I Love WMMA

Wow she looks terrible. I believe she'll win but how many more times can she do this?

 

[Dreyga Hates You Sherbums]

Have seen Juliana she looks like she barely cut at all.

The weight difference must be insane. I really want to know what their Octagon weights are

 

[Bwagster]

Dang, her face looks sunken in. That had to have been a brutal weight cut.

I feel like she wins it. Holds the belt for promotion and sponsorship deals for awhile and vacates or forces the UFCs hand to make 145 again.

Have to admit though, I didn't really think she was going to make weight today. Good on her for being an ultimate professional.

They need to bring 145 back for Kayla. Dunno if they can find enough girls to fill it out but BLAF basically built the bantamweight division off of Ronda and Kayla is much more likeable.

 

[Söze Aldo]

It's sad that the only reason Pena actually has a shot in the fight, is due to Kayla being on death's door the day before the fight cutting weight.

Weight cutting is way too big a factor in this sport.

Kayla competed at 155 in the PFL, she is really draining herself to make 135.
its so ironic that the UFC got rid of 145 less than a year before Kayla joined. she wouldve taken over that weight class from Amanda (not that there was ever much depth in WFW, but Kayla would be much more effective at that weight).

i would not be surprised if Kayla came in 150+ pounds on fight night.

unlike that fatty macee.

 

[World eater]

Reminded me of Christian Bale in The machinist. Hooray for weight cutting!

 

[Luthien]

Pena is cooked

 

[Rampage_Jackson]

Gayest part of the sport this shit stinks man. She's going to kill herself if she does this a few more times

I wonder if Kayla wins - Would Nunes be inclined to return @ 145, given the layoff?

i dont think the UFC cares. If she gets the belt then she can miss weight but the fight would still go on. She'll destroy her opponent and her next fight will be for the vacant title.

there is no one else marketable at 135. Biker mom Rocky Pennington?? Viera who can't speak english? pena just gets made fun of and comes across as cringe.

Didn't look that bad tbh. Or maybe that's because I was expecting her to look incredibly bad.

Kayla is a freak to look at but she's not really any more marketable than the rest. Scrap the division IMO

Idk the emaciation in the face is jarring. Would fit right in with the all time emaciated faces on the scales like 125 Dilly or late stage 145 Conor
