Oh man did I love tonights TUF fight. Why couldn't it go to a third round, why!?!? That was CRAZY
I'm even crazier about Rhonda Rousey now too, her technique's amazing and she has a great personality.

I can't see how anyone with just a slight hint of objectivity could argue that Henderson didn't win the fight.
Oh well, Edgar is a great competitor and it gives Pettis more time to hone his skills. Pettis must win, you see, so that I can somehow vicariously justify all those years I spent training forms. I know Henderson is from a Korean martial arts back ground as well, but he betrayed us with his guillotines and his wrestling.

I would figure that someone who's actually crazy about her would be able to spell her name right. :P
I don't really have a problem with it, honestly. Edgar had to rematch people a ton to prove himself. He deserves at least one rematch to get his belt back, I suppose.
However, anyone that thinks Bendo didn't win the first fight is wrong. Were it anyone besides Edgar, I wouldn't be cool with a rematch. But it is. Go for it, Frankie.
PAFC Top 10 Finisher in Seasons 1 and 3. 2nd in Seasons 4 and 5. Final 4 in Season 6.
I dunno if rematches should be given based on anything but the actual fight, though. Both the rematches Edgar gave made sense but Henderson giving one just because Edgar had some close fights previously makes little sense when there's so many great LW's out there.
Huh no kidding, I'd been spelling it with an h in her first name this whole time. I should probably do the reading thing more.
If Edgar wins there should be a part 3. I'm just not so sure he deserves a rematch right away like he's getting now, Henderson won that pretty definitively I thought. I hope Frankie gets him but I'm iffy on it, Henderson is a monster.

Cassie just shoved Megan Wright into the cage and overpowered her into a guillotine. Some pretty bad submission defense there.
Smashley smashed Bagherdai and her tiny bagherdai of tricks for three rounds straight. King Mo actually provided good commentary on the wrestling (transitioning from double leg to single leg) and weight cutting (skeletal features show that a fighter hasn't recovered from a weight cut).
Hahah can you spot the typo?
Olympic wrestling medalist debut of Miller. Should be a good fight.
Wow, Estes is defending the takedown with her clinch work and is using the crossface forearm well to set up a shitton of knees.
Holy shit Estes makes a mistake with her armbar attempt and Miller fucks her world up. I can't believe this is going to the 3rd round with the punishment both fighters have been taking.
Estes just plain ran out of steam, and Miller literally hammered out the win. Great fight but Miller has a lot of areas to improve in, surprisingly in the takedown department.
Estes is gasping like she's having an asthma attack.
She needed help getting to her corner between the 2nd & 3rd rounds.
I think she's gonna get finished in the 3rd.
You called it.
It's kinda scary that Miller didn't look that slowed down in the 3rd round despite her feverish pace AND all the knees she ate to the face and body. She didn't look that damaged either.
Maloy seems very technical, Gutierrez just hops around and throws a sloppy punch here and there.
I think Gutierrez threw, 15 strikes all round.
I disagree. I think Gutierrez is the more technical striker, as she's throwing crisp precise strikes while utilizing her footwork. It's just that she's way too scared of the takedown.
Maloy just keeps throwing telegraphed strikes such as Wonderwoman punches.

I don't know, B:L. Her strikes look like they would hit if Gutierrez didn't beat feet every time Malor slightly looked at her funny.

So I take it if Edgar wins they have to have a third fight? Because it isn't like the first fight was controversial.

I am the most objective, and I can objectively tell you that objectively UFC judges suck and it could have gone either way.
I guess it was a shitty hyperbolic qualifier for me to use. UFC judges are blind and dumb as Hell, it's true.
Meh. I hope Bendo whips him again, but not the fight I wanted to see.
However, anyone that thinks Bendo didn't win the first fight is wrong. Were it anyone besides Edgar, I wouldn't be cool with a rematch. But it is. Go for it, Frankie.

Also speaking of women in MMA... well this person I saw today has nothing to do with that.

King Mo is doing a good job on commentary as well.

She was infuriating me. Maloy was throwing some nice stuff. Really good looking round house kick.

Which she did when Maloy came in
Then she backed off WTFFFFFF
I like that Maloy is doing crazy shit because Gutierrez just refuses to engage sometimes.
Edit: Maloy threw, like, 50 strikes to Gutierrez's 10. Booooo
Maloy deserves the win for attempting to have an MMA match.
I did like where they almost KOd each other at the same time.

If Gutierrez wins, I quit.
Edit: Maloy wins. 30-27 was wrong, though.
That would've been the preferred outcome.
Putting each other to sleep after putting the audience to sleep.
Edit: Oh shit, Amy Davis' promo picture makes her look like a female Fabio.
"An impressive 7 wins and 5 losses"
Uhm
Edit: The Jake Shields special!
She nearly landed an illegal knee, too.
C'mon don't diss her impressive 7-5 record.
bleh what is meisha tate teaching this girl
