That's a STYLE?!
It really looked like no one taught her to keep her wrist straight.
There should be a little bit of twist at the end, makes for more of a pop on the receiving end.

Get rekt Ronda. Hopefully Nunes takes her down.
I can't see her coming back if she loses again. She has never been good at dealing with losses. She doesnt have to do it for the money anyway.

She probably will, if we're going by her latest training videos. I can't believe how Ronda has stuck with a shitty coach like Edmund Traverdyan.
Anything can happen in MMA though.
Ronda better take this to the ground or Nunes is going to fucking light her up:

Edmund may suck, but why would you completely switch coaches / camps when you got so far with them. Some of the most respected coaches still have fighter go out and get completely embarrassed. Look at Eddie/Henry as a good example, and jackson/wink still couldn't save Holly from losing 2 in a row and killing all the post Ronda hype behind her.

I too think Ronda is finished. I'm afraid she is completely rocked. Does she have any confidence left? That is what makes so much of the difference. It's what got her so far. So much of fighting is psychological.

I hope Ronda destroys this woman. Nunes is too ugly to be a champ.

A good coach wouldn't have told the judo/grappling expert to go in there and try and stand and bang with the 18 time women's boxing champion.
It's one thing for a fighter to buy into their own hype but a good coach/team should try and keep them grounded, not buy into it right along with them. Edmund is a hack. Look at what's happened to Ronda's BF since switching to him.

The main event line is too close to be worth it. I'd put my money on Rousey though.
The two locks of the main card are both Cruz and Killashaw imo.

I got my "beauty killed the beast" post ready already. Go Honda, you a star.

Nah, I'd love to see Ronda get creamed again but Nunes seems tailor-made for a quick armbar finish.

I'm not super invested in either fighter, but I sure hope Nunes wins - for the good of the division and women's MMA as a whole.
Cruz is a great defensive fighter if you're into that sort of thing, myself I prefer the Garbrandt type of Just Bang, Bro. Outside the ring it's reversed, so I've got mixed feelings about that one.

Based on her Fast/Furious performance, she acts about as well as she boxes.
Won't happen anymore since cyborg just got popped by USADA for banned substances. She'll be suspended for at least a year.
Then she can't be on the cover of ring magazine.

Beauuuutiful champ
No ruling has been made yet. A bit premature.

I don't care how much money she could make the company they shouldn't let her fight if she won't promote.
UFC ain't gonna cancel the main event 3 days out over something like this. Ronda is exercising her leverage knowing that. I can't be mad at an mma fighter using what little leverage they have, especially now when the UFC is involved.

I don't disagree with anything you said, but I just don't think coaching is something you replace easily. And Ronda got the clinch in the Holly fight several times, she just couldn't do anything with it.

I think ronda is winning don't see her risking and going for standup like the fight against holly. After this bet their gonna have her go for the new title for a superfight against holly.

If Ronda loses at least she'll have a paycheck of being the only person allowed to give Stephanie McMahon her comeuppance in a mixed tag with the Rock against her and Triple H.
This PPV is also being broadcast in 4K.
If you order the HD version, I believe you get the 4K version as well.
Sony 4K TV (2015/16) owners can download an app labeled UFC 207 4K I believe.
and just found out last night Directv Owners with a Directv 4K Ready TVs or some other Directv Genie 4K device... will also be able to Order it.
I've never done the Directv route, but I'm going to try. My cousin has a 65" LG C6, so it should be compatible. He has an older genie, but I read that since he has a Directv 4K Ready TV...it should still work.

Rest
All these years later I still chuckle at what a fucking moron that guy is.
Wait, post loss? Why?

pretty soon the fight wont even be broadcast

Torsional force can cause a little extra soft tissue damage, but not the way she's doing it.
Those punches... I think I've seen toddlers throw better punches. There's no form, no power, no aim...
Damn SO many people underestimating Ronda.
I've followed Amanda Nunes' career since the early part of her career..
used to have a crush on o'l girl.
And I'm obviously rooting for her.
THAT all being said, I'd never count out Ronda...just because if she ever grabs you...there is a high chance she is going to drop you...and from there her instincts take over.
Amanda could be lighting her up, but if she gets too close...I'd still be worried.
If Ronda rematched Holly, I'd probably take Ronda...unless it's K1 Ronda shows up.
