I don't know why people want Cyborg to make 135. Does anyone really give a shit about the title? I mean, the women's division in MMA is too thin right now to have multiple weight classes separated by 10 lbs.

Cyborg vs. Rousey is the fight people want to see. I want to see them both, at their best, going at it in the cage. Demanding that Cyborg make 135 will either a)cause the fight to never happen, or b)weaken Cyborg and her performance severely.

This whole "I'm the champ, come down to my weight class" is just BS. If Rousey doesn't want to fight Cyborg because she is too big and strong, then just say so and let's put this issue to bed. Otherwise... "step up, bitch."

lol so she wants the champion (ronda) to meet her at 140 and defend her (rondas) 135 belt? uhhhhhhh ok.....

Now im not johnny doctor over here but i keep hearing things about here wanting kids and that a weight cut would hurt her chances of having them. 1) Wouldnt taking steroids also hurt those chances or would it not be affected? 2) LOL at anyone that would smash this dude...yes i said dude.

and 3).....



you mad cyroid?

Rousey confused me in the past...

She kept shooting her mouth about fighting anyone, not being scared, regardless of circumstances... etc

than repeatedly said that Cyborg would have to cut down if she wanted to fight her...

Now it is obviously not in her hands, so Cyborg may be forced to move down by the UFC. Lets hope Dolce and Tito can get her down to 135. Although that 10 extra pounds is going to be tough, she was already ripped at 145... Unless she can lose some mass now that she is presumable off the juice.

Cyborg is an absolite beast.
Rhonda has not shown anything aside of judo throws and armbars.

Make the fight at 140, not for the title. No one cares about that chocolate title anyway.

People bash Cyborg because she does not want to fight at 135, but they do not bash Rousey because she does not want to do 145 when she can do it with extreme ease. Make it at 140 then.

Why would the UFC put this fight on at 140 if they only have a 135lb division and they know Cyborg won't be able to ever compete in it. If this fight happens at 140 and Cyborg wins, what happens? She celebrates, then leaves to Invicta or something to fight at 145, while Rousey goes back to 135 as a much less marketable champ.

[H0SS]

Yeah, I can't believe some people think calling out a fighter who fought at your weight class for the majority of their career to again fight at that same weight class is totally ridiculous.

She fought at 145 just two fights ago. Hell, two fights before that she fought a catch weight bought at 150!

Maybe having a 140 lbs division would be smarter. All of 135 pounders could fight in it, as well as the majority of the 145 pounders. I mean, it's not like both divisions are stacked...

[mmawolverine]

i dont see why they cant just make a 145 belt so they can have the fight and even pump rhonda up as a potential 2 division champ, i genuinely believe that cyborg cant make the cut, at this point she would have to lose muscle mass to assist with the weight cut, and please dana for the love of hotties dangle some big bucks and bring gina carano back

[Kimbo> Rampage]

I can see why the UFC doesnt want the fight, atleast with Cyborg at her best...

Rousey peaks more interest... She is good on the eyes, dominant in her own right. While Cyborg is a beast of a women... the only person Iv seen say they wanted to fuck her is RD.

With Rousey its like if GSP started talking shit about Anderson, while refusing to move up or Anderson talking shit about Jones and refusing to go up. If she doesnt want to fight Cyborg... that is understandable, she is bigger has a scary skillset and the most dominate women mma fighter we have seen... Rousey could lose all of her attention she has got... that is all fine... THEN STOP TALKING SHIT.

[BonesKnows]

Ive never seen someone demand so much when they are;

A) Not signed to the UFC
B) Not a Champion
C) Coming off a suspension for steroids

I think thats really funny. As for everyone saying make the fight at 140 let me ask you this, why? Why should the UFC and the Champion come to Cyroid? This girl has more excuses than tito did....ironic that he is her manager. Im sure he has a book of excuses ready for cyroid when ronda snaps that arm if/when she makes the drop to 135
