Spud and they're right to do so I do'nt know how they create UFC cards but when they put some women in main cards that stop the momentum and at the disavdvantage of entertaining boy fights it infuriates me

Love the urgency in Eubanks this third round, unlike Tukhugov....

I don’t know why your getting downvoted your right. When you see someone like Paige or waterson on the main card above guys in the top 10 of their division or something like luque vs price on the prelims the hype that fight gives you gets killed with the point fighting headlock throws and holding eachother against the fence. Male fighters do some of that stuff to but less often. I don’t mean it in a sexist way but the more talented fighter should be higher up the card regardless of division and that is very rarely women. I can only think of 10 off the top of my head that belong on a main card

If anyone can tell me 10 female fighters who Deserve to be on the main card more than ranked male fighters in terms of skill I will forever be quiet about the topic and no eye candy doesn’t make it a yes that’s not what people should want to be watched for. I watch mma for skill or good fights
