    thoughts on an all women PPV? I wouldn't mind it but I wouldn't want it to become a habit.

    Possible card:
    Rousey vs Holm
    Jedrzejczyk vs Gadelha
    Tate vs Nunes
    Eye/Pena vs Zingano
    Torres vs Waterson

    If Cyborgs an option then:
    Rousey vs Holm
    Jedrzejczyk vs Gadelha
    Tate vs Cyborg
    Eye/Pena vs Nunes
    Torres vs Waterson

    Possibly the worst idea since Abraham Lincoln said "I'm tired of sitting around the house tonight, let's go take in a show."

    They should throw a major HW fight on there.

    JDS vs. Overeem under Rousey and Joanna Jerk-a-whatever.

    And the casuals will show their powers by making it a better PPV than UFC 194.

    Much butthurt to be had. Happiness abound.

    Any reason why? Ronda alone will sell the card and then you throw in another title fight and the biggest names in wmma.

    People on here would whine about how shit it is and how it will ruin MMA. Shortly after, we'd find out that it did a million PPV buys.

    Why not. Making it more easy to skip it.

    Depends on how it would turn out to be. Looks good on paper IMO, but we need to experience it.

    Until then, I would be excited for the card. At least for the first try

    Without Ronda, it would be on Fight Pass...and called Invicta.

    Ronda alone will sell the card to casual fans who've only heard of Rousey and McGregor. The "biggest names in wmma" are a joke compared to mid-tier male fighters skillset-wise. A card like this would be taking a dump on MMA fans who know what their watching. WMMA is nowhere near strong enough on its own yet.

    Not sure if the UFC is ready to make that step.

    Not sure if the UFC will ever do that... because of "equality" purposes.

    I would personally buy a all female card.

    I doubt it will be, but if I was gonna make an all WMMA card it would be something like:

    Rousey vs Holm
    Joanna vs Gadelha
    Tate vs Nunes
    Torres vs Waterson
    Calderwood vs Markos

    Do you even buy cards in the first place? Because those mid-tier male fighters aren't selling ppvs. And if not, why does the UFC owe you anything?
