Oh dear - Rousey is an insane conspiracy nut. That sucks.

Tweeted this video:



with the endorsement "Extremely interesting must watch video".

And then Rousey's manager's statement?

I don't know if it's the truth or not. I'm not an investigator, but it seemed to me that if that Bushmaster (rifle) really was sitting in the trunk of a car, and the guy killed himself inside the school, how would the gun end up in the trunk of a car? Maybe it's just bulls--- facts. I didn't investigate it. I think Ronda thought it was interesting and retweeted it, and that was the extent of it. I don't think she was saying the mainstream press was wrong. It was just a different perspective.

Well, that sucks. People can believe what they like, but it sucks when someone whose public persona you like believes something so stupid.

Rousey is a big figure in MMA. This by itself has put me right off her. I still enjoy her in the cage, but seeing this, my opinion of her has changed fairly dramatically. Others may well feel the same.

Besides, we are free to talk about upcoming fights. But there's been little discussion about Bisping-Belfort. Wait for 24 hours and I'm sure that there will be plenty more actual fighting to talk about.

RFA 6 is on right now, so there are fights to talk about as we speak.

Anyone else watching RFA 6?

No she aint, her PPV figures will be amongst the lowest in Zuffa history. The only fight that matters with her is with Santos

Dont get me wrong she is a very good womens fighter. I do respect what she has done for the sport...but...fill in the blanks...until she beats a clean Cyborg then she should just keep her mouth shut in regards to talking shit about her male equivalents

She taps Christine she can talk all the shit she wants as far as Im concerned...other wise get in the ring with Penn, Kos, Condit ect... they paved the way for yr blonde ass to make a living in MMA

Quite possibly. Though Hendo and Machida will help her somewhat.

However, like it or not, she is one of the most high-profile MMA fighters in terms of crossover media coverage. She makes it onto the covers of major magazines and she gets mainstream press coverage.

The rest of it, sure. And she shouldn't talk shit about GSP, because the brutal truth is that the level of competition he has defeated is light years above the level of competition she has available. Sucks to be a girl, but unfortunately Aldo would decimate Rousey and Cyborg both.

Meh...she's the MMA Johnstown...if you want to talk shit about GSP...Fuckin fight him...

One of the problems with jits guys is they are working to advance from guard rather than strike and force the ref stoppage

1-1 for me but probably 2-0 for Brock, how you score it rob?

Round a piece, but it's been almost entirely a positional battle. Not a whole lot separating the two.

[Rob_Floyd]

Pamplona definitely won the third. He should take it 2-1.

[Stoo]

Its rare a jits guy has more gas in the 3rd than a wrelter, even though Brock finished strong...2-1 for me

[Rob_Floyd]

Eh, it was close enough fight that I'm not upset with the decision.

[Stoo]

Bad decision, ignored that Brock was fighting off the subs/sweeps in the 1st...
