No comments from this past weekends card? I thought it was fantastic. Worthy of a PPV, which I thought before seeing the fights.

UFC 190 is not worth a PPV. You have TUF Brazil finale, Nog brothers and the Rousey fight on this card. If it wasn't for Rousey I wouldn't even watch this card if it was free. Looks like I will be downloading this one on Sunday.

I only caught the last two fights. I wouldn't have paid to watch that card and definitely won't be buying 190. Some has beens and a chick fight main event? No, thanks.

Rousey deserves the headliner. But yes to the rest of what you are saying.

[autiger730]

I mean, obviously she should be the headliner, but at this point I just don't care about women's fighting. She's on a different level from everyone else. The gap is so wide between her skill level and anybody else, it's almost incomprehensible.

[DRiccio21]

the only reason Rousey deserves to be a headliner is because UFC has done a great job marketing her.

her fights suck, she is vastly better than everyone she fights and the only reason you tune in is to see if 'this is the time it's different'. not much different than Mayweather except she actually puts forth action for the 40 seconds she's in there.

I enjoy watching her destroy people, but unless the rest of the card is stacked, I'm not paying $60 to watch it. I'm never tuning in to see if she is going to lose. It just isn't going to happen. She can only beat herself by getting lazy. I don't see that happening anytime soon. Cyborg is literally the only woman with a shot and that's only because she's juiced to the gills. I don't think she can make 135 though.

So would you say Mike Tysons fights sucked in the 80's early 90's? This is the same domination he displayed in his prime.

This is by far one of the worst cards in recent memory. A TUF finale doesn't belong on PPV. I am looking forward to the Neil Magney fight though. He has been beast mode since leaving TUF.

As sad as it sounds, the only one to give Rousey a fight is Tate. And she has lost 2 times to her.

.

They were dominating no doubt, but they weren't good "fights"

i guess, but not really.

Tyson was the equivalent of a Lion stalking then taking down his prey.
Rousey is like a snake that raps you up and then destroys you.

both are dominating but one is way more fun to watch.

I agree, but I am sure we disagree on who is more fun to watch. The problem with the womens BW division is that there is nobody that can compete with her, and i don't see that changing for at least a couple of years from what I have seen in Invicta.

[DRiccio21]

wait so you think Rousey is more entertaining than Mike Tyson?

you're certainly entitled to your opinion but that's crazy talk.

I have been SO turned off by boxing these past couple of years, it's hard for me to say anything nice about boxing. So with that being said, I'd rather put money down to watch her fight over Tyson.

Rousey is so great

[jsence2]

Terrific card, capped by Rousey showing what happens when you bring up her family. She had no intention at all of ending that fight via submission. She wanted a KO, and damn did she get it.

[ReignOnU]

That card... was not terrific.

[autiger730]

Not even close.

Lots of action, some great fights, and Shogun/Rousey got wins. And it was free. It was great to me

[GeorgesGoons]

100% agree

Loved the face plant of the pit bull. I think that left hook to the body and the knee to the body was really the end of that fight, you saw it in her face she didn't want to fight anymore.

The rest of the card was just meh for me. Loved seeing Struve get back in the win column

In more exciting news.....the Diaz bros. have been banned from all WSOF events after their involvement in a brawl in the casino lobby.

Just saw that as well.

I'm gonna have to download the Shields fight to see how long pulhares held the Kimura and see the punch after the bell from shields
