They were banger Beatdowns BMy memory might be trash but I remember those two being complete beatdowns instead of bangers?

1. Cyborg vs Amanda
2. Weili vs Joanna
3. Rose vs Andrade
After those there are definitely a few I can list. They’ve already been listed. Lots of great fights.
Kind of weird to title the thread "Bangers" and then TS lists fights like Jedrzejczyk vs. Penne / Rousey vs. Holm / Shev / Grasso 2.
JJ beat the piss out of Penne, broke her whole shit with little resistance. Holm put a kickboxing/anti-grappling clinic on Rousey and head-kicked her into oblivion. Shev basically just took down and controlled Grasso for 90% of the fight (pieced her up for the first minute or two and then realized she could just get takedown entries unchallenged so went that route).
Amanda sparked Cyborg in the first round after the first real pocket exchange - it's a crazy highlight reel finish, but when I think of "Best Fights/Bangers" there needs to be back and forth mauling/momentum swings or else it's just a shit-kicking.
All very entertaining fights though - I just don't think there should be titled "WMMA Bangers" to be a nit-picking asshole that I am.
Banger = good shit, fun or awesome. Don't get stuck on the details.

Wrds have meanings, otherwise this is all just gobbledygook.
"Banger" has always referred to a brawl i.e. two fighters going back-and-forth beating the shit out of each other (it can still have a finish, but needs to have both fighters putting a beating on each other) - it's never referred to one-sided shellackings (JJ/Penne or Ronda/Holly), lighting quick finishes (Nunes/Cyborg), or paint-drying lay-and-pray decisions (Shev vs. Grasso 2).
Like I just said, I'm a nit-picking asshole.

The majority of Jessica Andrade's fights.
She's the closest thing to Wanderlei Silva since he reitred.

Indeed you are a nit-picking asshole.
i remember this. Norma may not finish fights generally but she has some power and accuracy.
Shes also packing
