They may be coming off losses but they are young, fit, blue eyed, blonde haired, good looking, all American types. Just like Ronda. Mark my words, they will attempt to make them bigger than Rousey.
She was never really a great fighter, her weapons were a strong hip toss followed by an arm bar. Not a mixed martial artist like most in the UFC are. Her looks and attitude got her where she is just as much as her results. The UFC and ESPN created her image and i still laugh at Joe Rogan describing her as "not just a once in a generation fighter…but a once in forever fighter". LOL. They even claimed she could beat half the men on their books and backed her claim she could take out Mayweather after the Pacman had recently failed. All this hype helped her become the cross over star she is.
The UFC is all about PPV subscribers these days more than finding out who the best MMA fighters on the planet are. White even said as much when quizzed as to why the champion wasnt even mentioned in the 207 promos. "No one knows who Amanda Nunes is"...At first i thought it was disrespectful to elavate Rousey to challenger when she hadnt fought in 13 months whilst those in the division were busting their guts for a shot and improving every day. Now i think it was negligent and they used that woman for their own selfish ends. She was totally outclassed, totally out managed and totally humiliated. I hope she retires...not just for her own sake but for the sport. Her biased promotion over others made the sport lose respect with true fight fans.
