I also loved Pride and would definitely be down for Fedor to fight in the UFC providing he still has the chops. Retirement tends to ruin fighters usually due to age or just being so long out of the ring.

Something about Fedor makes me think he would still be a badass, time off or not.

Do these come reinforced for MMA? Because I think both fighters would need them in that rematch.

Holy shit, is that 3 title fights and 2 #1 contender fights in a single ppv?

Of course by the time the PPV rolls around 7 of those fights will be rescheduled due to training injuries.

Cyborg offers to drop to 140 pounds to fight Ronda Rousey - The Washington Post

The "fight of the century" will not be remembered as Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao. It will be Ronda Rousey vs. Cris "Cyborg" Justino - if it ever happens.

For years, the two have bickered about how and when they want to meet in the Octagon. Rousey, who fights at 135 pounds, has said multiple times that she'd take on Cyborg if she can make weight.

Cyborg, however, has said the same thing. She fights at 145 pounds and on Wednesday she reiterated that she'd be willing to drop five pounds to see Rousey in the ring.

"Ronda Rousey already cleaned out her division and she's doing fight number three with Miesha Tate and this shows for us she already cleaned the division," Cyborg said on ESPN SportsCenter. "When a champ cleans out a division, everybody saw this, the champ goes up to fight somebody else. I'm a champion at 145 and I can drop to 140 to fight her."

Cyborg said her willingness to drop five pounds is already an unprecedented compromise. She said most champions in Rousey's situation would move up to a higher weight class having cleaned out their own - an argument that some find null and void if they look at Cyborg's career, which mirrors Rousey's in that she's also cleaned out her division...
Online Sportsbook Pegs Ronda Rousey as Big Favorite Over Cris Cyborg - Sherdog

Let the games begin.

Though far from official as Cris Cyborg has yet to make 135 pounds nor debut with the Ultimate Fighting Championship, online sportsbook Bovada.lv has set the odds in a potential megafight with UFC 135-pound women's champion Ronda Rousey.

Rousey opens as a -375 favorite (4/15), which means a gamer would need to bet $375 on the champion to win $100. Justino is at +280 (14/5), which equates to a $100 wager netting $280 should she take out the undefeated kingpin.

The 28-year-old face of women's mixed martial arts is likely to lock horns with Miesha Tate for a third time before a superfight comes to fruition, however. Given her previous two victories over Tate, the opening odds are quite wide at -1000 (10/1) for Rousey and +600 (6/1) for Tate.

Rousey -1000 (10/1)
Tate +600 (6/1)

Since this is Rousey's third fight with Tate, I think we all agree they should go Roman style, buck nekkid, just to make that bout interesting.

If she fights Cyborg, Cyborg must wear a codpiece.

I'm assuming genetic testing can still determine if a man is a man even after hrt/surgery/etc.? If so, i'd say Ronda should probably push for said testing on Cyborg before they fight cause like I said before, Brazil has a lot of trannies (and Cyborg is one of them).

I'm not sure if I want to see Ronda fight naked or not... Sometimes I think she looks good and other times not so much.
