced during her run weren't exactly of the same caliber.

Even if the powers to be want to pick and choose who fights who possibly favoring one fighter over another, but this isn't scripted. As the saying goes, "anything can happen in a fight".

Maybe it's a bit early, but I feel like UFC are gunning for Joanna to win again judging by the amount of promo of her they're pumping out. Meanwhile, Rose is busy at the gym.
 
She had a tough one against Cadelha, but this talk is too early. It either shows in the rematch or in the next one after that, if she loses the rematch.
 
Is Forrest exempt since he waved it off vs Silva rather than tap? He beat shogun so he must be a real fighter
Forrest quit, he also runs out of the cage and cries in the ring, sitting down balling his eyes out.

Forrest is a tough SOB, but you cannot look past these things.
 
I'll be team thug rose all the way in brooklyn that night
 
lol at dissing joanna. she was a legit champ. Rose got a quick win the first time around, lets see how she and joanna fare in the rematch. If joanna isnt mentally shot she still can be a force.
 
Anyone else completely ignore what she was saying and just wondering why in the back ground when Joanna talked there seemed to be an arse?
 
Joanna was down 2 rounds to zero against Claudia and then fought her way to a W by winning the last 3 rounds... I'd say that shows immense fighter spirit.
 
She is easily better then Rose. Rose struck lightning won’t happen again.
