They did the same with Jose Aldo.

Hopefully they do like a Ladies Night type deal. That way we can avoid the whole card all together. It's gonna blow, but odds are they're gonna be replacing some good quality men's bouts as they try to jam the women's **** down our throats.

Blah. Too soon. Hope they buy out IFC

Rousey is saying that the reports are untrue that he hasn't even had negotiations with the UFC.

Tate signed..

I haven't seen that just that she hopes to get signed by the UFC.

unless they get Cyborg and Rousey to fight, I have no ****s to give

Yeah right, White is just playing politics here.

Strikeforce done women are done.

So now that Rousey is signed, looks like the women can get in line.

lol. I dont care anymore. RR will lose and dana love for womens mma will go away

If it wasn't official before, it is now.

She was just handed the title at the UFC on FOX 5 press conference and she will fight and headline UFC 157 vs Liz Carmouche.

Not sure if this is the right move, I could understand having her headline a fight vs Cyborg, but vs Liz?

The UFC better know what they're doing...

WAIT.

That piece of **** is going to headline a card and Hendo vs. Machida isn't?

If Hendo vs. Machida isn't a 5 rounder, I hope nobody buys that garbage.

It's not, and that benefits Henderson greatly, cause he's a 2 round fighter at best.

Dana being brutally honest about the women's division:

The only reason this is happening is because of Ronda Rousey.
