gina cause she’s hotter.
She wont look as hot after tonight, it’s gonna be a war.
Why do so many people only consider the looks of the female fighters? This ain’t a beauty contest.
That guy Gina is fighting looks pretty tough. Looks like he can take a punch. Gina’s pretty tough agreeing to fight a man.
and the new inter-gender champion is…
Good to see you around, surfingk5.
Thank you sir. Hopefully for a while I’ll be able to contribute a wise crack now and again…nothing of substance though…no worries.
HAHA!
I dont think Gina can handle Cyborg, she’s tough…power, aggressive and accurate.
I’m thinking KO in the first or early second round, Gina has fought a lot of smaller wrestler types and this will be a much different fight for her.
I like Gina and much prefer to look at her, but I don’t see any way she wins this.
Welcome back SurfingK5 how are things?
Just got done with a late lunch and back at the Crowne hotel absolutely can’t wait to get to the HP to see these fights! It is simply going to be great.. Cheers gents
If you watch the weigh-ins, Gina is acting like she’s on some fashion runway while Cyborg looks all business. Gina is gonna get her shapely butt handed to her by Cyborg.
There isn’t shhh going on rightnow just playing some music and we are quite sometime from Heiron v Coo Coo the peeing monkey. Soooo that’s bout that, the fights have been pretty decent we are some time from the main card!
Broadcast is supposed to start at 10pm EST, so just about 10 minutes before then.
Taylor and Heiron on now, Urijah just walked in and he has on no casts he is a star
Heiron wns rd 1 ground control, the booing is tarded!
Same round again but this time Heiron went for subs
Rooting for Heiron!
Jay outclasses CooCoo and wins via dominant performance the boos should be for coocoo
Werdum gets the W, but took a lot of damage to get there. Not that impressive though.
Nice job by Melendez, pretty dominant in his win over Ishida.
HOLY CRAP! Mousasi is freaking legit. He just owned Sobral.
Thank you Gents it’s good to be mostly back. Just a temporary change in job here that allows me to be a part time slack ass. Still in the sandbox though. Soon to be home though!
So what’s the status on the fight???
My girlfriend Gina that is…
Guyborg TKOed her. Lots of action, but I expected a little more out of Gina. Guyborg was too strong.
“Guyborg”? What happened to no fighter bashing? Or does that not extend to the ladies…?
Wow. Looks like Gina needs a different game plan when dealing with faster and stronger opponents. Better luck next time.
awe man…
Gina should stick to fighting females
LOL.
Regardless of her loss Gina still did great. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Cris take that many punches before. Congrats to Cyborg though
A couple of good fights but our broadcast started at 7:30 and ended at 9:20, i feel sort of shorted with only 4 fights on the card at 39.99.
