it’s good to see more weight classes for women in bigger shows. i think the lower weight classes will be where most of the talent is eventually. cyborg and carano are great but it’s not fair when they are cutting while fighting women who are moving up in weight

Cyborg is the best without question

I wont lie and say i am a huge womens mma fan or viewer but, from i have heard in interviews from her opponents and training partners, cyborg is better then her hubby lol. I have also seen her just absolutely murder people on cbs shows.

nar mega megu is

cyborgs been fighting ppl who dont even belong in her weight class, she is tough as nails no doubt

Cyborg is big and strong but.....

from a technical standpoint her grappling sucks, her wrestling is OK and her striking well is OK too. If they were similar size i would take Sarah anyday over her. As stated above tho, Mega megu, Yuka Tsuji and Satako Shinashi are the best chick fighters if you ask me.

I have a huge bugging question

I have sen highlight footage of Lombard and read his fightography and i’ll admit that i am impressed. Is this guy really that good or is he just a big fish in a small pond? would he hang with the UFC elite MWs?

by ThePunisher on Aug 11, 2010 11:48 PM EDT reply actions  

It's hard to say really.

I think he could hang w/ the big boys.

Hadoken!!

I've never seen him in a long fight

I would venture to say he could just based on how others have done. The level of competition in Bellator is pretty high.

mega MEGU

should win this comfortably

by four20 on Aug 12, 2010 1:03 AM EDT reply actions  

Esparza is no scrub, and considering that Bellator got her on such short notice, and considering the quality of this tournament in general, it makes me wonder why the fuck StrikeForce can’t do a better job with their women’s division.

Mega Megu will probably murder Esparza though.

by Chromium on Aug 12, 2010 5:37 AM EDT reply actions  

Yep she's still too green in the sub grappling dept.

A very good wrestler though. I would say sprawl and brawl but don’t know if she’s good enough on the feet to make that work.

Megumi Fujii

I’d hit that.

The Goliath.

          I was Impressed by Neil Grove and his killer Instinct.He didnt give Sanchez a chance when he knocked him down and one hell of a flury of punches.
        It was a good night for fights.I think all went well besides Lombard and his usual KO of a few seconds.That dude Is brutal!
