I really cant believe that they didnt try to stack this card. Hardcore fans may like these fights. But honestly all I objectively see are either no names or mismatches that are going to have 1 sided beatdowns all across the card. The new ranking systems make it look worse, almost no ranked fighters on this card and the ones that are ranked in Top 10 are fighting unranked fighters. They really are banking that Rousey will pull out Jon Jones like PPV numbers. Silva vs Stann Japan Card is WAY more stacked and that one is on Fuel TV....

Card has a bunch of names on it, just a bunch of mismatches except for Hendo/Machida.

Will Liz be able to pull of the upset or will Ronda take another limb home with her?

You're more excited for this than Aldo-Edgar? Are you for real?

I am too actually, we all knew Aldo was winning that fight, and Edgar had no business being in the cage with Aldo.

Ronda by 1st round armbar. Dont see how anybody can predict anything else at this point.

Are we just ignoring octagon jitters for her then? There's no way that she'd be too apprehensive, fighting on the biggest stage of them all? Certainly the biggest fight of her largely untested career. I think nerves will play a much larger role in this fight than people are anticipating.

My question is will she really go out and do an arm bar again even though she's won every fight in that fashion. I'm just thinkin', what if she can't get it. What will she resort to. The only other fighter who won in that sort of fashion was Ken Shamrock and Palhares. Each having their go to submission moves.
That would be sick though if she retired with an undefeated record with all arm bars.
*Note* The reason why I say Cyborg would win is because she would be strong enough to power out if not slam her. It's too bad we gotta wait two years most likely now.

We already seen Ronda not get the armbar. Everyone forgets Tate got thrown and armbared just like everyone else in the opening minute and she got out. Ronda didn't even sweat it she threw her again opened her up with some ground and pound and then finished. So it's not like Ronda has never had to go past her first option.
