Not paying $55.00 to watch her armbar her opponent in less than 2 mins...

Im happy that shes in the UFC, they should put her on a card with another title fight as the main event.

She would make for a great Co-main...

People used to pay for Mike Tyson fights, just to see him K.O his opponent in 30 seconds. That was part of the appeal. I feel the same about Honda. I wanna see her armbar her next opponent. Hell, I hope she wins all of her fights by armbar and retires undefeated. Hickson style.

victorpoprock - Wtf is the matter with you guys saying you will never buy a ppv with a woman's fight? Are you even fans?

I've seen some great fucking fights between women. How could you not want to see Ronda fight in the UFC?

Most of the people here say they won't buy a show headlined by a flyweight or bantamweight men's fight either, so just realize this is the kind of fan you're dealing with.

Hungry4Stink 8 Member Since: 12/26/09 Posts: 1529	Seems to me that the UFC is hoping this will generate a buzz outside of the usual MMA press. ESPN could really become interested and it could get coverage on mainstream news outlets. Might turn out to be a shrewd marketing move and reignite some interest in the UFC among the general public.

I was 1 of those people, if you dont know the difference between Mike Tyson of the late 80s and Ronda of now, youre in a heap of trouble...

Joshua J King Member Since: 9/15/11 Posts: 3448	XxLiveBaitxX - Like to see her on a PPV card but not a PPV Main Event Headliner for her first fight. The women's 135 lb division should be brought along much like the 125 men's flyweight. The women should have a 4 person 135 tourney and crown the champion on a PPV. At the very least 4 women will be introduced to the UFC viewer rather than 2. All of this You have ignored this user.

Malagant 14 Member Since: 6/4/11 Posts: 60	Although it probably wont happen unless she faces cyborg, If she gets one punched or loses embarrassingly in her first match... Whole division wiped out of UFC. Seems like Dana put all his eggs in one basket for the woman's division. You have ignored this user.

A ppv main event should not be between two women. It should be two of the top male fighters in the world.

Although even that hasn't been a priority for the UFC lately. Phone Post

Il Duce 39 Member Since: 2/1/12 Posts: 336	I was at UFC on Fox 4 at Staples in LA, and when Ronda's face was up on the big screens, the place went nuts. More cheers for Ronda than 90% of all other fighters, possibly even the most. I think all the doubters will be disappointed when she's more popular than Cruz or Aldo. You have ignored this user.

Soup and Beer 79 Member Since: 1/1/01 Posts: 15799	I would pay for a Rousy main event. Long before I'd pay to see that disasterous flyweight division they came up with. It's like watching two 4 year olds slap fight. Unbelievably bad. I will not waste my time nor my money on that crap again. You have ignored this user.

Lol, what are you 8 years old? Only an idiot sticks to their guns after circumstances change.

You know what I mean twat waffle and i understand Ronda is a game changer for WMMA.

But headlining a fucking 60 dollar ppv is laughable at this point.

Zuffa has gotten greedy and the only circumstance that changed is there may be money to be made. Dana always said the division was too thin for the UFC and that hasn't changed. Phone Post

TheComedian Member Since: 9/27/05 Posts: 151	This should be hilarious. Can't wait for their 140k ppv buys on this one. I'll make you a bet right now: whatever card they put her as the main event on they put as the co-main event one of their most popular fighters just so people buy the PPV. Mark my words!!!!!
