Why is Hardy vs Spivak On the Main Card of UFC 272 over Rodriguez vs Yan Xiaonan?

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

That's fair, but Yan is a much less exciting fighter. Spivak vs Hardy has a fun sloppy brawl written all over it so I understand why it is getting the PPV treatment though.

She is? Did you see what she did to Karolina?

More than enough time between fights for that. How long does it take people to smoke/shit?

20-30 min for me personally, so like 15 min of fighting and 10 in between

Hardy is popular???

I had no idea.

Popular. Infamous. Same thing if you go by the saying that there is no such thing as bad press. Plus Hardy will look for the ko. So fuck it.

I am 100% more interested in seeing Marina hopefully earn her title shot.

Why would someone advocate for WMMA being on the main card of a PPV?



If the UFC wants my hypothetical money I'm not paying, they better keep it the way it is.

 

[CC27]

think this might be Hardys last fight on his contract, could see him going bare knuckle or something next.

Get rid of him, frankly tired of hearing everyone cry about this guy everytime he's on a card.

Sounds like they have nothing to worry about then.

hardy and spivak will probably end with a finish

Because WMMA is even more awful than HW MMA

You shouldn't be surprised

 

[TempleoftheDog]

Literally.. What is with the whining about placement on the cards?? Are you going to change it? Maybe somebody should take to social media and perhaps get a different placement like that clown Alex H? Lot of fucking good that did him.

Being on the prelims will get you more views than being on the main card of a ppv. How is that even debatable in 2022? If you aren’t getting ppv points. More people will see you on the prelims, and that should be your goal.

Bc one is wmma.

Perfect gif. Summed up entire WMMA in 10 seconds.

I bet Hardy has more than both ladies combined

Card placement isn't about skill level it's about popularity

And weight.

The UFC will happily put big sloppy HWs on main cards even if they're nobodies. It's been very annoying for years now.

Lol the top Strawweight contenders are certainly better than Hardy.

Hardy would finish them both 1 v 2 in under 10 seconds

 

[Dorkman]

Hardy is a name of some sort. Those other two, aren't really.

 

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

Hardy would finish them both 1 v 2 in under 10 seconds

And that's relevant how?

 

[Dreyga Hates You Sherbums]

Hardy would finish them both 1 v 2 in under 10 seconds

Now you are just being unfair.

If the argument is who more skilled Marina and Yan are by a country mile.

Now it comes off you hating on the fighters just because they are women

 

[BjPenn2017]

UFC finally got the memo wmma is shit

 

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

Hardy would finish them both 1 v 2 in under 10 seconds

Like the fact that he's big and strong has nothing to do with the fact he's a terrible martial artist lol. He is not better than either of them. He doesn't have half the skill either of them have.

You said they were better than him

Meanwhile in WMMA, head and arm throws dominate...
