Is it odd that this would be in my top 3 most anticipated fights?

Can't find any sources myself, but yeah this fight would be crazy. I have completley no idea why, but I'm WAR CYBORG!
EDIT: Sherdog guys say it was a hack, and they're always reliable.

I know it's the 'money fight', but I'm surprised Dana would risk Ronda catching a severe beat down in her first UFC outing. Rousey is more marketable than swamp thing. If women's fighting is going to be more of a special attraction, I admit I'd protect Rousey, lol.
Presuming this isn't complete BS that is.

RT @arielhelwani: Apparently UFC Brazil site briefly had a story stating Rousey-Cyborg @ 157, but DW just told me that isn't official & the story is now gone.

If it ends up being true, prepare to see some of the worst PPV numbers in UFC history. If I'm wrong I'll eat crow, but I doubt I'm wrong!

There's no way the UFC is gonna let Cyborg put a beat down on their only star in the womens division. Hell, it's not even a division. Might as well start calling it the Ronda division.
Unless they think Ronda is only going to be good for one show. Then this fight makes sense.

Yeah there is NO chance she faces Cyborg in her first fight, or even while Cyborg is still smashing her opponents.

Sarah McMann is the more interesting fight to me. Cyborg is over in a minute either way. Cyborg survives the throw and armbar and tkos Honda or Honda get the sub. Mcmann actually offers another high level grappling background and an ability to keep it on the feet.
