For those that don't know, Carl's Jr. is a national fast food chain. In some areas it's branded as Hardees. They have the most delicious 1,000 calorie big chicken fillet sandwich you've ever had at a fast food joint. Hype level is high for the GOAT.



Bonus: Rex Ryan talking about Rousey because why not http://streamable.com/0yb7

 

I'm weirded out by some of you whose entire MMA fandom revolves around 1 fighter.

But CJ's has the best chicken fingers of any fast food joint. My fucking god.

 

Never had the chicken fingers there actually. Will try.

 

Never heard of it

Subway would have been better

 

yup especially after jarod fogle's porn scandal.

 

Poverty fast food joint. Call me when Subways or McDonalds or atleast Burger King endorses. This is Reebok instead of Adidas or Nike again.

 

Well, sounds like there is a marketing use for those judo Ronda pictures after all.

 

CJ's/Hardees locations



I've been to places where no one has heard of it, but it's really common in other areas.

 

This is "Ronda only got bronze" all over again. Salt level on Sherdog is super high, almost as high as fast food. The amount of MMA fans that self-loath success in the sport is wild.

 

Like having a boulder in your stomach after the second. Get a shake if you feel like exploding

 

I wonder how often athletes actually like the crap they endorse?

 

I'm surprised Buffalo Wild Wings didn't grab her up she already says her post fight meal is always Wings

 

Well. Cj Hardee's is god tier for fast food burger chains so assuming she likes burgers this is a pretty premier gig. Plus cj is in the cultural zeitgeist for having high profile spokesmodels. I am interested to see if they take a selfreferencial satire tact.

 

That's a pretty good point. I could see that angle.

 

subway is fucking terrible. carls is like fine eating compared to that.

 

Their bacon cheeseburger is frickin' awesome.

 

Frisco burger is the shit.

 

i thought there was no sponsors allowed under the new reebok deal?

 

You can have sponsors, but generally speaking you can't bring them with you into the cage. This is also an endorsement deal and not necessarily a sponsorship. Endorsement means she endorses their product in commercials, social media etc but they aren't necessarily helping her with costs for anything in her caeer, she just gets paid for her endorsement.
