She should seriously just own it. She got beat, time to come back and show what you're made of.

I'd say if she didn't have a film career and fashiony stuff going on she wouldn't have bothered. It's probably nothing more than a broken nose or some cheek damage.

I'm still blown away that she's actually dating Travis "possible beats women" Brown.

thx Candy that article is great. I've never understood people rating Ronda's stand up at all, she looked like an untrained person flailing in her previous fight and got absolutely owned by someone who really was able to execute the gameplan near perfectly. I don't understand the hate either, eventually in MMA you are going to lose, no matter how good you are eventually someone will get a lucky shot in.

Waiting for videos to surface of this rumoured one punch knockout in the opening seconds.

Found a gif. Bad luck stumbling and getting the smash on the floor. An easy $7 million for the winner. :lol:

*Aldo v McGregor spoiler*




Bad luck stumbling? Aldo over-reached and left himself open. Aldo's punch actually landed, but not before he was knocked out.

I have a bonda-fide man-crush on Conor McGregor.

t0mby, you should watch this season of TUF. McGregor comes across as a great coach. He offers some real good advice to his fighters and you can see that come across in their fights. Then you see him do exactly what he says to his team in his fight against Aldo and it works. The guy is a legitimate fighter and deserves his win. He is so damn good.

McGregor won this before it even started, he was in Aldos head.

Rafael dos Anjos pulls out of title fight vs Conor McGregor. Jose Aldo says no to subsequent offer for rematch.

It's a great matchup but not as good as RDA. Short notice also means not enough time to generate enough trash talk, which should be epic between these two. Weaksauce Aldo rejecting it after all his recent talk. Surely anyone who gives a fuck has to be ready for circumstances just like this - it happens so often these days. Big risk for McGregor & UFC but should be a good one to watch. Gotta admire McGregor for staying true to his word and pretty much taking on anyone.

That was a bizarre fight (Spider vs Bisping). Silva should've put him away, but strangely I probably would've scored it for Bisping as well. Weird.

Silva is his own worst enemy. If he didnt get bisbing with the knee when herb dean distracted him hr wouldnt have won round 3. I though round 5 silva would move to put i away knowing he was most likely down 3 out of 4 rounds but no.

Pretty unflinching from Nate Diaz casually calling out the UFC for rampant steroid use during the UFC 196 press conference. Not that steroids wouldn't be rampant in the UFC.

Bisping won 3-2, Silva is a retard who is also done. Please retire and take Dan Henderson with you.

Bisping would have won easier if fkn Herb Dean didn't distract him. The first time he looked away it was his own fault the 2nd time Dean clearly motioned like he was holding up the fight to give him his mouth guard and then bam he gets a knee to the head.

Silva, if he just stopped fartassing around could have won but he is too busy trying to make some showreel obscure elbow\knee\kick\punch knockout.

Diaz isn't in the same class as McGregor so I would expect Connor to continue his roll.

Dana White is having a very bad day.

Here's how MMA works - you think you know, but really you don't.
