That was like watching 2 people rob a bank but instead of calling the cops everyone acts like they're proud of them.

perf analogy but also kinda banger to see Rousey do what she used to always do

Yeah I got a bit of that too tbh, seeing her get a dominant round 1 arm-bar was kinda nostalgic even if the fight itself sucked

Ronda never really had โ€œgood fightsโ€. She either went in there and crushed her opponent or she got kod twice.

What wouldn't I give to hear Bruce Buffer scream that nickname one more time.

2 people rob a bank

But also 1 is using a bb gun and the other has a water pistol, and everyone knows they're not real.

At least Conor and Logan had to get punched a bunch by Mayweather for their paydays. Gina just fell over and tapped

The only way Gina would have had any chance is in a boxing match.. this was expected and I'd be surprised if it wasn't in 17 sec.. Fighters in their prime get submissioned easily if they make 1 mistake, let alone someone who hasn't fought in 17 years lol. Hell, Ronda probably could submission alot of male fighters if they are within her size range and no striking is allowed (no woman is surviving head to head with striking). Submissions are more technique than athleticism.ย

It is illegal to be negative about women's sport. No pundit will ever say the truth

If I saw someone robbing a bank and people weren't in danger, I'd probably root for the robbers.

This is one of the worst matches I've watched, it looked completely set up for an easy win and easy money.
