Am I the only one that thinks they need to do something with the sports bra/grappling shirt thing. It's either one or the other. I'm sure some feel more comfortable in one and vice versa but the friction your getting from that grappling shirt thing has to be an unfair advantage.

Obviously that wasn't the case in this fight...

Seriously... the women's fights have all pretty entertaining so far.  Dana White definitely made the good call to add a women's division.

The fact that Sheila even remotely put up a fight in the clinch even if it was only for 5-10 seconds convinces me that Ronda would beat Sara soundly. You give her a second and you're already mid air about to land on your head after being hip tossed.
