What about people who have moved down a class to fight, no one ever mentions them.

I don't think they did, Coker didn't want that matchup until both were more established in the US, he said as much after Rogers/Fedor.
Yeah, DC is getting no love.
This 100%. If someone turns a blind eye to this then they are hugging way to far up on the ufc propaganda and weirdo rousy.
Either could make the other's weight given a year. Rousey could put on the ten pounds of muscle she'd need to be the same size as Cyborg, Cyborg could lose the ten pounds of muscle she'd need to be the same size as Rousey. Neither chooses to do so. Again, on both of them.
People putting the onus on one or the other are letting their biases rule their opinions. They're not sisters, neither owes anything to the other. And changing your fit weight by ten pounds (either up or down) is asking a lot.
The difference between thet wo is that Cyborg is willing to lose 5 lbs and make it a 140 catch weight which would be out of the "comfort zone" of both. Ronda is not willing to gain 5 lbs instead,he accepts only at her comfort zone. And this,coming from someone who claims is "always trying to do it like Fedor",who fought guys WAY heavier than him a lot of times,is ridicolous.

Females fighting females on male hormones is more like a female fighting a male.
Males on male hormones are still males.
Female steroid abuse is worse in my opinion.
Sure, that's the only difference. Well...except Cyborg has cheated. By numerous ways, ped's being one.
You kinda forget that.
You also kinda forget that Fedor was fighting in the absolute division, and him fighting fighters way heavier wasn't him aggreing to do so - it was just the way it was.
Just like DC had to move down to fight the UFC champ, Jone Jones; Cyborg has to move down to fight the UFC champ, Ronda Rousey.

Ok but agreeing to fight in the absolute division is agreeing to the possibility of fighting much larger opponents. It's the polar opposite of what Ronda is doing
Fedor could have done the same thing,drop to 205 like Ronda dropped to 135 and claim everyone not doing the same were ducking him.
Sure, he could. Had he been beating everyone at 205.
Fedor was a heavyweight
