    Got to give it up for both these ladies. Semper Fi Carmouche, represented the Corps very well tonight!

    That triangle was beautiful, if Carmouche had a little better gnp she would have been able to finish. She was throwing some girly punches during her mauling. Still very entertaining fight to watch, still very technical.

    Carmouche did very well, just got a little reckless with her takedowns in a fight she was dominating. It's a pity she doesn't have much power - Coenen got up and walked away pretty easily after being mounted for two and a half minutes.

    I like Coenen though, she's rock solid mentally and always looks for the submission, no matter how badly she's getting her ass kicked. Women's 135lbs might not be one of the sport's glamour divisions, but she's a worthy champion.

    That was a great fight as well, Coenen was getting pummeled, albeit not very hard punches but for the better part of 2 1/2 rounds. Showed tremendous fortitude in pulling out that sub. As for Carmouche she showed and determination of a real fighter just abit reckless with her offense. If she controlled her gnp alittle bit better she would have won but as Koa said, she started throwing girly punch towards the end. Great fight by both ladies though.

    It wont. Dana doesn't like womens MMA. Shame as iv seen some great womens fights. Matter of fact id go as far as to say some can be much more entertaining head to head than mens fights.

    I know it won't happen, but it's just the perfect exemple I think of why DW just doesn't care about the sport and only about is bank account.

    Women can be ****in entertaining and hungry for a win. FFS Cyborg look like a ****in monster I can't wait to see a fight when somebody is gonna be able to trade with her !:D

    Womens MMA is at a MUCH better standard than womens boxing. Coenan, Cyborg etc I would watch these women.

    Excellent fight, and very good finish, for me a good fight is based on a lot of things but gender isn't one of them.

    If the UFC continues with the policy not to show female fights.....simply because "there girls" then it just shows how backwards that organization really is............

    Are you serious? Let them have their own cards and we'll see how well it does for ratings, close to **** all I'd imagine. Strikeforce is a joke promoting this ****.

    AS a viewer i have no interest in watching it. I accept that this is because i have been conditioned this way by social pressures. But accepting im in the wrong and doing something about it are different kettles of fish. HOWEVER you must admit it is sexist and backwards to not show it/suggest it should be banned. That being said if there isnt a market for it it isnt going to get shown.
