My Dad is elderly and is non applicable. I have and do fight by Brother in like manner. He is a jailer and I taught him a few things that helped him in his profession.
If nothing else MMA is research and development for those in law enforcement.
When it comes to self defense I would think conservatives would be even more inclined to learn and practice it than the more pussified liberals.
Well put
Next up:
Welterweight
Rory MacDonald (15-2) vs. Demian Maia (18-5) MacDonald is odds on favorite.
I like Demian.
Odds makers have been prophetic, but I will go out on a limb here with Maia.
I can’t wait for the main event.
I’m pulling for Demian as well.
Great fight! Most excitement all night imo.
Indeed
MacDonalds conditioning coming into play here. Does not bode well for Maia.
That’s what I was afraid of.
those five minute rounds don’t seem much to the average fan but if you’re one who’s doing the fighting it can seem like forever.
Could possibly be the fight of the night.
Yeah they are.
Next up: Co Main event:
Light Heavyweight
Daniel Cormier (13-0) vs. Patrick Cummins (4-0)
Cormiers debut at Light Heavyweight.
Daniel C absolutely kicked ass at Heavyweight but he trains with Cain Velasquez and would not even consider fighting his friend so he dropped a weight class to 205.
I believe he will destroy this division.
I totally called that one.
Jon Jones better look out.
Next up:
MAIN EVENT:
Women's Bantamweight Championship
Ronda Rousey (c) (8-0) vs. Sara McMann (7-0)
Excellent match up.
Rousey odds on favorite in a big way.
Normally I would predict Rousey by submission round 1 (by armbar) but she has been working on her stand up and wants a KO.
That changes everything giving McMann a fighting chance.
This fight could go either way. Sara has as good of a chance as anyone short of Chris Cyborg.
This is a history making fight being a womans mma main event.
Edge goes to Rousey.
