What a barn burner!!

I honestly thought they were leaving this matchup to headline the first PFL Super Series PPV next year

wild that the UFC tricked people into thinking Ladd was good

 

[Kuksenkov]

Budd's bish ass had to pullout again. Not shocked.

Norm for many a WMMA prospect.

Remember how Bellator tried to sell Yankova despite her constantly looking bad and missing weight? Loureda too, looks go so far for WMMA fighters.

UFC keeps trying to pull a fast one with Molly McCann even now, except for the times they inexplicably throw her the way of a good grappler.

Sad Fight can can be caned?

UFC didn’t do anything. Fans fool themselves into thinking a fighter is good after one or two flashy wins. UFC just takes advantage of fools. Ladd, Johnny Walker, every heavyweight as soon as they score two straight KOs, and in and on.

Budd's bish ass had to pullout again. Not shocked.

The reason given by PFL is hella sketchy. Wouldn’t surprise me if PFL saw Harrison vs Budd wasn’t catching on, and found a reason to replace her.

 

[CC27]

i mean i guess as a replacement its about as good as you can do since she was in UFC but yeah its really a who cares fight. Harrison's hype train derailed and other than fighting Cyborg I dont just dont think people care.

 

[Doctor Grudge]

Aspen Ladd was popular and in the press but I don't think serious MMA fans every thought she was anything special.

 

[David Street]

Aspen Ladd will get overpowered. A quick match.

 

[Bubzeh]

I am excited.

 

[TITS]

What do they mean by "refused to fulfill her contractual obligation"? Does that mean she chickened out or something?

She had some talks of potential. And then her shortcomings were revealed.

This is awesome! I posted this back on 9/13:

Wow, they are really scared of Harrison losing twice in a row if they are giving her Budd. 40 years old and 1-3 in the last 4. I would like to see her fight Aspen Ladd instead.

 

[PurpleStorm]

What do they mean by "refused to fulfill her contractual obligation"? Does that mean she chickened out or something?

Yeah I'm also wondering what that means.

 

[PurpleStorm]

I'm more excited for this one and hoping Ladd has a good showing. Rooting for Ladd and firgure she'll be the underdog here.

 

[jeskola]

Yeah I'm also wondering what that means.

probably weight-related

 

[TITS]

Yeah I'm also wondering what that means.

probably weight-related

Was Kayla vs Budd supposed to be at 145?
