    Gina's defnitely not a grappler. She kept going for headlocks and that's the first thing you learn NOT TO DO in jiujitsu. Headlocking an opponent is like asking them to take you down to the mat. I couldn't believe she kept doing that.

    Maybe Cyborg's just the difference between a fighter who trains hard and a fighter who . . .

    Cyborg let Gina off so many times I was actually thinking that the fight was fixed. When Gina stood up from a full mount, I was like, ''WTF, did she actually just do that''? Carano was overmatched in a big way. If they rematched, Cyborg would be more calm and confident. It would be over even quicker. The funniest part for me was how down the commentators seemed to be after Carrano lost.

    Most of the opportunities I saw were for really basic stuff like that. When she went for the head lock I was a bit suprised. I don't understand how Cyborg didn't take advantage all the time though, it was blatantly obvious, Gina's balance up close was terrible. All Cyborg had to do was slide her foot across, position it behind Gina's and twist her body and it is pretty much inevitable that she would end up in top mount.

    Gina fought like she was frightened of Cyborg. Looking at Cyborgs features, there is no way this lady isn't or hasn't been doping. There is no way a natural woman has such a pronounced jaw line and masculine features, with low body fat and muscle definition. she just looks juiced.

    Yup! Gina was a bit shook. She didn't fight with confidence which makes her a top Female MMA fighter. She could have done 10 times better if she was mentally prepared but you can't fight a fighter like Cyborg being scared.

    She just got overwhelmed. I wouldn't mind comforting her right now.

    Cyborg vs Carano was like Frazier vs Bob Foster.

    Foster's punches did nothing to Frazier who just steamrolled him on power.

    Carano is too small to fight someone 50 percent stronger than her.

    Plus, I thought Cyborg looks faster than Carano.

    Good point there. But I do feel Carano hurt/stunned Cyborg a few times with her punches. Personally after watching the match I became a bigger fan of Carano. She has nothing to feel ashamed about and I hope Randy tells her that. Obviously she needs to take the sport more seriously on her cardio work. Cyborg was just to physically strong. Does anyone know her weight on fight night? I doubt Carano hydrated much.


    No offence to the Williams sister buecause i'd bone serena if the opportunity came along...but I do feel womens physical MMA evolution will go the way of Tennis.

    In the sense that when the Williams sisters first came into the game they were steam rolling everybody because they were physically stronger and quicker mainly due to frame and dad's training.
    So basically to beat Cyborg the Women are gonna have to do her type of training and show her dedication. Or take her to the ground and submit her. But she's so powerful down there as well. Carano I thought was good on the ground but still got overpowered.
    If carano didnt gas out (mainly due to Cyborg leaning on her) I think she could of won. She looked the better on the ground.

    Im not taking anything away from Cyborg but i;ve seen her train and she's a friggin animal with the type of exercise she does. It explain's her stature and she is very broad. Some women are just built like that Muearesmo, Williams, Sharapova (look at her shoulders there huge!!!)...I could name more.

    I wasn't a fan of womens MMA but after that fight i'm now.
