Schaub was recounting that the night Lil Nog fought AJ he saw Lil Nog attempting to warm-up back stage and was shocked that a man that worn down was allowed to fight. Meanwhile, Shogun has taken more power shots in the last 4-5 years than anyone in the sport. Those Hendo fights were ridiculous.

Its a morbid fight.

I haven't checked but I read on another forum that Bethe has never beaten a ranked opponent.

But she beat a couple of Rousey's friends!

Word, I actually like the fight. My post was more to point out how much Rousey has cleared out that division / they need to make the Cyborg fight happen.

Yeah, I'm fine with it too. I mean, I like to see the best fighters challenged and fighting the best, but once they have, I'm cool with watching them style on people until a legit challenger comes up.

I don't think I would know Bethe Correia if she was standing in front of me, but she's undefeated and Ronda seems to want to fight her, so let's do it.

Shogun vs. Lil Nog, on the other hand, I flat out won't watch unless it's announced as their retirement fight.

This is as good an option as any other for someone to keep Ronda busy until Cyborg realizes she has no choice but to drop to 135 or Holly Holm earns a title shot.

Big Nog vs Struve added to this card.

Big Nog vs Struve: loser dies.

Loser should definitely be told that is it for them. Big Nog has lost his last three out of four, and Struve has lost two in a row. This should be the last fight in the UFC for the person who does not get his hand raised.

I think it might be too early to give up on Struve. He's a talented guy, coming off a serious health issue who is still really young. He could turn it around. 100% agree on Big Nog though.

cammo...Struve is 27 and has already been brutally KOed 6 times. Plus he's Dutch who are notorious for lots of striking sparring, the dude is probably already severely brain damaged. He has also had a broken jaw and his heart valve was literally leaking. Finally, he has lost two in a row and hasn't won since 2012.

I try to avoid watching him fight because it makes me uncomfortable.

I haven't been following this but I'm listening to the mmabeat right now and apparently Bethe made some suicide comments about Ronda (for those who don't know, Ronda's dad committed suicide).

Ronda is going to lay such a beating on this chick.

If she's really upset she might let Correia out of the first round so she can hit her more.

I'm thinking of betting all the equity in my house on Ronda at -1200. I see a lot of value there. What do you guys think?

This card is on a Monday?

So that implies about a 92.6% chance for Rousey winning. Which probably isn't high enough. But never bet anything you can afford to lose.
