So it seems like Dana knew what he was doing with Rousey!

It seems like UFC 157 did well,Rousey is the biggest MAINSTREAM ufc star.
She is getting movie deals and poised to make a lot of money for the UFC.
Dana as usual knew what was best i guess even though so many disagreed.

 

[Midnighter]

Tbf, I told him exactly what to do.

 

[Amerikuracana]

Strikeforce already did this with Carano. REMEMBER??

 

[GGNORE]

What did UFC 157 sell

 

[tenniswhiz]

IMO, it's always Lorenzo. Dana is the front man.
Lorenzo knows business.

What did UFC 157 sell

400K plus ppv's according to Dave Meltzer.500k plus a possibility.

Also there are replay buys that would be another 30-40k buys.

Can you honestly imagine Rousey in a movie? I don't know, everyone has their own taste, but her looks don't scream "leading lady" to me. I'm not saying she's ugly, but Gina has a lot more classical Hollywood beauty than her.

 

[ConditFan]

I know what I'd do with her.

 

[Midnighter]

I know what I'd do with her.

Stare at her from a distance while breathing heavily?

This reminds me of when George bush said mission accomplished for some reason

 

[Niten Ichi Ryu]

He knew a brash female getting fed a lamb on the biggest stage would be a big hit.

Nobody's getting either of them to play in serious dramas. They're for "girl power" action movies where they ninja kick a pile of cops and have a love scene.

This,Dana is the face and voice but Lorenzo has the final word and is the brains behind this shit.

i didnt watch it. i dont care about wmma. it's tough to take mma in general seriously lately

i like the idea of mma more than i like watching it nowadays. it's fun to keep up with what's going on without having to sit through the fights

rousey vs opponent is a huge draw? welp

And it works out nice for Lorenzo. He never has to get his hands dirty.

 

[fight4ippon]

I wonder if she will bring in more $$$ than brock did. Didn't Dana say Brock was second to GSP in ppv sales?

The Rousey hype is so annoying. Selling 400 to 500 ppvs isnt all that impressive; thats about average. She looks good fighting the people she's fighting, but its like Royce back in the day. The women are alright but not up to par, they look like amatuers. She can armbar and throw and thats about it, her boxing is garbage. She is an average looking girl AT BEST. She pulled average numbers, good for her (im sure machida and henderson had nothing to do with it) But Dana sitting there saying how she is gonna pull Brock Lesnar numbers was crazy and laughable.
