Honestly, I was against women’s MMA at first…I’m still not the biggest fan. However, I’ve been able to appreciate what most of them bring to the table. I think they should have 5 min rounds just like the guys…
The future of women’s mma is uncertain that’s for sure. After Cyborg/Carano then what? Will Strikeforce invest in creating other contenders to fight the winner of that fight? If so, will they be successful? What if Carano loses(that’s a big possiblity)…how are they going to market a non English speaking female that looks dude ish?

I just didn’t like seeing the women all busted up…bloody and whatnot…regardless of if they were attractive or not.

why are we not talking about tara larossa?
she would destroy both of these chicks man. shit even mma barbie will beat gina. don’t believe the hype boys. go to best buy and get bodog fight dvds, great women mma fights
why are we not talking about tara larossa?
Because Strikeforce wants you to believe that Carano/Cyborg are the be all end all of women’s MMA.
