At UFC 207: Nunes vs Rousey, on December 30, 2016 at T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, we get...well... Ronda Rousey vs Amanda Nunes.
I quit trying to predict MMA fights a long time ago.
Actually after Strikeforce: Carano vs. Cyborg...I just gave up.


Amanda is 13-4-0 and coming off a 4 win streak.


This will be Ronda's first fight since her loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193 - Rousey vs. Holm in November of 2015.

Well it's a good thing that I didn't predict the UFC 207: Nunes vs Rousey fight.
Again.
I really thought that Amanda would win...but not in 48 seconds with a KO.





And I really didn't think that Amanda would almost immediately go to Twitter and post this....






And here I thought Ronda was a bad sport.

Megan Anderson (7-2) will take on Charmaine Tweet (9-5) at Invicta FC 21 in a 145-pound main event on Saturday, January 14th in Kansas City.
One....I don't guess who will win anymore in MMA fights.
Have I even been right yet?
Two...I like both of these ladies.
So I don't want to say that either will win.

On Saturday night, April 15 2017, Rose "Thug Rose" Namajunas pounded Michelle "The Karate Hottie" Waterson at UFC on FOX 24 live on FOX from inside Sprint Center in Kansas City, Missouri
Michelle got a sweep takedown in the first round but after that it was all Rose.
She gave the "Karate Hottie" a head kick that floored her and from there it was ground-and-pound and a rear-naked choke finish.
Rose now goes to on to face the winner of the Joanna Jedrzejczyk vs. Jessica Andrade fight later this year.

Also, as opposed to some MMA fights we have seen lately, these two ladies showed real class after the fight.

Well she may not have defeated Cris Cyborg at UFC 222, but Yana Kunitskaya showed that she was a force to be reckoned with.
She put up a hell of a fight against the unstoppable UFC Women's Featherweight Champion.
Early on when Yana turned a punch into a takedown , I imagine a few people were a little stunned.
Cris won of course, but Yana didnt go down easy.
Yama's MMA record stands at 10-4-1.
