Ronda, Cyborg, Holm and Tate are all in the UFC and they make Meisha VS Nunes? WTH

Wait am I missing something? I thought holly was getting the rematch?
 
I guess Honda isn't red-carpet ready just yet. Three months is not enough time for Honda to cut down from 170 to 135.
 
Tate ducked Miesha.

Seriously tho, I agree with TS. THIS is the female fight you make for 200!?!?? Who cares about Nunes???
 
Isn't Amanda Nunes ranked #3? She's a bad ass. So STFU

Easy pickins for Tate, imo. The UFE wants her to have the belt for Ronda's return. DFW is making sure of it.
 
Should be a fight with a lot of action. A Tate/Holm rematch could be dull as shit with Holm being even more cautious than in the first match. Rousey won't be ready by UFC 200 and Cyborg can't cut to 135. I wonder who Holm fights next - Alexis Davis? Or Zingano if she wins her next fight?
 
It's a rare example of excellent matchmaking.
 
People seriously counting out Nunes? Tate isn't a god.

Nunes is bigger, longer, and has more power plus better striking overall. She's also a brown belt in Judo and black belt in BJJ. She's known to gas but she's tough as hell. Tate has her hands full, especially in the first two rounds.

This IS good matchmaking.

If you meant the thread started on here earlier, that was some fool that quoted Dana White when it was a Yahoo reporter speculating it could be Holly.
 
No. This was the fight that should have been made. For once.
 
Who's Frankie the Edgar Answer fighting again?
 
What's hard to understand? Ronda is supposedly busy with movies. Cyborg needs a fight to get the casuals aquatinted with her before she gets a bigger star as an opponent. Holm, well, they want the belt around Ronda, and Miesha is still an easier opponent for Rotunda than Holm. Also, people are bitching about rematches.

I would way prefer Holm over Nunes, but Nunes does have the longest Win streak among the top ten.

Sorry, I don't live and breathe low-skilled 135lb wmma.

Ronda and Meisha are the only real draws and that mostly for causal noobs. I only care about seeing Holly or Cybord beating Rondas face in (again), and judging by the number of threads after Ronda lost, I'm amongst the majority. This thread will bring the 30 wmma fans at me though, I am aware.
