wtf happened to WMMA

[aogiri]

I like strawweight and Flyweight. Prospects like Erin and Natalia Silva are adding talent to the division.
Bantamweight is utter trash. Never cared for it.

This era makes me appreciate Ronda, Nunes and Cyborg more. Genuinely looked forward to their fights.

I remember when Nunes vs Zingano happened and I told my wife "they'll fight like hell because WMMA doesn't have legitimacy yet" and sure enough they fought like hell like the legitimacy of the sport depended on it. The WMMA fights back then were great.

And now we have this. Lackluster fights I can't bring myself to care about. A 15-9 person waging a lackluster fight against a lackluster contender for the undisputed title.

Don't ever tell me the sport has evolved and that is was soccer moms back when Ronda was in charge. This is ridiculous. I hate it being the co-main knowing nothing will happen and it'll just delay the main event.

The flyweight and straw weight got alot going on.

For some reason those scrappy BW women got old and didn't inspire any younger version to take their place. It's weird because there's alot of money there for the taking being the next Amanda/Rhonda/Holm.

I don't know what happened to WMMA as a whole, but the Canadian chicks proved that they're tougher than Canadian guys.

WMMA has evolved into its final form tonight

 

[Bret 'The Hitman' Hart]

Like most female-only sports, WMMA is of inferior caliber and sucks.

Matt Brown say he'd pay to watch women fight if they are topless

I wouldn't pay.

But I might watch.

I wouldn't pay.

But I might watch.

Same, only if De La Rosa is fighting. I am all eyes

They've had some real good fights, but this one today for a title was shite. They shouldn't have given either fighter the belt as it was such a snooze fest.

This is what it was about the whole time. Strickland tried to fight against it, but they won.

Every women's division only has a few good fighters. It was that way back when the divisions were new, and frankly it doesn't seem to have improved much in the years since.

 

[West_Hammer]

You can’t use last nights fight as an example because fighters like Pennington have been around since the start, and still fight the way they always have, and they’re winning titles. Watch Zhang vs Yan at 300, that’s the evolution of WMMA.

 

[Contempt]

Early in the WMMA fights really did seem to steal the show more often than not but then the novelty wore off. That's what happened. The novelty wore off. Now we just see it for what it is - shit level professional fighting.

That's how most of us always viewed it.

 

[BearGrounds]

Jasudavicius v Cachoiera - Finish after multiple submission attempts and chain grappling.

Robertson v Viana - Finish after a beatdown. Solid grappling exchanges.

Two out of the three WMMA fights were solid, one was boring. This, to biased knuckleheads, means that all of WMMA is terrible and it's dying. That's like judging all of MMA after watching Ngannou v Black Beast, and ignoring all other men's fights on the card. SMH.

 

[Starman]

It’s garbage and always has been. Just glad to see some of you retards finally being forced to admit it.

 

[BearGrounds]

If you enjoy watching women fight there is something wrong with you in the first place

Why, exactly?

[checktheknuckles]

Women's MMA is so lame. Who honestly wants to see this garbage?!?

 

[ExitLUPin]

This happened just last month.... But it was an outlier. 98% of WMMA is horrific to watch but there are few gems. Not worth sitting through all the shite tho

 

[Marko Polo]

I’ve been watching Pennington put stinkers on for like 10 years. It blew my mind the other day when I first read she was in a title fight
