Ronda is only an inch taller than Joanna, I think she could make the cut.
She's already cutting pretty seriously to get to 135 and she fought in Judo at like 154. She's not hitting 115 without cutting off something.

....MOTHERFUCKER!

Whatever, give him Mendes or Edgar and see if he can shut everyone up about not earning his spot.

So we were watching some of fights a few nights ago and I have a question that I can't find on google for whatever reason.

WTF is the reset? Dude is on top of another, generally beating his ass but its kind of starting to languish to a bad porno as they are jostling for position / holds. Sometimes the Ref will come in and reset the situation and force them to both get up and start fresh.

Kind of curious on that and if there is any scoring penalty for it or what the deal is? I mean it seems to be a huge disadvantage to the guy on top to let the opponent get back up. The fights I saw it didn't matter much because they usually ended up right back there but is there some hard and fast rule of X time without Y and reset happens or is in based on ref feels?

What the fuck kind of training camp are you running where you break your ribs? I mean I can sort of understand a lot of the injuries, even though I bet most of them would go away if these camps had someone with a kinesiology degree, but how the fuck do you break your ribs?

Happened with one of my guys when he got kicked during sparring. A bit of a freak accident.

If Aldo is officially ruled out, I have a feeling that Frankie Edgar is going to get the call to step in and fight McGregor for an interim belt.

I could definitely see them putting Frankie in to fight, but I doubt they would make it an interim belt. It isn't like Aldo has been out for that long, he did fight in October.

And that prediction by Conor is pretty damn funny

Conor would finish Frankie with ease. I know Frankie always fights with a size disadvantage, but this would be extreme.

Interim belt would be dumb. It's not like this is HW where no one can defend it more than twice anyway. Jose is the only featherweight champ ever and he fought in October. I know he gets injured a lot but he doesn't deserve to have the belt taken from him. They let Cain sit around injured for two years.
