Same weight - Shouldn't matter. Prove you're THE BEST in the world. Isn't this a step towards equality? As for "feeling horrible if a man KO's a woman. Sure it might not be pleasant to watch, but that's only because men are on such a higher tier than women ATM at least, it would seem like an unfair KO. But they should know what sport they're signing up for. I'm against women's MMA, I don't like "women's divisions" or "seniors" divisions at the highest level. If Rousey goes out and smashes Renan Barao and other men at her weight in the ufc ill support her, and probably be her biggest fan. Because then, and only then will she be breaking barriers for women in MMA.
My instinct is to protect women. I would hate to see one get the shit kicked out of her by a man.
just to get a bit of order in what i wanna say. most important first.
1. rousey is damn fine!
2. wvm mma for the guys would be a social defeat either way, just bad for their career. they win and all the ahters come out and say pfft u bet up a girl, thats not cool man. and they lose then they lost to a girl no matter what the girls star potential is and then theyre that guy that lost to a girl.
3. rousey could kill some of the bantamweight mens division, and so far we havnt really seen her struggle yet in her fights, which leaves her potential very open. (like her legs when i meet her) :D did i metion shes hot
4. weight and strength difference not to mention size and reach difference isnt anything new, look at say the heavyweight champion cain velasquez. pretty much everyone in that division is in any other wieghtclass two classes ahead of him. its ridiculous. and then u have mark hunt who has the weight of the other fighters but his height and reach is tiny, he still kills those guys. so while its a disadvantage to be the smaller guy/girl i dont see it stopping them solely because of that.
5. whats the dudes name that said he could beat ronda rousey? miesha tates boyfriend? not that hes anywhere near top contender material but she would smash him to shit. and take his arms. i could almost imagine her finsihing him with a sorcerer just so she could take both arms home. :D
A man is a man and a woman is a woman. But a fighter is a fighter, and fighters really don't give a f*** what sex they are.. :-)
