Uncle Dana making all kinds of excuses at the post fight presser too...they don't want it, plain and simple. [Reply]

Ronda Rousey has become one of the most popular and profitable fighters in UFC history. Dana is smart enough to know that Cyborg would end the fight within 90 seconds. This would be a huge dent on Ronda's resume, and therefore a dent on the company. It's smart business on his part. [Reply]
"I've said before, I don't care if she's injecting horse semen into her eyeballs, I'll fight her, but that's just my personal decision,"*Rousey*said. "... This girl has been on steroids for so long and [has been] injecting herself for so long that she's not even a woman anymore. She's an 'it.' It's not good for the women's division. It's not good at all ...*"If she comes in the UFC and I beat the [expletive] out of her and then I retire and become an action movie star, then the UFC is still going to be stuck with her. The division could die. She could ruin the whole sport." [Reply]

Lesser fighters than Ronda have lasted 4 fucking rounds in the ring against Cyborg but she's going to knock Ronda out in 90 seconds... [Reply]

Like Rousey, Cyborg makes opponents look hapless in the cage. Like Rousey, she appears to be a force of nature. No one has managed to go the distance with her since 2008. And like Rousey, she ran through the competition this weekend, dispatching poor Charmaine Tweet in just 46 seconds at Invicta FC 11, blasting her with a right hand before swarming with punch after punch for the finish.
At 145 pounds no one can touch her. Since running through Gina Carano in the first major MMA event headlined by women back in 2009, she's finished six consecutive opponents by TKO, although a positive test for the steroid stanozolol clouds those accomplishments in the eyes of some.

But let's bring in WWE wrestlers...hmmm.... [Reply]

So the UFC signed one wrestler known as The Straight Edge Superstar because of his real life avoidance of drugs and alcohol and you feel that will be perceived as condoning steroid use? Do I have this right?
And you feel that is on the same level as signing a woman with a failed drug test and taken so many androgens that if you saw her walking down the street you say there is a 90% chance she is a man or used to be one? [Reply]
