R3 winning perf bonus is bs

Yes , you don't like Rousey . I don't like her either . But she KTFOd the no2 ranked fighter of the division in just 16 secs.

Now , that's performance of the night worthy
 
Wait, did I miss a fight or two?

From what I saw last night nobody's performance could hold a candle to Ronda's.

The closest thing IMO was Uriah Hall gutting it out on a beyond broken toe, but even then he was never close to finishing his opponent.
 
She beat someone who didn't deserve to be in the cage with her, who was a -1200 underdog, and she earns the performance of the night? Dana finding ways to hype R3 up some more and give her money under the table.

translation from bitchassness to english: I am so butthurt that a ronda is more of a man than i am and i so want someone to beat her but no one can and i want my mommy


:P

lol, that is just what you are coming across as. it may be hard to see this from where you are standing. but it is pretty clear from over here.
 
The fact that people are calling her R3 is even more complete bs. Rowdy isn't really part of her name so why not drop an "R" and call her R2? We could even start calling Jon Jones "J2" while we are being retarded.

this is sherdog. just like real life, people are fucking stupid.

destroying the the number 2 ranked fighter in your division isn't impressive :rolleyes:

her division sucks, bruh
 
Everyone should have known before the event that regardless of the outcome, Rousey was getting it.
 
Now if she could take out Cyborg in 1 round I could see her getting POTN but she beat Davis. In other words she beat someone that was hyped by the UFC as being a contender but was really a pretender.
 
Alexis Davis is a legit top-five 135 who has fought most of the best in that division and beaten a good percentage of them. The gap between Ronda and everyone else is huge, but it's not like Davis was a bad choice among the available options for a title fight. Of the remaining top women that Rousey hadn't beaten, she was certainly one of the best, if not the best.
 
UFC rankings are utter nonsense and used to justify and hype their title shots. People are congratulating R3 for fighting so often and defending her title, but now she's just fighting because the UFC wants to milk the cash cow. If they can't find worthy competition, they'll elevate unworthy fighters to higher ranks to justify feeding them to R3.

If you're going to throw around crap that brings rankings into the discussion, such as whether or not somebody deserves to be in the cage with the champion of a division, prepare to be called out when you're absolutely wrong.

(Some of those are Women's P4P rankings so you have to exclude non-Bantamweight fighters such as Cyborg)

Alexis was consensus Top 5 fighter, none of the ones I've seen have had her below 4 and quite a few had her right under Ronda, including Sherdog's own rankings and Fight Matrix.

Apart from Cat Zingano, who's currently injured, Alexis was the best challenger for Ronda. She's a great fighter, has shown a lot of skill in her previous fights including dominating Liz Carmouche, and she's the only top 5 fighter (again, other than Cat who's injured) that Ronda hasn't beaten already.

Please, explain to me how she's unworthy and who actually IS worthy if the only non-injured, non-rematch top 5 fighter isn't worthy.
 
I ain't a Ronda fan but nobody else had a performance as impressive as hers last night. Complete and utter domination with a classic finish, where her opponent spends more time trying to takedown the ref than her fight lasted.

lol...This.
 
Jim Miller got fucked the worst thanks to RR.

If I was a fighter I'd request to never be on the same card as her. Its pretty much guaranteed she gets all the bonuses.
 
The fact that people are calling her R3 is even more complete bs. Rowdy isn't really part of her name so why not drop an "R" and call her R2? We could even start calling Jon Jones "J2" while we are being retarded.

what is your problem, white knight?
people abbreviate Jones to JBJ all the time. in Ronda's case, that would be RRR, or R3. shake the sand out :icon_lol:
 
Alexis Davis looked like she was in a different weight class with no way to threaten. The odds were -1200 or something, sorry, this was a freak show fight.

When you have a fighter as impressive as Rousey in a shallow weight division the odds will look like that sometimes.

Davis was on a five fight win streak... that gets you a legit shot at the title in my books. Freak show is not a legit description for this matchup.
 
Reliable media guys like Kevin Iole?

No, but they shouldn't get performance bonuses for smashing someone who clearly didn't deserve to be there in the first place (as evidenced by the betting odds).

You're just fucking stupid aren't you?

Wasn't Dillashaw something like a +600 underdog, did he not deserve that fight?

Betting odds dont mean fuck all in terms of whether you deserve the fight.
 
Clearly the UFC is hiding the best female 135ers in Dana's basement.
