But she was only 57% accurate, throwing a frightening 158 total bombs in the opening frame alone. The Brazilian terror finished with a total of 141 out of 236 total strikes (60%) including 63 "power strikes" and six knockdowns.

I'm not into women's mma at all
but this was a good fight that could have been stopped a million times. I was almost expecting Finnie to pull of some sort of submission as the fight went on.
nah she survived well enough i think, the ref did nothing wrong finnie kept fighting back and pushing forward. i kinda like this new lady ref, better than that guy with the porno mustache anyway

Can we be done with chick fighting already?
Seriously, enough already. I don’t need to see it, it’s not competitive and nobody gives a shit about it unless one or both of the girls fighting are hot. Do you think Jan Finney (with an 8-7 record) got this fight on merit? Did Scott Coker and Ken Hershman sit down, have a brainstorming session and pick Finney because they thought she was a worthy opponent or because they thought she earned it? Fuck no, “cuddles” got the fight because she’s a good looking piece of ass.
I’m all for hot chicks in MMA……….. CARRYING THE RING CARDS IN BETWEEN ROUNDS.
women should have the same right to compete and play like the boys. but some sports are more girly and manly. women cagefighting not so much, men figure skating not so much either. but dont take away there right
Scott Coker: "With loss to Werdum, Fedor is ready for title shot."
They can do it all they want.....
Just don’t force me, the consumer to pay for it by putting it on the main card.
they dont force you to buy the card
but cyborg is prolly the most badass women on planet earth, and lots of ppl still lik seeing her dish out beatings. but yeah womens sports wont ever be as big as mens in mma. if there were 2 womens fights on a main card that would suck

Agreed with you 100% SB.

The referee should get suspended behind that. That was an insane amount of punishment for someone to take.
My legend precedes me like lighting precedes thunder.
I haven't heard Finnie complain
and everytime she got dropped, she grabbed a leg and defended. I’m the first to say it was a late stoppage and I rarely believe there is a such thing as stopping a fight too soon. I for one had no issues with that fight
she grabbed a leg, but she was not defending intelligently...
She just wrapped onto an ankle and held on for dear life. It was clearly evident that she was far outmatched. A stoppage would have been justified numerous times throughout the fight.
’’They've done studies you know... 60% of the Time, it works every Time...’’ – Brian Fantana
being outmatched is not a reason for stoppage.
Cyborg wasn’t landing clean on her so let it go i say.

I think this fight shouldve been stopped
at least by the 1st min in the 2rnd… this type of punishment is how boxers get “punch drunk” brain damage…no need for that in MMA… I like this new ref, she controls the fight well for the most part, but she needs to know when enough is enough.
theres womens mma
And then there is cyborg…I’d love to see the difference in testosterone levels between these two…lol….it just doesn’t even seem fair…cyborg is tuckin an taping, dammit…she has a weener, and the scam has gone on long enough

anyone think cyborg might be able to be competitive against men?
… I mean, minus the genitalia she basically is a dude.
A roided up cyborg vs a clean average 145er….I’d say more competetive than most would think

who knows really
I’m no doctor but aren’t the differences in physical attributes between male n female pretty much due to testosterone/estrogen levels? If she spikes hers high enough for a long enough period…she is basically a dude…minus junk

from what I understand yes...
but either way I know there is no way in hell she could take on any legitimate competition, but would love to see her matched up with some low-end 145er (loser must get sex change haha)
This fight should of never been sanctioned. Seriously who thought it was a good idea to throw this 8-7 tomato can in with that crazed he/she.
well finney was on a 4 fight winning streak with a big win to get to
the finals of CFC tournament. The winner of this tourney was suppose to get a shot at Sarah Kaufman’s 135 belt but instead Coker decided pluck her from the tourney before her final fight and make her fight cyborg at 145.

145 is generally the highest definitive weight class but back in the day
there were bigger broads fighting at 170-190. It’s also like the men’s HW use to be a couple of years back the thinnest division. Cyborg definitely cuts from like 156-158 range (just like urijah for comparison).

Amazing fight...
I was in the crowd and everyone was kind of looking through their fingers as this one went on.
A couple of clean shots, caused a collective , “OH!” fromt he crowd.
“Cuddles” is one tough chica.
Those were quality right hands from Finney
Just didn’t work against Cyborg.

Cyborg should be taking on Strikeforce Light heavy weight roster. Ibet she wud kick Aokis ass.
Shogun will have the longest championship reing in the UFC
If nothing else, the one thing we're finding out with Cris Cyborg
is that women can take a hell of a lot of punishment. That seems to be the same thing said about all her opponents…“she had a lot of heart”. lol She’s making them famous.

Meh. Its examples like this that give anti-MMA people alot of ammunition. Its was brutal and not a sporting event, IMO.

Why does a female MMA bout need a female referee??
I found that a bit funny, I don’t think refereeing is very gender-specific
i dont blame the ref for not stopping it. finally got to watch it on yout-tube at work today.
i think finney deserves credit for having the heart to keep coming back.
