- Sorry guys but it ain't for me. I guess I only like "big fights" when it comes to the ladies. You guys know I watch them fight when I can and don't hate it, but I still don't think the competition isn't at a high level. I was hyped up for Gina vs Cyborg but after seeing a cute chick get beat like that made me think Gina should give it up. I am not buying the comeback and I don't care for this fight.
Oh did I mention she is fighting a can? I don't care what some forum said about this chick. Gina shouldn't be fighting a noob if this is the big comeback. Give her a known name on this card and I wouldn't have as much of a problem. Gina was hanging in there until Cyborg turned it up. You think just because she wasn't able to beat Cyborg she shouldn't be fighting? You seem to imply that Gina was a fake? Comparing her to Kimbo then saying she needed to quit after being exposed? Then I guess Thiago Alves should go ahead and retire because he will never beat GSP or Fitch. Tons of other WW and MW out there need to hang them up too I guess. Gina is probably still a top 5 woman's fighter in the World. You are totally down playing what skills she has. She is more then just a pretty face.
She gained popularity by having her good looks and I only compared the popularity factor of her and Kimbo. Since Gina is on the main card for her comeback fight she should be atleast fighting a known fighter imo.
BTW what is that in your sig? I know it's probably GOW but what's going on in the sig? It was because she was hot AND kicking ass. You seem to be leaving that last part out, the part where she actually has fighting skills. Oh and yes it is GOW, it is an execution. The guy is ripping the arm off and beating him with it. It's much better when you keep it going, you can beat them a good 10 times or so with the arm. | |

| I thought maybe it was actually you playing against someone here maybe.
Wolf just because I am not as up to date on WMMA doesn't make me an idiot. I don't like it as much, and I could care less for this fight is all. Just because you like it more doesn't make you the grand genious of the board. Gina is the face of womens MMA and I know she has skill. I admitted that I could be wrong about who Gina has faced. I still think most of her fights were cans no matter what stats you post. I don't think she will ever be champion or be on the level of Cyborg and she is fighting someone I have never heard of. This fight is crap imo and just because you use fightwiki to show me some stats where some can beat up some other can doesn't mean jack shit. Gina is fighting some up and comer for her first fight back to help get her back into the limelight. Great for ratings, yeah. Great fight for the fans, NO! If WMMA had enough professional talent Zuffa would be all over it. 90% of the women fighter's are amatuer's when compared to the Men's talent level. That is a fact jack. You can keep your opinion and I will keep mine. You can look up stats to justify what you're saying and I will keep agreeing with Dana White. | |

Dana has always said Gina had skills and he'd love to promote her. Also, this fight was signed and delivered after Strikeforce was purchased. So you can sit back and pretend you're agreeing with someone on something while they actually promote this fight and make tons of money off her being on the main card. Zuffa owns Strikeforce and as such are promoting this fight. Zuffa is on board with WMMA. Dana agrees with the rest of us that Gina is a good fighter worthy of the main card. You're conveniently ignoring facts. They are cans, but when shown to be top level WMMA fighters, they're not as good as men suddenly and as such still cans to you, no matter what. You're trying to make the world fit your view that you don't like WMMA and as such you distort the facts to fit your view as opposed to objectively looking at the fighters and forming an opinion. When the facts challenge your view, you just ignore them. It's somewhat sexist. Not that I blame you. Got some female anger issues these days I am sure brother. Hugs@BBC. Brolove dude. | |

I'm not ignoring the facts. I see them, beleive them, and agree with them as facts. That doesn't change my stance on the talent level of WMMA and I don't think that is sexist. I don't watch womens college bball because the talent level isn't as good as the men. It just isn't my cup of tea. DW is using Gina just like Kimbo. It's dollar signs to him and at the end of the day he knows WMMA is just to new and there isn't enough competition to go balls deep into the sport and promote it. No need to get personal because I can see where you are going with this wolf. Someone doesn't agree with you so you twist it to make fun of them. "bbc doesn't like WMMA because his ex-wife was getting banged by 5 black guys so he has womens hate issue's" right? C'mon now son. | |

| Just saying. I know that is one of your favorites to use on me. Maybe you usually say 3-4 guys but you know what I mean.
Okay I know I am wrong guys. I will admit that. You know I am stubborn when it comes to things. I will admit I am 80% wrong but you guys are gonna settle outta court being 20% wrong.
PS- I hope Gina gets KO'd by that can. HA HA! | |

| If there is a valid criticism is that this girl is a sub specialist and not a striker. But then again most strikers in MMA are inferior to Gina including the heavily pedigreed Eliana Maxwell.
Another criticism is that she is coming off a loss as were most of Gina's opponents when they fought, but regardless they were all still top fighters.
This girl is a legit 145'r though. | |

| - Quote :
- UFC President Dana White has made bold statements about women in MMA over the past seven or eight years, with every one of them softening a bit and bit more. White met with several of the Strikeforce fighters including champions Cyborg Santos and Marloes Coenen at the Zuffa Summit in Vegas a few weeks ago with positive responses. Zuffa has made a valiant effort to get better promotional videos and photo shoots done for them as well.
White did an interview with the Forbes Sports Money show on the YES network recently, and finally clarified his stance. Although you won't see women in the UFC right away, the door maybe open soon.
"I don't have a problem with women fighting," White states. "As (women's MMA) continues to grow, if there are more and more women where you can create an entire division with a lot of talent women, I am all about it" http://www.fightergirls.com/news.asp?ID=712 | |

| Yeah he put on a good show didn't he. I can tell when DW is full of it and saying things to sound good. I will beleive it when I see it. Just more fighters are needed. That's why he should keep SF around. There is a future for the sport though, just needs more fighters. | |

| So Dana is lying but in the end womens MMA needs more fighters and that is what Strikeforce is for? Wait isn't that what Dana had just said in the fucking first place?
Again, look at this mofo discounting whatever facts disprove his opinion. | |

I am going by the way he acted when asked about it in the interview. I watched it the other day and that's what I remember anyway, or I came away thinking, "Yeah right Dana" What I think is that if we start to see alot of great womens fighters I would hope he would keep SF for that purpose. Kinda a minor league for men and a pro division for women. | |
