    Nunes and Shevchenko should just be fighting each other every 6 months, it's unfortunate for their divisions that they're so far ahead of anyone else.

    How much longer til Kayla is in the UFC. Might be the only one capable of giving Nunes a fight. What a champion, phenomenal fighter

    This poster nailed it

    Good because I agree with all that, I don't agree with pretending you are hurt or don't know the rules.

    Even at an such an elite level, sometimes you'd just have to know that you have very little chance against an opponent and that was the perfect example of same.

    At one stage Anderson got stuck in the mud and froze as Nunes was piling it on.

    Proper deer in the headlights stuff.

    I thought her knee was gonna go at one point. Her legs were completely gone from under her.

    Animal, 2 minute demolition job.

    Shevchenko rematch is all thats left really and I don't even think thats worth it now

    That's the only fight I want to see now. Schevchenko vs Nunes is the only obvious outcome now.

    Anderson
    Amanda seemingly wants to see the Izzy Jan fight as much as us she didn’t hang around fair play to her


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭US2


    Was Joe rogan trolling when he asked for the 145 rankings


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,150 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    Boggles my mind how the UFC don't have Nunes on every tv show, every chat show, every web series, guest starring on sitcoms.........

    She could be their biggest star. I know she's miles above everyone but look at her. She's charismatic, she's openly gay, she's a new mother, she can sub people, she knocks them out........ she should be a household name!

    Hopefully everyone was realistic and they're ready to go asap. Waiting on Blachowicz KO/TKO to go to bed happy. :pac:

    You just know Henry Cejudo is watching this thinking "I could take her on".

    :D

    Anderson

    Even then Nunes has beat her twice. Could say the second fight was close but hard to make a third fight when it’s already 2-0.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,357 ✭✭✭BrentMused


    Oh God, I see the "could she beat some of the men on the roster?" talk has started.

    Nunes is absolutely amazing but come on, we've been here before. You'd think the likes of Luke Thomas would know better. :rolleyes:

    Have to agree. Seems like an honest wonderful person.

    Just an amazing athlete to boot.

    You seem to be dragging this on. Some people had a different opinion than you, going by this thread its around 50/50.. Matt Hamil fan id say. Grow up move on.

    Would she beat Petr Yan? No.

    Are there men currently signed to the UFC that she could beat? Absolutely

    With the way Nunes fights she could probably drag Cejudo into the deeper waters.

    Nunes vs Cruz next for the laugh? There's your massive PPV Dana. It's basically a circus already, might as well embrace it at this point :pac:

    And Cub Swanson. It's a fun thing to joke about but it terrifies me that some genuine MMA personalities are taking it somewhat seriously.

    She'd have the same chance Sterling had tonight. :pac:

    50/50?

    You're definitely on the beer. You're seeing double when you read the "Aljo was acting" posts :pac:

    Someone's triggered by a fact. Sterling was not acting. Yan is a cheat. Get over it, move on from being wrong.

    You think nunes could beat a male ufc professional fighter, lol. I think I know who is drunk.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    I’ve gone Jan by KO.

    Very hard to call though and if Izzy pulls off a masterclass here he’s p4p number 1 in my opinion.

    Yan did cheat, I never denied it. Matt Hamilton beat jon jones too , ya ?

    Here we go.

    That's the only fight I want to see now. Schevchenko vs Nunes is the only obvious outcome now.

    And she's already beaten her twice!

    I agree about it being the only option, but it shows how good she is when the only fight that makes any sort of sense is against someone she has already beaten twice.
