    Default Dobber's MMA 4 - UFC 184

    Missed doing this the last few months, but life has settled down again and I'm a little more organized. A little. Like...1%.

    Rules are simple. Who's in? If you're not in, I'm gonna come over there and knee you in the face. Then put you in an armbar and ignore your frantic tapping


    Who do you like, which round, and method of decision? 2pts for winner, 1pt for round, 1pt for method - you can only get the 'round' and 'method' points if your winner is correct

    Rousey vs. Zingano
    Pennington vs. Holm
    Ellenberger vs. Koscheck
    Jouban vs. Walsh
    Ferguson vs. Tibau


    Prelims - 1 pt for winner:

    Munoz vs. Cameiro
    Salazar vs. Yamamoto
    Lima vs. Means
    Lewis vs. Potts

    Deadline at 7:55pm ET Saturday

    Good thing I didn't pay for that card lol

    Not to take anything away from Rousey but the women's division is a joke right now. They need more talent before it can be considered legitimately competitive.

    I doubt Roussey's performance has anything to do with performance enhancing drugs, although I suspect your comment was directed to the UFC in general.

    Roussey has the same problem as women's Olympic hockey - a lack of competition. At least in women's hockey, there are two, maybe three teams (although it would take a female version of Miracle on Ice) who can win the gold.

    I'm not a huge fan of women fighting, but if it's entertaining, I'm in. 14 or 16 second fights aren't generally entertaining, well, 14 or 16 second anything's aren't usually good when talking about entertainment.

    It was a more general comment although not many of us were expecting Anderson Silva to fail a test. This is just the way things have gone for UFC lately.

    Ahh. Lol I just noticed this thread. I would have submitted a prediction sheet had I noticed it.

    And on a side note, Blayze is right about the women's side of MMA. The talent is pretty thin. It is getting better, however. It isn't the women's fault, though; it is just so new that they haven't had the time to develop the talent like the men have. It was the exact same thing for the men when the sport was in its infancy. One thing that I will say about the women's side, is that their fights are often the most entertaining fights on the card. What they lack in talent, they often make up for in enthusiasm.

    Someone tried to make an argument that Rousey is the worlds best pound for pound fighter. There’s not enough talent to declare that I think. The girl made a terrible attempt at a flying knee to start things off.

    If I was about to fight RR, I’d just circle the cage for the whole first round. Say screw it, I’ll test her endurance. Even if I lost, I’d at least make it into the 2nd round.
