I don't know if she did anything to win a round 10-8, but that was an ass whopping from start to finish.

I hate when people say a guy should retire just because they lost a fight, but I think it's time for Lamas. He's 37, he's 1-4 in his last 5 fights, he's been KO'ed 3 times in that stretch, he's on the prelims. It's not as ugly as BJ Penn, but what more does he really have left?

He's fighting tough guys though. Lamas still beats most of the division.

Same for KK too, actually. Karolina's in the same spot.

I don't hate WMMA. I like the build up and stuff, but they rarely deliver.

Sterling looks good.
The lack of power leads to a lot of decisions and therefore not as much of a "anything can happen at any time" type of excitement when watching. There are exceptions of course, but generally speaking.

Sterling looks just to fast and athletic right now. Let's see if his cardio let's him keep that up or if he starts to slow down. Munhoz is dangerous.

Sterling looks great but Munhoz is tough as hell.

Good fight. Sterling on deer legs though.

Sterling is slowing down by the minute and has to be getting frustrated by the toughness of Munhoz.

Yeah, I guess. He's actually 2-3 in his last 5. I read that wrong before.

KK just doesn't seem to be progressing much. I don't think she's in danger of getting cut because she is fighting top ranked girls, but it's hard to see her getting back to a title shot, too.

That's about as high of a level of MMA as you'll see on a prelim card. Two great fighters improving every fight and near the top of the division.

Great leg kicks by Munhoz, but judges don't ever care about those. 29-28 Sterling - great fight.

That first round was one of the best we've seen from Sterling. He got hit more and slowed down as the fight went on but he also still landed plenty in rounds two and three. I think he should take it 29-28 or maybe even 30-27.

Gotta agree. Sterling should have that. Great fight, though. Thought Munhoz was turning the tide there, but Sterling stayed strong.

Him and Kevin Lee train together in NY. They bite off more than they can chew. They are cringe.

I'm fully on the Suarez hype train, but my only concern is that EVERYBODY is saying she's the future champ. I've seen a few interviews where she acknowledges that and basically agreed. Confidence is good as long as she's not looking past anybody.

She looks chinny,

Agreed with Rogan and DC. Good defensive wrestling by Ansaroff, but that doesn't score you points with the judges.

Suarez is good at everything except attacking. She's the Dominick Cruz of WMMA
