Bryan Callen paid bernman and cbr to argue with each other for a few pages to distract from the fact that he is involved in pizzagate.

Smartass. Bet you'd believe this if CNN reported it.

UFC plans to add women's featherweight division ‘whether it's with Cyborg or not'

Umm, ok. And 3 of the top 5 on Fight Matrix are in Bellator (though I don't know contract status).

I think its the Kermit sipping tea thing. Where a general statement is made with the insinuation that you're actually minding your own business after making the statement.

That Kermit sipping tea thing is like a meme empire at this point.

Without Cyborg, less valid than the men's interim flyweight title.

Is this from the new management? Because adding the division after years of insisting Cyborg has to make 135 (granted that may have been largely protecting Rousey)/140 it doesn't make much sense to add this when 125 is deeper and would fill in the hole between divisions. And what's the rush of all of sudden to have two 135ers fight for the 145 title, that they can't wait for Cyborg?

Here's another article, I don't know who to believe, the UFC or Cyborg.

I just have no idea why I'm supposed to care about this division. There are only two fighters in the division. Has Holm fought at 145? Not sure where her pre-UFC run took place. Regardless, she was soundly beaten in her last fight and put to sleep the fight before that. The other girl - not sure I've ever seen her fight but she has a 6-3 record, is 1-1 in the division and hasn't fought there since 2012?

And the winner of this fight is going to hold UFC gold? LOL.

Should have built 125.

And she got beat by a clear 125er in her last fight.

Make both divisions. Cyborg and Shevchenko are legit championship level fighters. Then Joanna Champion can challenge for two belts.

It's C.M. Punk in the UFC level of B.S.

Let's say Holm wins this. How often has a ufc champion come off a losing streak in a lower division? I realize guys have went up divisions and been beaten and it hasn't tarnished them much (nobody cared that Penn lost at WW when he was LW king, e.g.). But how often has a champion came off a losing streak in a lower class? It would seem weird if Dominic Cruz was still BW champ but went down and lost to Mouse and Benavidez for example. Or Stipe had a failed LW run but still was HW champ or something. IDK just feels weird.

Belts don't matter anymore.
