Yeah i looked it up- is he still fighting in ufc? I noted matt mitrione got suspended briefly for calling him sick demented or some such thing lol-

[chris37]

I am not sure that he was ever in the UFC, because this would truly be a case of men fighting women, and I’m pretty sure White said he did not want to go there.

But I could be wrong.

Mitrione did get suspended, but Rhonda Rousey after Mitrione’s comments,was a bit more diplomatic in her rejection of that thing fighting in the UFC, and I think that made Dana reconsider.

There was a tranny fighter OUTSIDE the UFC in the minor leagues named Fallon Fox (oddly “she” is a lesbian and a father, lol) the “Queen of Swords” (lol!). Lots of people were talking about that, including Joe Rogan. “She” started 3-0, then lost to real girl Ashlee Evans-Smith (now in the UFC), “she” won 2 more fights after that but hasn’t fought since 2014. Real name, Boyd Burton (lol).

Cris Cyborg is just a steroid monster and not very good looking. She used to be married to fighter Evangelista Santos, and copied his nickname, Cyborg.

I remember the Fox/Evans-Smith fight, the cheers for Evans-Smith were deafening! She knocked him out!

I hope so- I hoep that is their attitude towards it- but with the olympics allowing men to compete as women now- there’s gonna be a big PC push to have it in most sports now- that will almost ruin the UFC for me- (I’ll just record the events and skip those matches)

[Bob434]

Thanks- wasn’t sure if he made it to the UFC or not- i knew there was a bunch of controversy over it and remembered thinking it would ruin the UFC if they went down that path- The steroid issue is bad enough- but men fighting as women is beyond the pale in my book- A man has to be a pretty low character to want to fight women
